Penkrot Part 2 Physiology of Circulation 19.6 Flow, Pressure, and Resistance Definition of Terms  Blood flow: volume of blood flowing through vessel, organ, or entire circulation in given period Measured in ml/min, it is equivalent to cardiac output (CO) for entire vascular system Overall is relatively constant when at rest, but at any given moment, varies at individual organ level, based on needs © 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Muscular pump: contraction of skeletal muscles helps squeeze blood back toward heart; valves prevent backflow 2.

Penkrot Homeostatic Imbalances in Blood Pressure  Hypertension Sustained elevated arterial pressure of 140/90 mm Hg or higher Prehypertension if values elevated but not yet in hypertension range ― May be transient adaptations during fever, physical exertion, and emotional upset ― Often persistent in obese people Prolonged hypertension is major cause of heart failure, vascular disease, renal failure, and stroke ― Heart must work harder; myocardium enlarges, weakens, and becomes flabby ― Also accelerates atherosclerosis © 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Penkrot Focus Figure 19.1-1 Bulk fluid flow across capillary walls causes continuous mixing of fluid between the plasma and the interstitial fluid compartments, and maintains the interstitial environment. The big picture Arteriole Each day, 20 L of fluid filters from capillaries at their arteriolar end and flows through the interstitial space. Most (17 L) is reabsorbed at the venous end. Fluid moves through the interstitial space. For all capillary beds, 20 L of fluid is filtered out per day—almost 7 times the total plasma volume! 17 L of fluid per day is reabsorbed into the capillaries at the venous end. About 3 L per day of fluid (and any leaked proteins) are removed by the lymphatic Venule system (see Chapter 20). Lymphatic capillary © 2016 Pearson Education, Inc. Bio 202 A&P ASU DPC T. Penkrot Focus Figure 19.1-3 Bulk fluid flow across capillary walls causes continuous mixing of fluid between the plasma and the interstitial fluid compartments, and maintains the interstitial environment. How do the pressures drive fluid flow across a capillary? Net filtration occurs at the arteriolar end of a capillary. Capillary lumen Boundary Interstitial fluid (capillary wall) Hydrostatic pressure in capillary (HPc) “pushes” fluid out of capillary. HPc  35 mm Hg Osmotic pressure in capillary OPc  26 mm Hg (OPc) “pulls” fluid into capillary. Let’s use what we know about pressures to determine the net filtration pressure (NFP) at any point. (NFP is the pressure Hydrostatic pressure driving fluid out of the capillary.) To do HPif  0 mm Hg (HPif) in interstitial fluid this we calculate the outward pressures “pushes” fluid into (HPc and OPif) minus the inward capillary. pressures (HPif and OPc). So, OPif  1 mm Hg Osmotic pressure (OPif) NFP  (HPc  OPif)  (HPif  OPc) in interstitial fluid “pulls” fluid out of capillary.  (35  1)  (0  26)  10 mm Hg (net outward pressure) As a result, fluid moves from the NFP  10 mm Hg capillary into the interstitial space. © 2016 Pearson Education, Inc. Bio 202 A&P ASU DPC T. Penkrot Focus Figure 19.1-4 Bulk fluid flow across capillary walls causes continuous mixing of fluid between the plasma and the interstitial fluid compartments, and maintains the interstitial environment. Net reabsorption occurs at the venous end of a capillary. Capillary lumen Boundary Interstitial fluid (capillary wall) Hydrostatic pressure in capillary “pushes” fluid out of capillary. HPc  17 mm Hg The pressure has dropped because of resistance encountered along the capillaries. Osmotic pressure in capillary OPc  26 mm Hg “pulls” fluid into capillary. Again, we calculate the NFP: HPif  0 mm Hg Hydrostatic pressure in interstitial fluid “pushes” fluid into capillary. NFP  (HPc  OPif)  (HPif  OPc)  (17  1)  (0  26)  8 mm Hg (net inward pressure) OPif  1 mm Hg Osmotic pressure in interstitial fluid “pulls” fluid out of capillary. Notice that the NFP at the venous end is a negative number. This means that reabsorption, not filtration, is occurring and so fluid moves from the NFP 8 mm Hg interstitial space into the capillary. © 2016 Pearson Education, Inc. Bio 202 A&P ASU DPC T.
