42
Q

increased

43
Q

44
Q

  2. Heart rate increases
  3. Stroke Volume increases
  4. Blood Viscosity increases
  5. Peripheral resistance increases
45
Q

What is the construction system of the heart?

A

Electrical activity of the heart;
It makes the heartbeat

46
Q

Which contracts first? Atrium or Ventrical?

A

Atrium

47
Q

What is the path of the heart’s construction system?

A
  1. Sinoatrial Mode (SA Node)——Pacemaker
  2. Atrioventricular node (AV node) — depolarizes vent. ventricular filling
  3. Av Bundle
  4. Bundle Branches—
  5. Purkinje Fibers
48
Q

What is cardiac Output (Q)?

A

The amount of blood pumped by the heart is each minute.

49
Q

How to calculate Cardiac output?

A

Heart rate and stroke volume
Q = HR x SV

Cardiac output = Heart rate x Stroke Volume

50
Q

What is stroke volume

A

Blood ejected in each beat

51
Q

Do females or males have larger hearts?

At rest, females eject — L/min
At rest male __ L/min

REGARDLESS OF TRAINING STATUS

A

males, so they can eject more blood

Male = 5 L/min
Female = 4.5 L/min

52
Q

Exercise increases Q by a factor
of ____ For untrained adults
and ___ for trained adults

A

Untrained = 5
Trained = 6-7

Highly trained people have high cardiac output, to get oxygen and nutrients with other muscles.

53
Q

What hormones regulate the heart rate?
Which nerve stimulates it? What does the nerve do?

A

Parasympathetic nervous system
(Via Vagus nerve) ––Which is a cranial nerve
—Promotes rest —Slows down heart
rate.
—Slows HR by inhibiting the SA and AV
node

Elevated parasympathetic tone = low HR

Sympathetic nervous system
(Cardiac accelerator nerve) Spinal cord
—Increases HR by stimulating SA and AV node

54
Q

What increases your heart rate?

A

Initial increase due to parasympathetic withdrawal

(Up to 100 BPM)

55
Q

Parasympathetic withdrawal

A

— It decreases your heart rate.

56
Q

Beta-blockers.
What is it used for?
What binds to beta receptors?
What is its function, and why do we need it?

A

It’s a drug that people use.

—It blocks the beat receptors, which epinephrine and norepinephrine bind to.

— It reduces heart rate and lowers myocardial oxygen demand. (It reduces HR)

      (The heart doesn't need as much muscle oxygen 
                                 to prevent damage)
57
Q

What is End-diastolic volume (EDV)?

A

It is the blood that is being ejected from the (Left) ventricle at the end of diastole.

Blood is known as (pre-load)

58
Q

What is Average aortic blood pressure?

A

It is the pressure in the heart that ejects the blood.

                                  (Afterload)
59
Q

Strength of the ventricular contraction (contractility) is enhanced by….

A
  1. Circulating epinephrine and norepinephrine
  2. Direct sympathetic stimulation of the heart
  3. Frank-Starling Mechanism
60
Q

What is the Frank-Starling Mechanism?

A

Greater EDV results in a more forceful contraction Due to the stretch of ventricles
(More blood returning to the heart)

(Stretch muscle to have a more forceful contraction)

61
Q

What is Vasoconstriction? What does it do?

A

Promotes more blood flow by…
Via SNS

62
Q

Skeletal muscle pump

A

Every time it contracts, it squeezes blood through veins, which goes back to the heart.

63
Q

Respiratory pump
