(212 cards)
blood vessels containing blood flowing to the heart
veins
blood vessels containing blood flowing from the heart
arteries
from the right ventricle, deoxygenated blood is pumped through WHAT and then WHAT
pulmonary valve then pul artery
primary function of the respiratory system
gas exchange
right side
into the lungs
left side
system
main pump of the heart
left ventricle
lowest volume system; responsible for the gas exchange
capillaries
govern the flow of blood in the vascular system.
principles of blood flow- look over this in book
Pressure Difference/Resistance
flow
between two ends of a vessel
pressure difference
causes of resistance of blood flow
sickle cell anemia, peripheral artery disease, mi
Distance measurement speed at which blood flows through the vessel
velocity
heart rate should be
60-100
the smaller the lumen
the higher the flow
velocity, cross-sec, and flow
velocity=flow rate over cross sectional
The relationship between the wall tension of a vessel, its intraluminal pressure, and its radius
law of laplace
Ability of a blood vessel to be stretched and accommodate an increased volume of blood
distensibility
depolarization of atria
P
depolarization of ventricles
QRS
repolarization of ventricles
ST
QT interval
de and repolarization of ventricles
baseline is also the
isoelectric line
PR segment
Impulse travel through AVN
