ANSWER
False
The right side of the heart pumps blood to the lungs through the pulmonary arteries, where gas exchange takes place. The left side of the heart is considered systemic circulation because blood is pumped to all body tissues.

THE BASICS OF CELL FIRING
• Cells begin with a negative charge: resting membrane potential
• Stimulus causes some Na+ channels to open
• Na+ diffuses in, making the cell more positive

c. Ca2+
d. Cl-

ANSWER
c. Ca2+
In the S-A node and A-V node, resting cardiac muscle cells have open Ca2+ channels. This allows Ca2+ to leak into the cells, making them more positive (the cells reach threshold this way without the need for a stimulus).

CARDIAC CYCLE—DIASTOLE

CARDIAC CYCLE—SYSTOLE

• Blood pushes against AV valves and they shut
• Blood pushes through semilunar valves into aorta and pulmonary trunk

![Page 23: P pt17 control_of_cardiovascular_function](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052700/55aa02061a28ab15188b4641/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
QUESTION
Which of the following statements is true about ventricular systole?
a. Atria contract
b. Ventricles contract
c. AV valves are open
d. Semilunar valves are closed
7/1/2014 23
![Page 24: P pt17 control_of_cardiovascular_function](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052700/55aa02061a28ab15188b4641/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ANSWER
b. Ventricles contract
During ventricular systole, the ventricles contract. Because blood is being forced from the ventricle, semilunar valves must be open and AV valves, closed. The atria is in diastole (relaxation) during ventricular systole.

Discussion:• Arrange these steps in the proper order:
– Ventricles relax – First heart sound– Systole – Semilunar valves open– Diastole – AV valves close– AV valves open – Semilunar valves close– Ventricles contract – Second heart sound

PRESSURE, RESISTANCE, FLOW
• Fluid flow through a vessel depends on:
– The pressure difference between ends of the vessel
• Pressure pushes the fluid through
• Pressure keeps the vessel from collapsing
– The vessel’s resistance to fluid flow
• Small vessels have more resistance
• More viscous fluids have greater resistance

PRESSURE, RESISTANCE, FLOW OF BLOOD
• Blood flow through a vessel depends on:
– Heart creating pressure difference between ends of the vessel
• Heart pushing the blood through
• Blood pressure keeping the vessels open
– The vessel’s resistance to fluid flow
• Constricting arterioles increasing resistance
• Increased hematocrit increasing resistance

How will each of these factors affect arteriole size and peripheral resistance?
• Lactic acid • Low PO2
• Cold • Histamine
• Endothelin • Heat

BLOOD PRESSURE
• BP = CO x PR• Blood Pressure = Cardiac Output × Peripheral
Resistance
• CO = SV X HR
• In healthy adult – Highest pressure(systolic)- < 120 mmHg
– Lowest pressure (diastolic) < 80 mmHg
• Difference between systolic and diastolic pressure = pulse pressure

REGULATION OF BP
Short term regulation of BP relies on neural and hormonal mechanisms
A) Neural centers are located in the reticular formation of lower pons and medulla of the brain
• Area also called cardiovascular center • ANS control of BP is mediated by intrinsic
circulatory reflexes, extrinsic reflexes, and higher neural control centers
• Intrinsic mechanism involves Baroreceptors and chemoreceptors

![Page 31: P pt17 control_of_cardiovascular_function](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052700/55aa02061a28ab15188b4641/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
REGULATION OF BP CON’T
• Baroreceptors– Pressure sensitive receptors
– Located in the walls of blood vessels and heart
– Carotid & aortic baroreceptors are located in strategically
– Send impulse to the cardiovascular centers
• Arterial chemoreceptors– Sensitive to changes in oxygen, Carbondioxide, and
Hydrogen ion content of blood
– Located in carotid and aortic bodies
– Can also induce widespread vasoconstriction 7/1/2014 31

HORMONAL MECHANISMS
• Involves: renin- angiotensin- aldosterone mechanism, Vasopressin, epinephrine
• Renin– An enzyme found in the juxtaglomerula cells of the kidneys
– Released in blood where it converts angiotensinogen(plasma protein) to angiotensin I
– Angiotensin I is converted to angiotensin II in the lungs by Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) present in the endothelium of the lung vessels
– Angiotensin II :• Is a strong vasoconstrictor (arterioles and Veins)
• Stimulates aldosterone secretion from adrenal (cortex) gland bringing about Na/water retention by kidneys

VASOPRESSIN
• Released from the posterior pituitary gland in response to decreased blood volume and BP, increased osmolality of body fluids
• Has vasoconstrictor effect on blood vessels especially those of the planchnic circulation that supplies the abdominal viscera

HYPERSTENSION
• Classified into Primary (essential) and secondary hypertension
• Essential is the most common accounting for 90-95% of HT cases
7/1/2014 34
BP classification Systolic BP(mmHg) Diastolic BP (mmHg)
Normal < 120 And < 80
Pre-hypertension 120 – 139 And 80 – 89
Stage 1 Hypertension 140 – 149 And 90 - 99
Stage 2 Hypertension ≥ 160 ≥ 100

DIAGNOSIS
• Repeated BP measurement
• BP measurement should be taken when the person is relaxed and has rested for at least 5 minutes and had not smoked or taken caffeinwithin 30 minutes
• Pharmacological treatment based on:
– severity of disease

SECONDARY HYPERTENSION
• Most common causes are: Kidney disease, adrenocortical disorder, phenochromocytoma, coarctation of the aorta, drugs such as cocaine
• HT arising from kidney disease is usually a result of: – Acute glomerulonephrites– Acute renal failure– End stage renal disease
• 80% of patients with Chronic renal failure have HT • Most acute kidney disorders result in decreased urine
formation, retension of water & Na and HT • Reduced renal blood flow causes the affected kidney
to release excess amounts of renin

QUESTION
Tell whether the following statements is true or false:
In patients with hypertension (high blood pressure), peripheral resistance is increased.

![Page 42: P pt17 control_of_cardiovascular_function](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052700/55aa02061a28ab15188b4641/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
ANSWER
True
In hypertension, blood vessels are constricted/narrowed. Smaller vessels increase resistance (it’s harder to push the same amount of fluid/blood through a tube that has become smaller).
