Heart as a pump
•
The cardiac pump is the ground of the circulation
• The are two circulation systems that works in series: systemic
and pulmonary circulation
• The cardiac pump has the primary function of insurance an
adeguate amount of blood flow through the systemic and the
pulmonary vessel bed
• The cardiac pump works with two mechanisms : blood
aspiration and blood pushing
Heart as a pump
The cardiac pump produce a mechanical result (the
circulation of the bood) due to the contraction and relaxation
of the muscolar wall of the cardiac chambers (ventriculi and
atria)
•
• But what is the primum movens of the cardiac function?
• Upstrem the mechanical function is necessary the electric
function: the electric excitation

How is the Cardiac function?
Cardiac output and pressure
CO= Pr / R= SV x HR
Legenda
1.
2.
3.
4.
Pr = systemic pressure
R = systemic resistance
SV = stroke volume (amount of blood eject every beat)
HR = number of beats per minute
Cardiac function = CO
Determinants
• Cardiac rate
• Inotropic condition = contractility
• Venus return (RV): influenced from neuroumoral factors
(Frank-Starling law)
• Peripheric resistance
=
CARDIAC OUTPUT 4-6 l/min
CARDIAC INDEX 1.6-2.5 l/min/m²
Cardiac output = CO
CO= Pr / R= SV x HR
examples :
1. Increase of FC -> does not increase GC, decrease of the VOLUME SYSTOLE-SV
(if Rv does not increase)
2. Increase of RV -> increases GC 10-20% (increase of Pa A dx 10 mmHg)
3. Increase of FC + increase of RV -> increases GC with = SV
4. Stirring adrenergethic -> increases RV + increase of the function of the pump
(HR, contract?) = INCREASES GC
5. Important reduction of FC or alteration of V dx -> increase of Pa A dx = barrier
for the venous comeback
Organs are able to change their flow working on the oppositions; they are able to regulate the
distribution of the CARDIAC RANGE.
Cardiac function:
Frank-Starling mechanism
Cardiac function:
CO-CI & R ; Conduttance= 1/R
Vascular resistance
The vascular regulation is a local methabolic process in all organs, a part in
kidney and skin. In fact even if in a denervation condition these organs are
able to matain a adequate vascular tone modificated by methabolic
influences. Flow depend closely by the radius
R = L x h8/ x r4
10% in reduction diameter vessel = 50% in increase resistance

Function of blood circulation
TRANSPORT
• substrates and cathabolism products to and from
organs and tissues
• in a changeable measure and in proportion of her
requirements and necessities
GOAL
• to maintain an optimal composition of the interstitial
fluid necessary for the cellular function

