Blood pressure graph
6 important questions on Blood pressure graph
What is cardiac output (CO) and how do you calculate it
- The amount of blood that is pumped through the circulatory system by the heart.
- Stroke volume x heart rate
What happens with the muscle vessels once someone starts exercising, and with the vessels in the rest of the vessels that are connected to non-vital organs for exercise?
- Vasodilation (widening of blood vessels)
- Vasoconstriction (narrowing of blood vessels)
BP in systemic circulation
- Diastolic pressure = lowest pressure resulting from relaxing of ventricles. Aortic pressure is low (80) during ventricular diastole.
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What is pulse pressure?
Pulse pressure = SP - DP
What is a vascular bed
What is the velocity of flow?
It is higher in a smaller tube than in a larger one, but it depends on the total cross-sectional area.
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
