Question 2

Question

Image:

08 2 Extra 1 (binary/octet-stream)

Answer

Normal
Sympathetically stimulated (eg exercise)
Following heart attack

Question 3

Question

If Cardiac Output (CO) falls 50%, BP will also fall 50% (because BP = CO * TPR). >> Reduced baroreceptor firing >> increased sympathetic activity. This results in which of the following: (after a while, this is useless, but of benefit immediately)

Answer

Increased HR
Decreased HR
Increased contractility
Decreased contractility
Selective arteriolar vasoconstriction
Selective arteriolar vasodilation
Venoconstriction
Venodilation

Question 4

Question

ANF is a peptide hormone stored in atrial cells of the heart. It inhibits Na+ reabsorption in Kidney and promotes Na+ and H2O loss. This is a way that the RAAS thing works. ANF = ??

Answer

Atrial Naturetic Factor
Arterial Naturetic Factor
Atrial Natiuric Factor
Arterial Natiuric Factor

Question 5

Question

Which of the following are pathways by which the heart responds to reduced CO?

Answer

Baroreceptor/sympathetic response
RAAS response
Hypertrophy of the heart

Question 6

Question

Systolic vs Diastolic heart failure. Which one has reduced ejection fraction?

Answer

Systolic
Diastolic

Question 7

Question

What’s HFpEF?

Answer

Heart Failure, preserved Ejection Fraction (Diastolic Failure)
Heart Failure, preserved Ejection Fraction (Systolic Failure)

Question 8

Question