TONACA INTIMA = ENDOTELIO
TONACA MEDIA

PLACCA ATEROSCLEROTICA
Distribution of blood flow
• It is necessary to give at any time to organs and tissues
a blood flow distribution
based on requirements
• There are two control mechanisms in a close correlation
• Central Autoregulation
• Local Autoregulation
Distribuzion of blood flow
Central Autoregulation
GOAL: TO MAINTAIN COSTANT
perfusion pressure of the organs
(independently from the flow: Fl= P/R)
Mechanism: neuro-ormonal central control on R e Fl
Local Autoregulation
GOAL: TO MAINTAIN ADEQUATE
flow for each organ for the metabolic erquirements
(independently from systemic pressure)
Mechanism: regulation of local vascular resistance due to
metabolism activity
Circulation modelling
•
• ORGANS in parallelo if we consider AORTA with different
metabolic, vascular, anathomic characteristics (f.e. heart,
abdominal argans, muscols, brain…)
• VASCULAR SYSTEM: determinate from a segments sequence
in serie similar in each organ
Arterie – arteriole – capillari – venule – vene
The Vascular System: segments
1) Aorta e great proximal arteries
• Elastic matrix tessue prevalent
HISTOLOGY
• Improve distention of vascular wall during sistole
PHISIOLOGY
• cinetic energy of stroke volume (during systole ) is storaged as elastic
energy released during diastole (partecipate at the diastolic value of BP)
• modulation of suddenly variations of BP : dynamic sistolic reserve
• pressure wave downstream is delayed
• Riduction of elastic properties
PATHOLOGY
• reduction of dynamic sistolic reserve
• increase differential blood pressure even if a costant stroke volume
• increase of afterload of left ventricle
• increase of the rate of propagation of the pressure wave
The Vascular System: segments
2) Muscolar small arteries
• Arteries with a thick muscolar medium tonaca: are the junction betweengreat
arteries and organs and tessues
– Thick medium muscolar tonaca ( high thickness/lumen ratio )
– COSTANT STRESS of the wall (PR x radius/ thickness)
– COSTANT DIAMETER with variations due to neuro-horrmonal control
– Regulatory mechanims : metabolics production and myogenic control
• Play a central role in the vascular resistance control = control and persistance of
an adequate flow to organs and tessues FL= P / R
– Is the principal location of the flow resistance (aortic pressure 100 mmHg,
small arteries pressure 30 mmHg, vein pressure 15 mmHg)
• The pressure gradient between small arteries and veins (about 15 mmHg) permits
– The capillar filtration
– The distal reabsorbtion
The Vascular System: segments
3) Capillars
• In this segments is present the most important function of circulation =
SUBSTRATES AND OXIGEN EXCHANGE BETWEEN BLOOD/TESSUES WIT H AN FOUDAMENTAL
ROLE IN OMEOSTASIS OF THE INTERSTITIAL FLUID
– The walls are very smooth , sometimes in certein organs fenestrates
– Little diameter = little transmural stress (Stress= D x P/spessore) with a better tolerance of the
transmural pressure
– There is a significant flow resistance with a fall of pressure (from 30 mmHg to 15 mmHg)
– At the arteriolar portion happen THE FILTRATION at the venular portion THE
REABSORBTION
– In any time not in all THE CAPILLARS there is perfusion: the density of the perfused capillars is
important in terms of exchange between the tessues
– The exchange happen due to:
•Pressure gradients (FLUIDS): hydrostatic pressure (proximal side) and colloido osmotic
pressure (distal side)
•Diffusion: liposoluble gas and yhdrosoluble substances
– The amount of not reabsorbed fluids returns to the systemic circulation through an alternative
circulation : THE LINFATIC SYSTEM = 4-5/L in a day-> 1/4 -1/2 TOTAL PLASMATIC ALBUMIN
The Vascular System: segments
3) Capillars
CAUSES OF INCREASE OF FILTRATION
1.
Increase of the exchanges surface (due to the increase of number of the perfused
capillars)
2. Increase of the pre-capillar pressure (more diffusion)
3.
Increase of the postcapillar pressure (less reabsorbtion))
4. Increase of the permeability per surface unit (increase of holes)
INTERCAPILLAR DISTANCE =
less distance = more opend capillars = more fast the exchange
The Vascular System: segments
4) Venule and veins
• EMODYNAMIC:
– Pressure = 15 mmHg in orizzontal position
– Prefusion pressure for the veins heart return
• HISTOLOGY:
–Thin wall
– Very strechable
–Muscolar portion very thin
•FUNCTION:
– Return of blood from tissue sto the heart
– Storage of blood able to control the return to the heart
– Influence to the capillar pressure
• LEGS: superficial and deep veins
– Muscolar wall more thick
– Unidirectional valves (distribution of the Hydrostatic pressure in orthostatisms)
Vascular resistance
• Not uniform distribution a long the segments of circulation

Vascular resistance
The vascular regulation is a local methabolic process in all organs, a part in
kidney and skin. In fact even if in a denervation condition these organs are
able to matain a adequate vascular tone modificated by methabolic
influences. Flow depend closely by the radius
R = L x h8/ x r4
10% reduction diameter vessel = 50% increase resistance

