Study Notes
The cardiovascular system is a critical organ system that provides blood supply throughout the body, adapts to maintain homeostasis, and constantly adapts to maintain oxygen perfusion of tissues[1-2] The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries, which work together intricately to provide adequate blood flow to all parts of the body The regulation of the cardiovascular system occurs via a myriad of stimuli, including changing blood volume, hormones, electrolytes, osmolarity, medications, adrenal glands, kidneys, and much more The parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems also play a key role in the regulation of the cardiovascular system
The cardiovascular system can be divided into two systems: the lungs and the body The right side of the heart is responsible for taking unoxygenated blood from the body via the right side of the heart, and the oxygenated blood is carried to the lungs via the lungs The heart adapts via multiple variables such as heart rate, stroke volume, preload, afterload, diastole, and systole
The cardiovascular system is intertwined with other organ systems, and understanding cardiac physiology is an important medical knowledge The heart will adapt via multiple variables such as heart rate, stroke volume, preload, afterload, diastole, and systole The pathophysiology of this mechanism will be discussed in later sections.
The cardiovascular system is constantly adapts to maintain homeostasis in the body, specifically to maintain oxygen perfusion of tissues The heart will adapt via multiple variables such as heart rate, stroke volume, preload, afterload, diastole, and systole The pathophysiology of this mechanism will be discussed in later sections.
