blood flow– Found throughout body, many in heart– Provides collateral circulation for blood to reach an
organ

Cardiac Cycle•Atrial Systole/Ventricular Diastole•blood flows passively into ventricles•remaining 30% of blood pushed into ventricles•A-V valves open/semilunar valves close• ventricles relaxed• ventricular pressure increases
![Page 29: 1 Chapter 15 Cardiovascular System. 2 Size of Heart Average Size of Heart 14 cm long 9 cm wide 250-350 grams About size of your closed fist](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e955503460f94b99674/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Cardiac Cycle
•Ventricular Systole/Atrial diastole
• A-V valves close• chordae tendinae prevent cusps of valves from bulging too far into atria• atria relaxed• blood flows into atria• ventricular pressure increases & opens semilunar valves• blood flows into pulmonary trunk & aorta

• Clinical Application• Murmur – any condition that causes unusual sounds
to heard before or after the lubb-dupp
•Noises caused by turbulent blood flow
•Mitral and Aortic Stenosis– Narrowing of either valve by scar formation or
congenital defect
• Mitral and Aortic insufficiencies– Backflow of blood because the cusp doesn’t close
properly

• Elastic conducting arteries– Conduct blood from the heart to the medium
sized arteries– Large diameter with relatively thin walls• Tunica media has more elastic fibers and less
smooth muscle

55
• Muscular Distributing Arteries– Distribute blood to the rest of the body
– More smooth muscle in tunica media

58
Capillaries• Smallest diameter blood vessels•Only one RBC at a time
• Extensions of inner lining of arterioles• Walls are endothelium only•Only 1 cell layer thick
• Semi-permeable• Found near almost every cell in the body• The higher the tissue’s activity, the more capillaries present
• Sinusoids – leaky capillaries

Regulation of Capillary Blood Flow
• Precapillary sphincters • may close a capillary• respond to needs of the cells• low oxygen and nutrients cause sphincter to relax
![Page 62: 1 Chapter 15 Cardiovascular System. 2 Size of Heart Average Size of Heart 14 cm long 9 cm wide 250-350 grams About size of your closed fist](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e955503460f94b99674/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
62
Exchange in the Capillaries
• Water and other substances leave capillaries because of net outward pressure at the capillaries’ arteriolar ends
• Water enters capillaries’ venular ends because of a net inward pressure
• Substances move in and out along the length of the capillaries according to their respective concentration gradients
![Page 63: 1 Chapter 15 Cardiovascular System. 2 Size of Heart Average Size of Heart 14 cm long 9 cm wide 250-350 grams About size of your closed fist](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e955503460f94b99674/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

Venules and Veins
Venule• thinner wall than arteriole• less smooth muscle and elastic tissue than arteriole• collects blood from capillaries & drain into the veins
Vein• thinner wall than artery• three layers to wall but middle layer is poorly developed• some have flaplike valves• carries blood under relatively low pressure• serves as blood reservoir

66
• Disorders– Varicose Veins• Valves are weak allowing gravity to force large
quantities of blood into distal parts of the veins
• Pressure stretches vein and causes it to lose elasticity
• Veins become stretched and flabby
• Deep veins are not susceptible
Venous Valves

Arterial Blood Pressure
Blood Pressure – force the blood exerts against the inner walls of the blood vessels
Arterial Blood Pressure• rises when ventricles contract• falls when ventricles relax• systolic pressure – maximum pressure• diastolic pressure – minimum pressure
![Page 69: 1 Chapter 15 Cardiovascular System. 2 Size of Heart Average Size of Heart 14 cm long 9 cm wide 250-350 grams About size of your closed fist](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e955503460f94b99674/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
69
• Blood Pressure (BP)– Pressure on arterial wall due to the left ventricle
contraction– Blood flows from high to low pressures– Average aorta pressure is 100mmHg– Average right atrium pressure is nearly 0 mmHg– Normal resting BP is 120 mmHg (systolic)
80 mmHg (diastolic)
– Measured with a sphygomanometer

• Resistance– Friction as blood travels– Related to• Viscosity
– Ratio of RBC and solutes to liquid– Anything that decreases viscosity (dehydration) increases
BP

radius of the vessel

74
• Cardiac Output– Amount of blood ejected by the left ventricle into
the aorta each minute
– Main factor of BP
• Blood Volume– Average is about 5 liters
– Decreased volume = decreased pressure
– Increased volume = increased pressure• High salt intake retain water increased blood volume
Factors That InfluenceArterial Blood Pressure

75
• Peripheral Resistance
– All of the vascular resistance offered by the cardiovascular system
– Major function of arterioles is to control resistance
• Capillary Exchange
