Introduction Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the United States An estimated 92.1 million American adults live with one or more cardiovascular diseases (C V D’s) Direct and indirect costs of C V D are estimated to be 316 billion dollars Age-adjusted C V D death rate has dropped over the past 40 years A result of developments in treatment and prevention of these diseases Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Anatomy and Physiology of the Cardiovascular System What is the role of the cardiovascular system? Regulates blood flow to tissues Delivers oxygenated blood and nutrients Retrieves waste products Thermoregulation Hormone transport Maintenance of fluid volume Regulation of p H Gas exchange Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

The Heart Three layers of the heart wall Epicardium—Outer Endocardium—Inner Myocardium—Middle Responsible for muscle contraction Four chambers Upper two chambers—Left and right atria Lower two chambers—Left and right ventricles Electrical activity Originates at the sinoatrial (S A) node Measured with electrocardiogram (E C G) Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Cardiac Cycle Repeating contraction/relaxation of the heart Includes two phases Systole (contraction) Diastole (relaxation) Force exerted on the walls of blood vessels during contraction Systolic blood pressure Force exerted during relaxation Diastolic blood pressure Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Cardiac Function Stroke volume: Volume of blood ejected with each contraction of L V Regulated by end diastolic volume (E D V), mean aortic blood pressure (M A P), and strength of ventricular contraction Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Regulation of Blood Pressure Mean arterial pressure (M A P) determined by cardiac output and total peripheral resistance Arterial blood pressure (A B P) is regulated by: Sympathetic nervous system Renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (R A A S) Renal function Hormones involved Epinephrine, vasopressin, and angiotensin 2 Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Table 13.3: Lifestyle Modifications for Managing Hypertension Modification Recommendation Approximate S B P Reduction (Range) Reduce weight Maintain normal body weight (body mass 5–20 m m H g/10 k index 18.5–24.9 k g/m2) g Adopt D A S H, Consume a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and 8–14 m m H g eating plan low-fat dairy products with a reduced content of saturated and total fat Lower sodium a) Consume no more than 2400 m g of 2–8 m m H g intake sodium/day b) Further reduction of sodium intake to 1500 m g/day is desirable since it is associated with even greater reduction in B P c) Reduce intake by at least 1000 m g/day since that will lower B P, even if the desired daily sodium intake is not achieved Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Table 13.3: Lifestyle Modifications for Managing Hypertension Continued 1 Modification Recommendation Approximate S B P Reduction (Range) Physical Engage in regular physical activity 150–300 4–9 m m H g activity minutes per week. Moderate to vigorous activity may lower B P for individuals with prehypertension and hypertension to a normal range for a major portion of the day. All activity appears to have a positive relationship with health even short bouts of physical activity of less than 10 minutes. It appears that there is also an inverse relationship for leisure time activity and blood pressure as well as more vigorous physical activity Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Atherosclerosis Thickening of the blood vessel walls caused by presence of plaque and a loss of vascular elasticity Results in restriction of blood flow Associated with: Myocardial infarction (M I) Cerebrovascular accident (C V A; stroke) Peripheral vascular disease (P V D) Coronary heart disease (C H D) Congestive heart failure (C H F) when severe C H D or M I occurs Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Atherosclerosis: Pathophysiology Complex process Involves endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, platelets, and leukocytes Begins as a response to endothelial lining injury that results in an inflammatory process Results in restriction of arterial blood flow Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.

Atherosclerosis: Risk Factors Additive effect in their predictive power Family history Age and sex More prevalent in people over the age of 65 Males tend to develop atherosclerosis at a faster rate Obesity Positively associated with dyslipidemia, hypertension, physical inactivity, and diabetes Dyslipidemia Lipids are transported via lipoproteins composed of a lipid interior and protein shell Marcia Nelms, Nutrition Therapy and Pathophysiology, 4th Edition. © 2020 Cengage.
