Document Summary

The function of the cardiovascular system is maintaining homeostasis of interstitial fluid. Decreased resistance = increased blood flow (arterial bp of the whole body) bp = q x tpr. Bp = hr (edv - esv) x tpr. Increased heart rate = increased blood pressure = increased flow. Increased edv = increased sv = increased q = increased pressure = increased flow. Decreased esv = increased pressure and flow. Small change in radius = large in resistance. Diastolic pressure: pressure in systemic arteries while heart is relaxed. Pulse pressure = systolic bp - diastolic b. Heart is relaxed 2 time longer than its contracting. Map = diastolic bp + (pulse pressure/3) Bp has to drop in circulatory system. Blood flows from high pressure to low pressure. Capillaries have greater surface area than larger arteries. Blood flow (volume per second) through any part of circulatory system is the same. Or else blood will pile up somewhere.
