Term
 
Cardiac Output (CO) vs. Cardiac Index (CI)
Definition
CO=vol. of blood pumped by L per unit time (min)
Normal=5 L/min
 
CI=CO in proportion to body size (surface area); CO/m^2
Normal=3 L/min/m^2
Hence, average body SA=1.67 m^2 
Term
 
Factors affecting normal/basal CI (4): 
Definition
1. Body surface area (different slide)
2. AGE:
Birth=2.4, 10y/o=4-4.5 (max), then slow decline back to ~2.4 by 80 y/o (this decline can be slowed significantly in very active people) (see graph, p. 280)
3. Metabolic rate of individual (thyroid, fever, etc.)
4. Exercise
Term
 
Relationships between CO and:
 
1. Venous return (VR)
2. Tissue oxygen consumption 
Definition
 Tissue oxygen demand-->VR-->CO
 
1. Increased tissue oxygen demand drives arteriolar vasodilation (local control; oxygen theory)-->decreased Total peripheral resistance (TPR)
2.  VR increases b/c TPR decreases while CO is constant or elevated (blood shifts: arterial to venous circulation) 
3.  Increased VR drives incrased CO (heart ALWAYS pumps out what it receives...up to a limit)
Hence, VR=CO always unless there is damming up of blood somewhere in the circulation, or volume is being added to/extracted from total (conservation of mass idea) 
 
Term
 
Starling Law of the Heart: 
Definition
The heart pumps all blood returned to it up to a limit (VR=CO).
Term
 
CO and/or CI directly related to: (2)
Definition
1. Work output of heart
2. Tissue oxygen demand (whch determines VR)
 
Hence, CO is determined almost ENTIRELY by the sum of factors affecting peripheral resistance to blood flow /VR. 
Term
 
Notes on Starling curves: 
Definition
1. Initial steep slope means: a small change in right atrial (filling) pressure (RAP) translates into a LARGE change in CO (this is good)
 
2. Increased VR-->RAP-->diastolic end pressure-->CO
 
3. Also: heart fibers exhibit the same Length-Tension (L-T) relationship as skeletal mm. (in terms of a single sarcomere), however, the heart muscle does not stretch to the point of actin-myosin non-overlap like skeletal... 
Term
1.  BE ABLE TO DRAW A NORMAL STARLING CURVE FROM MEMORY
 
2. Limits of Starling curve affected by neural control, physical control/modification
Definition
1.  Start: -2mmHg, 0 L/min, normal max=13 L/min, limit reached by ~+2mmHg, (x, y=0 mmHg, 5 L/min)
 
2. Super-athletes: max=30-40 L/min (hypereffective; achieved by combined changes discussed in #3 below)
Heart failure: max~5 L/min (less than this=death)
 
3. Sympathetic stimulation: HR (180 bpm), contractility 2X (inotropic effect), hypertrophic heart (150-175% normal size)
Term

4. Congenital defects
5. Cardiac hypoxia or anoxia (extreme hypoxia)
6. Infections: myocarditis, diptheria, botulism, tetanus
7. Abnormal wear (tamponade, etc.) 
 
Term
 
Experimental example: importance of neural control on Pa regulation (dinitrophenol; DNP)
Definition
1. Symp control + DNP: arterial dilation-->decreased TPR leads to a drop in Pa, which is compensated for by increased 4X CO (HR and contractility mainly).
 
2. No control +DNP: arterial dilation-->decreased TPR: leads to decreased Pa b/c CO only increases 1.6X w/o sympathetic innerv. (CO increases 1.6X based on increased VR; blood running from arterial to venous circulation with lowered TPR)
Term
 
Notes on transmural pressure (TMP) significance: 
 
Equation to calculate it 
Relation to CO 
Definition
1. TMP is significant in determining CO b/c the RA is VERY compliant
 
Eq: TMP=RAP - Intrapleural Pressure (IPP)
 
2. Inhalation: IPP becomes (-)
    RAP=0 mmHg (~constant)
    Exhalation: (+) ITP 
 
3.  Given equal transmural pressures, 2 different compartments will have the same volume (not dependent on values of pressure in/out, just the difference between these values!), p. 285
 
4. Starling curves represent a constant TMP along line.  Normal=-4 mmHg 
 
5. CO is directly proportional to RAP, VR, abs. value of IPP
CO is indirectly proportional to IPP
Term

2. Equation
3. Normal values
4. Notes 
Definition

2. VR = [Psf - RAP]/[Rv + (Ra/26)]
 
3. Normal values: Psf=7 mmHg, RAP=0 mmHg, RVR=varies (but Rv is 26X more important than Ra!)
 
4. VR is a flow, so it is dependent on a pressure difference (Psf-RAP).  Equilibrium nature of eq.: RAP is directly proportional to CO but indirectly proportional to VR...
Term
 
VR curve:
1. Why the plateau?
2. Transitional zone
3. X-intercept meaning
4. Slope indications and VR curve shifts**
Definition
1. Plateau caused by negative pressures collapsing major veins in the intrathoracic cavity (that feed into the RA)
2. -4-->0 mmHg (transitional zone is where the plateau begins to form: cannot suck blood into the heart with negative pressure)
3. x-intercept=where RAP=Psf (so flow, i.e. VR=0)
4. Due to changing RVR: VR=dec., RVR=inc. (slope=P/RVR), VR=inc., RVR=dec. (indirect proportionality)
Term

2. Equation
3. Important values 
4. Factors affecting Psf 
Definition

2. Psf=P=Vol./Compliance (C)
 
3. Unstressed vol=3800 mL (Normal=5000 mL @ Psf=7 mmHg) 
 
4. Psf <=> blood volume, compliance^-1, sympathetic stimulation of vessels (decreases C) 
Term
 
RVR vs. TPR:
1. Difference 
2. Equations
Definition
1. RVR is mostly (2/3) in the veins (due to their high compliance relative to arterial compliance), while TPR is mostly arterial side

2. Muscle pump: blood flows rapidly in between contractions (contraction occludes vessels temporarily)
3. Sympathetic: releases NE (α), adrenals=Epi (β) & NE
 α=vasoconstriction (GI, skin, kidney, muscle not in use)
 β=vasodilation (muscle in use & liver)

2. How does blood flow to tissues not involved in sympathetic response change during exercise? 
Definition
1. DECREASES (globally)
Why: CO increases (4X: 5 L/min-->20 L/min), while Pa increases 100 mmHg-->120 mmHg (example)
 
TPR=Pa/CO (120/20=6, 100/5=20)
 
2. DOES NOT CHANGE: flow to usd muscles, liver goes way up, but flow to other places remains relatively constant (why: since CO is increasing, without sympconstriction at these unused tissues, their perfusion would also go way up)
