Term
What are the two systems of the cardiovascular system?
Definition
Pulomary & Systemic
Term
What do the pulmonary and systemic system depend on for control
Definition

Volume and Pressure

These two systems works opposite of each toehr and pressure is highest in LEFT VENT

Term
For the systems to be ing control they are dependant on 2 things
Definition
Flow and Volume
Term
How does pressure and Resistance work?
Definition
Heart creates Pressure & Vessels create reistance the bigger the vessel the less restance and vice versa
Term
What are the two types of blood flow?
Definition

Laminar flow- Serum fluid on outside of lumin that is next to a vessel and all other elements are inside=smooth blood flow

 

Turbulant blood flow- Eleements are bouncing on walls, elements fall out of soulution and into walls, we can sometimes hear this (murmur) Brewy

Term
What are the three layers of the heart?
Definition

Pericardium- fiberous sac

Myocardium- heart muscle

Endocardium- membrane lines heart

Term
What are sarcomers and what do they turn into?
Definition
Sarcomers contract heart, and are interwoven in myocardium...once interwoven they are called SYNCTIUM- Fibers wrk together = smooth contraction- start at top go to bottom.
Term
What do intercalted disk do?
Definition
They connect sarcomers(the fibers) to provide easy contraction for action potential making sure their is no delay
Term
Why do mitrochchardial cells have large mitochondiras but small ER?
Definition

Large Mitochondria d/t they wrk hard and use up energy

Small er d/t they are not making anything

Term
What are Cardiac myocytes/
Definition
They conduct AP cell to cell via the conjunction gap. The Inter Disk allows AP to move smootherly from one fiber to next
Term
What is the purpose of the sarcoplasmic reticulum?
Definition
It stores calcium inside the myocyte
Term
Hows does the process of muscle contraction work?
Definition
  • Tiny bit of extracelluar calcium moves into cell as AP begins
  • This causes SR to open up and allow larger amounts of CA into intercellular and it hooks up with troponin now becoming thick filament
  • Actin and myocin hook up causing muslce to contract
  • ATP comes on borred to make power stroke causing mycin to let go
  • The filament turns away and muscle moves
Term
What does globular actin proteins do?
Definition
Forms helix around nebulin
Term
What do tropin and tropmcin do?
Definition
Come together for stability
Term
The cardiac cycle starts with what?
Definition
Systole=blood pumps out of heart
Term
Explain systole?
Definition
  • isovolumetric contraction- vessels loaded streatches, greater stretch = greater contraction.
  • Ventricels are filled with blood and contract
  • Push through tricuspid & mitral valve(AV valves)ist heart sound
  • Push through semilunar valves into aorta and pulm artery of heart
  • blood flows into lungs and aorta
Term
What is dystole?
Definition
Relaxed heart... heart fills
Term
What happens during dystole?
Definition
  • ventricals relax pressure on pulm and aortic valve stop they close= 2nd heart sound
  • blood enters artia flows thru AV valves into ventricals
  • Atria contracts forcing blood into ventricals
Term
Why is dystole so important for out body?
Definition
During systole when heart is relaxed the coronary arteries are perfused
Term
Explain the three factors of C/O
Definition
  • Preload- volume work of heart
  • Afterload- Pressure wrk of heart
  • Contractility
  • HR- determs time in diastole and filling time of ventricle and perfusion of arteries
  • Rythem- orderly contraction of myocardium
Term
How do we control our heart by way of the NS?
Definition

Parasympathetic

Sympathetic

Term
Explain Parasympathetic NS?
Definition

Medulla

Vegus

Slow hrt

ACH

Term

Explain Sympathetic

 

Definition

Thoracic spinal

Sa, AV myocardium

Increase contractions

Norepi

Term
What is starlings Law?
Definition
Force of contraction determined by amount of stretch
Term
What happens is their is to much volume and to much stretch during preload
Definition
THis is bad actin and myocin can't hook up= saggy stretched out heart...= never have good preload
Term
What is the mechanical difference b/t veins and arteries
Definition
  • Ateries-thick muscle layer easy to control- Left Vent is the pump
  • Veins depend on valves, no pump, skeletal muscle provide for blood  flow
Term
What is short term localized control of problem with a vessel?
Definition
  • autoregulation- needed for 02 and waste removal, vessel dialates to create more blood flow to the area
  • Reactive hyperemia- Increase blood flow after lose of blood flow... example fall asleep on ur arm
Term
What is enothelial control of monitoring vessel need/
Definition
create Nitric oxide- causes constant smooth muscle relaxation= make vessel bigger and at same time vasoconstric making vessel smaller
Term
What is so great about Nitric oxide?
Definition
Secreted into leumen protects agains clotting and vasoconstriction d/t it constantly tires to relax muscle to control vessel
Term
What is long term control way to control vessels in need?
Definition
  • Angio genesis/ collateral cirrculation--- created for over the wall hall
  • Microcirculation-- Capillary structure-- Interstitum- alot of fluid protien collogen & fiber way to get stuff to cells that are not directly agains a cappilary.

 

Term
What is artrosclerosis?
Definition
hardening of the gruel formation of fibro lesions in the intimal layers of arteries= hardening of arteries
Term
Why are lipoprotiens important?
Definition
They carry Cholesterol and Triglyserides witch are essential for all body functions
Term
Explain HDL vs LDL?
Definition
  • The more protien the higher densisty= HDL
  • The more lipid the lower densisty= LDL

 

Term

What is the function of HDL?

