Shock and Stuff
This type of circulatory shock is a result of bacterial toxins in the blood stream.
Septic shock
The name for the passage of blood flow between the heart and the lungs (think circuit)
pulmonary circuit
bypasses capillaries, and goes straight to veins
anastomosis
physical force against the vessel wall
hydrostatic pressure
low blood pressure
hypotension
This type of circulatory shock is considered to be life threatening positive feedback.
decompensated anaphylactic shock
what main factor allows for blood flow to be drained back to the heart from the head and neck
gravity
which type of capillary has holes on the wall and most likely found in the kidney
fenestrated capillary
difference in COP of the capillary and COP of the tissues
oncotic pressure
vessels that carry blood away from the heart
artery
Shock as a result of a decrease in blood volume due to trauma
hypovolemic
Blood from the lower limbs is primarily pushed back to the heart via the
skeletal muscle pump
word that describes when a substance moves from an area of high concentration to low concentration
diffusion
which pressure will result in fluid leaving the capillary
net filtration pressure
where nutrient and waste exchange occurs
capillaries
What is the medical term for stroke
cerebrovascular accident
which vessel is the only vessel to contain valves, and why?
medium veins
in order to help push blood back to the heart against gravity
a capillary only has which layer of the vessel wall?
tunica interna
the following equation describes which pressure type?
diastolic + ⅓ pulse pressure
rate of flow at given mass of given tissue
perfusion
Which type of shock most commonly results in syncope?
venous pooling
Which organ dictates the thoracic pump
diaphragm
what structure describes the gaps between endothelial cells
intercellular clefts
Which type of pressure describes a measure of the amount of stress placed on smaller vessels by each heartbeat
pulse pressure
out of the 5 different types of vessels, which is known to be the resistance vessel
arteriole
