Concept explainers
To review:
The symptoms of the hypovolemic shock, which are related to the actual loss of body fluids and which result in a negative feedback of the systems for regulating the blood pressure and flow of blood.
Introduction:
Shock is a life-threatening condition, which can result from a failure of the cardiovascular system, in the supply of oxygen, and other nutrients to the various parts of the body that prevents the normal

- what is the relationship between heart rate ( arrhythmia and potassium level .and what is the relationship between magnesium level and arrhythmic threshold ..... explain howarrow_forwardIn what ways are autorhythmic fibers similar to and diff erent from contractile fibers?arrow_forwardwould an increase in blood viscosity cause an increase in pressure?arrow_forward
- What changes take place in the body when moving from a prone to standing position quickly, in regards to circulation at the regional and whole body level?arrow_forwardIn response to severely low blood pressure, ADH is secreted. How does ADH secretion help return blood pressure to its setpoint? How might blood pressure respond in an individual who has excess ADH secretion, a condition known as syndrome ofinappropriate ADH secretion?arrow_forwardWhat causes hypotension during a severe allergic response?arrow_forward
- What is the osmotic pressure of blood?arrow_forwardWhat is the physiological function of pulse rate in response to persons active activities?arrow_forwardAnswer both questions, they follow each other 1a)Which of the following is a function of the smooth muscle layer of arterioles during the transition to exercise because of the binding of the hormone epinephrine to a beta-adrenergic receptor? Group of answer choices a)Increase MAP as a response in a negative feedback arc b)Increase the distribution of blood to skeletal muscles during exercise c)Increase TPR d)Increased cardiac output e)Decreased heart rate 1b) Which of the following is a mechanism largely responsible for distributing more blood to Jose's skeletal muscles? Group of answer choices a)Decreased sympathetic stimulation of arteriolar smooth muscles b)Increased parasympathetic stimulation of arteriolar smooth muscles c)Autoflow regulation d)Active hyperemiaarrow_forward
- What happens to systemic blood pressure when the smooth muscle of muscular atries contract?arrow_forwardBlood pressure at the arterial end of capillaries is about 40 mm Hg in humans. If blood pressure at the venous end is about 15 mm Hg, and colloid osmotic pressure is 25 mm Hg throughout, what is the net effect on fluid movement between capillaries and tissue spaces?arrow_forwardWhy is intrapleural pressure always negative?arrow_forward
