Term
law of conservation
Definition
PV=K is ???
Term
decrease in diastole
Definition
(increase in systole or decrease in diastole) which is going to be more deadly because pressure is low in system so it will not be able to deliver blood to the tissues
Term
intrinsic behavior
Definition
in the walls of the vessels a delay in compliance where an increase in volume will increase pressure but then pressure will gradually decrease because of what behavior?
Term
40 mmHg
Definition
what is the normal pulse pressure?
Term
systolic
Definition
an increase in stroke volume and increasing vascular elasticity leads to an increase in what pressure
Term
diastolic
Definition
when there is a decrease in total peripheral resistance HR and SV there is a decrease in what type of pressure
Term
arteriosclerosis
Definition
in this disease there is a loss of arterial compliance, increase in systolic pressure, diastolic pressure may remain the same or decrease, and the pulse pressure is going to widen
Term
patent ductus arteriosus
Definition
in this condition, systolic pressure will increase, diastolic pressure will decrease, end diastolic volume will increase, it is a left to right shunt and blood flow will go from the aorta to the pulmonary artery
Term
open ductus arteriosus
Definition
in this condition blood circulates between the lung and the left ventricle
Term
aortic regurgitation
Definition
in this condition there is a defective aortic valve, EDV increases, Sys. Pressure increases, Pulse pressure increases, Diastolic pressure decreases
Term
pulses paradoxus
Definition
the pulse decreases instead of increases during the respiratory cycle
Term
pulse deficit
Definition
premature contraction or presence of ectopic forces causes a decrease in filling and a decrease in stroke volume
Term
bigeminal
Definition
this type of pulse is due to regular premature contractions
Term
water-hammer
Definition
this pulse is seen in patients with aortic regurgitation and there is a high pulse/no pulse sequence
Term
systolic click
Definition
this occurs at the beginning of systole due to mitral prolapse
Term
increase
Definition
as blood pressure increases what will happen to the renal output?
Term
decrease
Definition
if you have a decrease in ECF what will happen to the circulatory filling pressure
Term
edema
Definition
what condition occurs when the presence on the onctic force is equal to 0?
Term
28mmHg
Definition
what is the oncotic force on the inside of the capillary?
Term
vasoconstriction
Definition
increase in total peripheral resistance
Term
volume loading hypertension
Definition
renal failure and primary aldosteronism causes what kind of hypertension
Term
primary aldosteronism
Definition
an increase in Na+ leads to an increase in absorption which leads to an increase in volume which leads to an increase in BP is known as?
Term
essential hypertension
Definition
what type of hypertension do 90% of patients present with
Term
vasodilators
Definition
what is the treatment for hypertension?
Term
3L/min/m^2
Definition
what is the normal average of cardiac output/body SA
Term
it will go to 0
Definition
what happens to the venous return when filling pressure is increased?
