The cardiovascular system provides appropriate
oxygen and energy supply, via appropriate local
circulation to the tissues.
Circulation consists
microcirculation
of
macrocirculation
and
Normal circulation requires:
a pump, blood vessels, and normal blood
volume

The preload is the wall stress of the
ventricle prior to ejection.
Clinically it is characterized by the
ventricular end-diastolic volume, and/or
ventricular end-diastolic pressure.

End-diastolic

End-diastolic
volume
Factors to be considered:
1. The end-diastolic pressure-volume relationship is curvilinear.
above a certain point monimal volum cshange is mirrored by considerable
pressure elevation. The slope of the relatiomship changes from subject to subject
2. The left vantricular diastolic function is very sensitive to ischemia, and injury.
Thus end-diastolic pressure may rise without volume change.

Thus end-diastolic pressure may rise without volume change.
3. End-diastolic pressure may be influenced by the fact, that left and right heart share
location within the pericardial space. Dilation of the right ventricle, or pericardial fluid
accumulation may also increases EDP.

Intravascular
pressures
Factors to be considered:
1. Vessels could be considered as conduits, connecting the heart
to the periphery.
2 Vessels, however are also elastic „containers”, and their capacity
to blood is determined by their distending pressure.
3 Pressure could be generated by blood flowing through the tubes.
4 Certain amount of pressure could be also generated by
„overstretching” the vessels,
5 The distensibility and the resistance characteristics of the
vessels differ tremendously at different sites of the circulation

I. With „arrested circulation”
During circulatory arrest theblood volume
distrbute according to the distensibility of
the various vascular compartments, and
will exert a steady pressure on the walls.
That pressure is the mean vascular filling

Mean systemic filling pressure
During circulatory arrest theblood volume
distrbute according to the distensibility of
the various vascular compartments, and
will exert a steady pressure on the walls.
That pressure is the mean vascular filling
pressure
Circulatory arrest
Intact circulation
During circulatory arrest the heart itself will distend as well.
(The heart ismuch more compliant, than the arterial system).
The distension of the heart however is not proportional,
(The right heart is much more complient than the left)

Questions
of the „afterload”
The afterload is the wall stress of the
ejecting ventricle.
Clinically it is characterized by the
ventricular pressure generated during
ejection.
(it
is
certainly
an
oversimplification).

The abnormal distensibility of ther
conductance vessels (i.e. increased
stiffness),
contributes
to
the
increased central arterial pressure
during ejection.

Everybody in the room
who knows 3 ways to increase
Cardiac output raise hand !!
Types of circulatory failure
- a szív csökkent pumpafunkciója - cardiogenic shock
- reduced venous return - hypovolaemic shock
- csökkent artériás tónus a véráramlás abnormális
eloszlásával - distributive shock
- outflow obstruction - obstructive shock
Let’s put the puzzle together
(start with normal parameters)
In order to put the puzzle together, I had to
change
the directions of the axes
of certain traditional diagrams.

Diastolic heart failure is suspected in cases
where clinical signs of decompensation are
present, in spite of preserved systolic
function (EF≥50%).
(The diagnosis could be further confirmed by
echocardiography).
