108 Terms

1

Diastolic pressure + 1/3 of the pulse pressure. This is the average effective pressure forcing blood through the circulatory system. Normal value is 96-100mm Hg.

Mean Blood Pressure

New cards
2

the amount of blood pumped out of the left ventricle per unit of time

cardiac output (CO)

New cards
3

equation of mean BP (nm Hg)

cardiac output x total peripheral resistance

New cards
4

Any factor that increases either the cardiac output or the total peripheral resistance causes

an almost immediate reflex rise in blood pressure.

New cards
5

systolic B.P. indicates

indicates The force of contraction of the heart

New cards
6

diastolic pressure reflects

The condition of the systemic blood vessels.

New cards
7

In either of these indirect methods, pressure is applied to the artery using an instrument called

the sphygmomanometer

New cards
8

Human blood pressure is most commonly measured in the

brachial artery of the upper arm.

New cards
9

In the auscultatory method the pressure cuff is used as in the palpatory method, and a stethoscope is used to listen to the changes in sounds from the

brachial artery.

New cards
10

how do you calculate total peripheral resistance

TPR= mean blood pressure/ cardiac output

New cards
11

if the pulse pressure should be proportional to the stroke volume. Thus, by substitution, we obtain:

TPRest= (systolic pressure+(2x diastolic pressure))/3/ pulse pressure x heart rate

<p>TPRest= (systolic pressure+(2x diastolic pressure))/3/ pulse pressure x heart rate</p>

: the difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures. Normal value is 40mm Hg.

Pulse Pressure

New cards
23

New cards
24

a cannula is inserted into the artery, head-on pressure of the blood is measured with a transducer or mercury manometer.

Direct way to measure BP

New cards
25

pressure is applied externally to an artery and the pressure is determined by listening to arterial sounds (using a stethoscope) below the point where the pressure is applied

indirect method to measure BB

New cards
26

what is the method of indirectly measuring BP called

auscultatory method or the palpatory method

New cards
27

one simply palpates or feels the pulse as pressure is applied to the artery

palpatory method

New cards
28

It consists of an inflatable rubber bag (cuff), a rubber bulb for introducing air into the cuff, and a mercury or anaeroid manometer for measuring the pressure in the cuff.

the sphygmomanometer

New cards
29

the pressure when the radial pulse first reappears--this is. , the highest pressure in the ----- artery

systolic blood pressure

New cards
30

four phases of sound changes are called the

Korotkoff sounds

New cards
31

Appearance of a fairly sharp thudding sound which increases in intensity during the next 10mm Hg of pressure drop. The pressure when the sound first appears is the systolic pressure.

Phase 1

New cards
32

The sounds become a softer murmur during the next 10-15 mm Hg drop in pressure.

Phase 2

New cards
33

The sounds become louder again and have a sharper thudding quality during the next 10-15 mm Hg of pressure drop

Phase 3

New cards
34

The sounds suddenly become muffled and reduced in intensity. The pressure at this point is termed the diastolic pressure. This muffled sound continues for another5 mm Hg pressure drop, after which all sound disappears. The point where the sound ceases completely is called the end diastolic pressure. It is sometimes recorded along with the systolic and diastolic pressures in this manner: 120/80/75.

Phase 4-

New cards
35

phase four the sound becomes muffled and reduced this is called the

diastolic pressure

New cards
36

the point where the sound ceases completely is called the

means "to listen to" and study the various sounds arising from the heart during its pumping activity.

Auscultation

New cards
45

The heart sounds may be heard by placing your ear on the chest or by using a

1st Heart Sound

New cards
48

occurs during the end of systole and is produced by the closure of the S-L valves, the opening of the A-V valves, and the resulting vibrations in the arteries and ventricles. Due to the higher blood pressures in the arteries the sound produced is higher pitched. It is commonly referred to as the "dub" sound.
