Question Answer
Examples for 1? A - Inotrophy 1 - Catecholamines, digoxin ⊕
Examples for 2? A - Inotrophy 2 - Uncompensated HF, narcotic overdose, sympathetic inhibition ⊝
Examples for 3? B - Venous return 3 - Fluid infusion, sympathetic activity ⊕
Examples for 4? B - Venous return 4 - Acute hemorrhage, spinal anesthesia ⊝
Examples for 5? C - Total peripheral resistance 5 - Vasopressors ⊕
Examples for 6? Exercise, AV shunt ⊝
What does the intersection of curves on the graph indicate? Operating point of heart (ie, venous return and CO are equal)
What is the effect shown on the Introphy graph? Changes in contractility --> altered CO for a given RA pressure (preload).
What is the effect shown on the Venous Return graph? Changes in circulating volume or venous tone ---> altered RA pressure for a given CO. Mean systemic pressure (x-intercept) changes with volume/venous tone.
What is the effect shown on the Venous Return graph? At a given mean systemic pressure (x intercept) and RA pressure, changes in TPR ---> altered CO.
What is the following an example of? HF decreased inotropy ---> fluid retention to increase preload to maintain CO Changes that occur in tandem and are compensatory
What is the following an example of? exercise increased inotropy and decreased TPR to maximize CO Changes that occur in tandem and are reinforcing