AORTIC STENOSIS: imaging
Aortic stenosis: pressure curves
Acquiring Hemodynamic Data
*Accurate method of measuring CO, especially in patients with low cardiac output.
• O2 consumption measured from metabolic hood or Douglas bag; it can
also be estimated as
3 ml/min/kg or 125 ml/min/m2.
• AVo2 difference calculated from arterial – mixed venous (pulmonary
artery) O2 content, where O2 content = saturation x 1.36 x Hg
Aortic stenosis hemodynamic evaluation
Gorlin equation
CO/(SEP)(HR)
Area in cm² = ---------------------------------------44.3(C)(sq rt of pressure gradient)
Where C = empirical constant
For MV, C = 0.85 (Derived from comparative data)
For AV, TV, and PV, C = 1.0 (Not derived, is assumed based on MV data)
Alternative to the Gorlin Formula
*A simplified formula for the calculation of stenotic cardiac valves proposed by
Hakki et al…Circulation 1981. Tested 100 patients with either AS or MS.
*Based on the observation that the product of HR, SEP or DFP, and the Gorlin
equation constant was nearly the same for all patients measured in the resting
state (pt. not tachycardic). Values of this product were close to 1.0.
*Calculations somewhat comparable………

Aortic Stenosis
All patients who displayed hard events (D or HF) had an AVA 0.75 cm2, an abnormal
exercisetest, and a significant exercise-induced increase in mean transaortic pressure
gradient

Relationship between CO and Aortic Pressure Gradient over a range of values
for AV area (Based on Gorlin formula)
Discrepancies between Gorlin and
continuity-calculated effective orifice areas
PRESSURE RECOVERY PHENOMENON
JACC 2006; 47: 1241
Since recommended cut-off values for the severity of aortic stenosis are
largely based on the clinical experience with Gorlin-calculated areas, the
use of the inherently lower continuity calculated effective orifice areas will
lead to a systematic overestimation of stenosis severity.
Myocardial ischemia
Fractional Flow Reserve – FFR
Coronary circulation:
anatomic aspects
• Coronary tree = vascular system with dicotomyc
regular ramification with a diameter progressively
smaller
• 2 distinct section in term of anatomic and
functional characteristics
- 1 Epicardic portion
- 2 Microcirculation section
Coronary Circulation: segments

Microcirculation)
Coronary circulation:
anatomic aspects
• Epicardic portion (diameter 4-5 - 0.5 mm)
- “Conduttance” vessel : not able to influence the vascular
resistance
- are visible using contrast media
• Microcirculation (diameter < 0.5 mm)
- “ Resistance” vessel site of autoregulation process
- Are able to modify vascular resistance up to 6 times
- Incompletely visible with contrast media (cause of “myocardial
blush”)

Pulsed flow (not continue) with a prevalent diastolic component
Cardiac methabolism: exclusively aerobic - O2 dependent with a very

Coronary stenosis: physiopathology
concept of coronary flow reserve
• A coronary stenosis (> 40%) determine a reduction in perfusion
pressure without a concomitant flow reduction due to
contemporary microcirculation resistance reduction
FL= P/R, if decrease P and R contemporary = FL remain stable
• Stenosis upper a limit level (80-85% diameter) run out the
dilatation possibilities of the microcirculation: in this condition
every other reduction of pressure means reduction of flow
because the incapacity of reduction of resistance = ischemia

Clinical Applications
1. Diagnostic Setting:
Is this lesion responsible for patient’s complaints?
Should this lesion be revascularized?
2. Interventional Setting:
Is a stent needed after balloon angioplasty?
Is the stent well deployed?
BDB 98/029
Clinical Applications of FFR
1. Before PTCA:
when FFR > 0.75 the prognosis is at least
as good without than with an angioplasty.
when FFR < 0.75 an angioplasty is
justified by a marked symptomatic
improvement following revascularization.
Clinical Applications of FFR
2. After balloon:
when FFR > 0.90 and angio is OK, the longterm outcome after POBA is similar than
what can be expected after additional stent
implantation.

represents the true fraction of maximum flow
which can still be maintained in spite of the
presence of a stenosis.
It is exactly that index which tells to what extent
a patient is limited by his coronary disease.

In summary
FFRmyo ...
is a lesion specific index
is independent of hemodynamic parameters
has a normal value of 1.0
takes into account collateral flow
has no need for a normal control artery
can be easily obtained: FFRmyo = Pd / Pa
