What does a vector show?
If there is a negative surface charge, what does that mean?
If there is a positive surface charge what does that mean?

Sympathetic and Parasympathetic
• Sympathetic – speeds heart rate by  Ca++ & Na+
channel influx and  K+ permeability/efflux
• Parasympathetic – slows rate by  K+ efflux & 
Ca++ influx

Controls of Rate
• Your HR at any moment is the
balance between symp and
parasym discharge rates.
(“tone”/ reserve)
• Tonic discharge
• How to speed up? Two ways
(faucet analogy)
• How to slow down? Two ways
• Range: about 50 – near 200
• Typical resting HR: near 70 -SA would normally beat at 80
bpm- but vagal tone slows it
down. Parasympathetic slowsdown (20bpm or even stop)• Sympathetic speeds-speed up
(230bpm)

Drugs Affecting CO
• Atropine- parasympathetic
blocking (blocks muscarinic
AchR) agent, (+,+)
• Pilocarpine- drug that causes
cholinergic neurons to release
ACH. Since Ach decreases heart
rate, it causes (-, ) effect on
heart.
• Propranalol- Reversible,
competitive blocker of Beta1
receptor. So blocks
sympathetics effect of heart (-,-)
Decrease heart rate and force of
contraction, and lowers blood
pressure.
Drugs Affecting CO (2)
• Digoxin (shorter ½ life) or
Digitoxin- come from group of
drugs derived from digitalis.
Digitalis derived from foxglove
plant. It has a (-,+) effect, neg
chronotropic and positive
inotropic effect; slows heart rate
but increases force of contraction.
Is only drug with this effect on
heart.
– increases intracellular concentration
of Ca.
– increase force of contraction by
inhibiting Na+/K+ pump. So cells
start to accumulate Na.
– Disadvantage of using digitalis is that
it’s extremely toxic. The optimal dose
is very close to lethal dose- stops
heart
Cardiac Cycle (cont’d)
4th
Heart sounds are from turbulent blood!
Figure 9-5; Guyton & Hall
Important things to
consider
• Cardiac muscle cells have a
long absolute refractory
period
• Twitches can not summate
• Tetany not possible (this is
good!)
• If average heart beats 72bpm;
what does the heart do for the
rest of the time?
• Answer : It “rests” and fills

Frank-Starling Mechanism
• Within physiological limits the heart pumps all the
blood that comes to it without excessive
damming in the veins.
• Length-tension relationship of cardiocytes.
• Extra stretch on cardiac myocytes makes actin
and myosin filaments interdigitate to a more
optimal degree for force generation.
Factors that Affect Stroke volume
• EDV- dependent on filling time
(diastole) and venous return
– Skeletal pumping
– Respiratory pumping
• ESV– Preload- degree of stretching (EDV)
• Frank-Starling Principle: more in,
more out
– Contractility of the ventricle
• Availability of calcium; positive and
negative inotropy
– Afterload- amount of tension ventricle
must exert to eject; affected by
peripheral vasculature; if greater ESV
then there was less stroke volume
If a patient has hypertension (MAP
greater than 110mmHg)

What happens to his/her SV?
What happens to ESV?
What is happening in the arterioles?
What would the ventricles have to do?
What could happen to the patient’s MEA?
Considering the F/S mechanism

•
•
What happens to ejection fraction?
What happens to SV?
What happens to EDV?
What do the ventricles do?
What would happen to SV if the F/S
mechanism occurs plus increased
sympathetic stimulation?
• When might the above occur?

Baroreceptor activity
• If there is an increase in pressure
– What will the rate of baroreceptor “firing” be
– What will happen to the vasomotor center?
– What will happen to the cardioacceleratory
center?
– What will happen to the cardio-inhibitory
center?
• If there is a decrease in pressure....
– Answer same above questions.
Other ways to ultimately change blood flow is to change Pressure and Resistance
Arterial Pressure = Cardiac Output x Total Peripheral Resistance
According to Poiseuille’s law-Most important regulator! R4
Long Term BP control
Factors of
Resistance
Poiseuille’s Law =
• Blood viscosity
• Total vessel length
• Vessel diameter

Autoregulation  the automatic adjustment of blood flow to
each tissue in proportion to the tissue’s requirements at any
instant even over a wide range of arterial pressures
Example:
Working
Muscle
Tissue
Tissue temp. rises
Tissue CO2 levels rise
Tissue O2 levels fall
Arterioles
serving tissue
vasodilate
Lactic acid levels rise
active hyperemia:
when tissues
become active,
blood flow increases.
Aka: intrinsic
metabolic vasodilation

Autoregulation of Blood Flow
• Vasodilator agents
Bradykinin
Histamine
Nitric oxide

Potassium/hydrogen ions
Lactic acid
Carbon dioxide
Adenosine/ ADP
• Vasoconstrictors
Norepinephrine and
epinephrine

Fetal Circulation
• Foramen ovale- right
to left shunt. Most of
the blood goes
through here.
• Ductus arteriosusright to left shunt.

Birth
• Prostaglandin levels drop
• Baby breathes- lowers
pressure in pulmonary circuit
• Umbilical cord is clamped and
cut and increases systemic
pressure
• Foramen ovale closes and
becomes fossa ovalis
• Ductus arteriosus closes and
becomes ligamentum
arteriosum (oxygen content is
signal for vessel to close)
PDA- patent ductus arteriosus
• Left to right shunt
• Blood flows back to
lungs repeatedly- why?
• Net CO decreases so
blood vol. increase and
CO goes back toward
normal
• Left and right ventricular
hypertrophy
• Characteristic cyanosis

Determinants of Net Fluid Movement across
Capillaries-Starling forces=(Pc + Pif)out - (Pif +
Pp)in
Figure 16-5; Guyton and Hall
• Capillary hydrostatic pressure (Pc)-tends to force fluid
outward through the capillary membrane.
(30 mmHg arterial; 10mmHg venous- average 17.3mmHg)
• Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (Pif)- opposes filtration
when value is positive (but it’s not due to lymphatic
drainage! – 3mmHg).
Determinants of Net Fluid Movement across
Capillaries-Starling forces=(Pc + Pif)out - (Pif +
Pp)in
Figure 16-5; Guyton and Hall
• Plasma colloid osmotic pressure ( c)- opposes filtration
causing osmosis of water inward through the membrane
– Colloid osmotic pressure of the blood plasma. (28mmHg)
– 75% from albumin; 25% from globulins
• Interstitial fluid colloid pressure ( if) promotes filtration by
causing osmosis of fluid outward through the membrane
– Colloid osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid. (8mmHg)
– 3gm%

Net filtration pressure of .3 mmHg which causes a net filtration rate of
2ml/min for entire body (2-4 liters/day!)
If capillary BP is greater than capillary
OP, there will be net movement of fluid
out of the capillary.
