PHYL2001 Study Guide - Final Guide: Hepatic Veins, Pulse Pressure, Diastole
Document Summary
Lecture outcomes: very important - will be examined. List variables a ecting co (equation: co = hr x sv) Describe systemic and pulmonary circulations (know the di erence between them) Know frank-starling law of the heart (be able to sketch the cardiac function curve) De ne systolic, diastolic, mean and pulse pressure (of systemic arterial system) Know typical values for those mentioned above. Calculate mean and pulse pressure (from systolic and diastolic pressure) O2, glucose, other nutrients = delivery of them to active tissues. Co2, lactate, other waste = removal of them from active tissues. Transport of hormones, antibodies to action sites. Arteries accept blood from ventricles of heart. Small micro vessels exchange across capillaries (microciruclation) -> too small to see. Venules = small veins (collects blood from microcirculation -> brought to heart) Veins bring blood to atria of heart (bring blood towards heart) Erythrocyte will go through one set of pulmonary circuit, then one set of systemic circuit.
