Document Summary

Cardiac output: q (cardiac output) = hr x sv, heart rate how many times the heart pumps in a minute. 2: bradycardia slow heart rate, clinically less than 60, trachycardia fast heart rate, clinically over 100, stroke volume, volume of blood pumped per heart beat, sv = edv-esv. Echocardiography: a measure of heart function, measuring camber size and stroke volume through the cardiac cycle, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, genetic disorder, most common cause of sudden death in the young, myofibrillar disarrays. Factors affecting stroke volume: contractility, increased by sympathetic stimulation and circulating catecholamine (epinephrine and norepinephrine, pump more forcefully and quicker, increase in contractility means more of edv is pumped out (increase in ef ejection fraction) Increase of sympathetic control of blood flow: vasoconstriction whole body, vasodilation (cholinergic response) in working muscle, acetylcholine, extrinsic neural control, increase in heart rate to maintain cardiac output, increase in arterial vasomotor tone. 10: increased blood moving in circulation, autoregulation.