 

Definition
  • Carry CHO from peripheral circluation back to liver
Term
What does our body do to protect it self if we have high HDL?
Definition
  • High HDL can reabsorb cholesterol out of plaque and reverse artherosclerosis
  • HDL returns CHO to liver and excretes it in bile rather then using it to form more LDL
Term
LDL is bad but we do need it why?
Definition
IT is main Carrier of Cholesterols , and we need it in everything, example membrane/hormone synthesis
Term
What is receptor dependant pathway?
Definition
Gets rid of 30% of CHO we don't need is has to go by cells that have receptors
Term
What do Heptocytes do?
Definition
remove 75% LDL from circulation in liver
Term
What is the scavenger pathway/
Definition
Monocytes and macrophages ingest the rest... LDL gei it out of circulation.... you will now see excess CHO in you tissues
Term
What are the two ways to get Hyper lipidemia?
Definition
  • High diet intac
  • Genetic- autosomal dominite trate
Term
What three things cause (GAD) Hylerlipidemia?
Definition
  • defect in lipoprotiens carrier- can't carry them
  • Lack CHO receptor in liver- can't hook up in liver
  • Defective CHO metabolism- Can't use them
Term
So we got fatty stretch how do we gets these?? Process?
Definition
  1. Endothial cell injury- d/t turbulant BF
  2. Migration of inflmmatry mediators- macrophages move in and engulf LDL
  3. Lipid accumulates and smooth muscle cell proliferate- macrophages moved in and enguled as much lipd as they can and turn into  foam cells and now they can't move but keep forming inflam mediators
  4. Platelets form a plaque structure over area- collogen trys to heal cap=more turbulant blood flow- vessel eventually rupture- will move down stream and clog a vessel and anything below this popint will no longer have blood flow

 

Term
What 5 things make a Plaque more vulnerable and easy to rupture?
Definition

Large lipid core

Thin Fibrous Cap- easy to knock off

Fissured cap- bruise

Inflammation CAP

Superficial endotheial erosion- platelet aggregation

 

Term

You have a women who c/o pain in LLE

why are these things going on?

 

  • Foot cool and Pale
  • Reports Often Red/ warm when sitting
  • Pain with walking
  • Skin on LLE shinner then RLE
Definition
  • No BF weak pedal pulse
  • BF decreased
  • Prostoglandins
  • Lose fat layer under skin can't maintain tissue
Term
What is an annurysm?
Definition
Blood gets inside lumen causes rupture and hemmorage
Term
What is problems assocciated with an Aneurysm ane treatment
Definition
  • Risk of clot formation
  • treatment- stent graft
Term
What are varicouse veins?
Definition
Veins that wear out and have incomplete valves and now can harber clots
Term
What causes Varicose veins
Definition

Valves become incomplete

loose of muscle tone= worn out

Term
What are two s/s you might see if someone have varicose veins?
Definition

Stasis- Dermatitis- brown looking color to skin d/t rbc break down hemoglobin in tissue

Ulcerations- d/t no blood flow

Term
What is a venous Thrombus
Definition

Thrombophelbitis- clot that gets loose and settles in a vessel= DVT

Causes stasis blood flow, Hyper-reactivity coagulation

Term
Venous throbus precusor for what?
Definition
Venous insufficiency and PE
Term
When We have venous stasis we are prown to what
Definition

Thrombophebitis &

PE

Term

What does BP do?

Systolic?

Diastolic?

Mean Arterial?

Pulse Pressure?

Definition
  • Reflects rhythmic changes as blood moves through the heart
  • Left vent contracts
  • Left vent relaxation
  • 60 average all pressure together good indicator of good tissue perfusion
  • S-D-40 represents general compliance of major vessels if systolic is high indicates artheroscleosis
Term
What are the two things that regulate B/P?
Definition

Neural control- lower pns and medulla cadiovascular center rapid-shorterm regulation

Pheripheral control- Baroreceptors- in carotid and aortic arch respond to pressure changes in SNS heart rate and vasoconstriction

Term
Explain Renin Angiotension Aldosterone system
Definition

Decreased BP

renin releases angiotensionogen

angiotensis 1 ace in lungs weak

angiootension 2- vasocontrict

aldosterone releases= save sodium excrete K

increases blood volume

angio 2 = increase after load

Term
What does ADH do?
Definition

Released from Post Pituitary when high osmolarity

stops excretion of NA and water increased blood volume= increase bp

 

Term
What does ANP do?
Definition

Released from over stretched atria

increases NA+ water excretion vasodilation

decreases Preload and afterload= decrease BP

Term

Classification of BP

 

Normal

Pre

Stage1

Stage 2

Definition

 

120-80

Sp 120-139 or DP 80-89

SP >160 or DP>100

Term
If you haave isolated systolic hypertenstion what are you at risk for?
Definition
Kidney and Hrt Disease Stroke
Term
What do you need to remeber if you have orthostatic hypertenstion?
Definition
BP med will prevent us from being able to handle this
Term

How does this effect ur BP?

 

Vasodilation

inhibit angiotension enzyme
