PHYSL402 Lecture Notes - Lecture 16: Vascular Resistance, Central Venous Catheter, Thoracic Cavity
Document Summary
Factors that influence central venous p and venous return venous tone increase innervation produces in central. Lt reg of bp is through regulation of bv. Control of bp by low-p baroreceptors (volume receptors) in atria of heart. Thus, map = (hr x sv) x tpr: effects of cardiac output on mean arterial p. Note: in above formula, map is dependent on co. Elastic recoil maintains steady flow of blood to rest of circulation. Assume that peripheral resistance does not change: effect of total peripheral resistance on mean arterial p.

With increased p increased ap freq and info delivery to cv centers in brain.
