Normal heart rhythm
Sinus rhythm: • Sinus tachycardia: > 100 bpm Causes: exercise, emotional excitement, heart failure, fever, anemia.• Sinus bradycardia: < 60 bpm Causes: long term exercise, hypothyroidism.
Sinus arrhythmias: irregular firing of the SA-node (fast and slow beats)
Ectopic heart beats: the impulse that causes heart contraction originates outside the SA-node and causes extrasystoles.

1. The QRS complex may be abnormally large (ventricular hypertrophy) or abnormally small (ventricular atrophy).
2. The QRS complex does not follow the P-wave. Sometimes several P-waves followed by the QRS-complex. Causes, heart block. The impulse is not
always conducted through the AV-node.3. The Q-wave is enlarged, abnormal QRS-complex, ST-segment is
elevated above baseline and inverted T-waves are indicative of necrotic heart muscle. Therefore MI.

CARDIAC OUTPUT (CO)
Vol blood that leaves LV per min into systemic circulation - 5-6 L/min - adultstrenuous exercise - 35-50 L/min
by exercise, fever, stress, anemia, gender, and thyroid defects.
CO – determined by two variables nl. 1) Heart rate (HR) and, 2) Stroke volume (SV)
SV and HR - regulated by two mechanisms:1) Intrinsic (auto-regulation), eg. Stretch of muscle fibers, frequency of
contraction, tension and temperature.2) Extrinsic, eg. by nerves, hormones and electrolytes.

Stroke volume (SV): volume of blood leaving ventricle per heartbeat.
End-diastolic volume (EDV) – End systolic volume (ESV) = SV 120 ml –50 ml = 70 mlThe Ejection fraction is : SV/EDV = 70/120 = 0.58 of 58%
Factors that determine SV:1. Preload (intrinsic mech.)2. Afterload (intrinsicmech.)3. Contractility of the myocardium (exstrinsic mech.)

Filling pressure function of central venous pressure (CVP) = pressure in RA
During diastole CVP = 0mm Hg
During systole CVP = 8 mm Hg
CVP determined by:1. the ability of the heart to pump blood away – heart failure - CVP2. Volume of the system.3. The pressure around the heart also influences the CVP

Resistance to blood flow influenced by:• The length of the blood vessel (L)• The radius of the blood vessel (r)• The viscosity of the blood ()
Factors in Poiseuille’s law:R= 8 L r4
With: 8 a constant = blood viscosity = constant L = Length of the tube = constant = constant r = radius of the tube
Change in the radius of the tube makes the biggest difference to resistance to flow. 1. in radius = vasodilatation2. in radius = vasoconstriction
Flow (F) = volume of blood that flows past a point in a given time (L/min)F = P/R

4. Capillaries• Capillaries branch out of arterioles or metarterioles (serve as throughway/canal
between arterioles and venules).• Has largest cross-sectional area – flow velocity is very slow• Walls very permeable• Diameter: 3-8 m; thichness: 1-2 m
• 3 layers:1. Endothelial cells2. basal membrane of proteoglycans3. thin collagen and reticular fibers. NB: no smooth muscle layer
Functions: link between blood and tissue for exchange of: water, gasses, electrolytes, nutrients etc.
• Tissue that is metabolically more active has larger capillary bed.

Factors that determine BP
BP = CO X TPR1. CO = SV X HR2. TPR3. Elasticity of blood vessels4. Volume of blood5. Viscosity of blood
![Page 112: CARDIOVASCULAR PHYSIOLOGY Dr J. du Toit Room 511 Fisan building Text books: Human Physiology – An Integrated Approach. Silverthorn. Human Physiology. Rhodes](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5cad4/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Question1) Why would MAP rise as HR rises even if diastolic filling of the ventricle decreases (at an increased CO)?
NB MAP = CO X TPR
CO TPR = CO MAP
![Page 113: CARDIOVASCULAR PHYSIOLOGY Dr J. du Toit Room 511 Fisan building Text books: Human Physiology – An Integrated Approach. Silverthorn. Human Physiology. Rhodes](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5cad4/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
1. CO = SV and HR• SV and HR can only change BP if CO changes• If CO then BP decreases if TPR remains constant• If CO then BP will be maintained by increasing TPR• If CO as with exercise, then BP rises unless TPR decreases (this is the
normal situation)
2. Peripheral resistance – dependent on diameter of the arteriole (and therefore resistance in arterioles)
3. The BP will increase with a decrease in compliance of the elastic blood vessels.
Pulse pressure will rise as a result of a decrease in compliance of the blood vessels MAP

Hipertensie
•BD van 140/90 mmHg = skeidingslyn tussen normaal en hipertensief•Gewoonlik agv verlaagde radius van die arteriole •Gewoonlik is die oorsaak onbekend – essensiële hipertensie
Moontlike oorsake:•Baie wetenskaplike bewyse dat oormaat natrium “retension” kan hipertensie veroorsaak•Behandeling met ‘n lae natrium dieet of die gebruik van “diuretikums” (diuretics) verlaag BD•Vetsug risiko faktor vir hipertensie – oefening en gewig verlies kan die hoë BD laat afneem
Gevolge:Hipertrofie van hart en beroerte (stroke)
