b) surIace area oI capillaries
c) number oI open capillaries at any given time
- usually constant
(space between two cells)
different sizes of cleft pores depending on tissue

Pc (pressure in capillary) is therefore related to volume in cap. bed.

b) increase Venous pr. -> decreasing vol. out of cap. bed (increase P2) -> increase vol. in
capillaries -> increase Pc
c) Vasocontstrict arterioles ( Resistance) -> decr. vol. into capillary bed -> decrease vol. in

Therefore will be a drive for H2O movement, H2O moves to dilute (due to concentrated amount of

Cardiovascular mechanics
These data describe the mechanical interactions between the heart and blood vessels.
The model contains two pumps and a systemic and a pulmonary vascular bed. Each
vascular bed has an arterial and a venous compartment. The pressure in a given
compartment depends on the volume oI Iluid divided by the cross-sectional area oI the bed.
The volume is distributed so that pressure gradients result in steady-state Ilows which match
pumping rates. The pumping rates depend upon ventricular Iunction 1.0 being normal.
Cardiac output is a linear Iunction oI venous Iilling pressure to approximate the Starling
eIIect. Arterial pressure has a slight loading eIIect on the stroke volume. Vascular
resistance and conductances are not inIluenced by the pressure. The model used does not
consider neural or hormonal compensations.
All values are returned to control beIore starting the next challenge. All pressures (P) are
in mmHg. Cardiac output is in L/min. All volumes (V) are in L. The systemic capillary
pressure (Pc) was estimated by solving Pc(0.25PaPv)/1.25
Where Pa is the mean arterial pressure and Pv is the systemic venous pressure. 0.25 is an
estimate oI the ratio oI systemic venous resistance to systemic arteriolar resistance.

2. decreased volume, decreased
pressure (not receiving as much in
this compartment)
- less volume in system
circulation
-less flow through
systemic circulation
3. increase in volume, increase in pressure (not
taking as much from this compartment)

due to the fact that R.H pumps
5.5L the pulm arteries are very elastic
not much changed due to such low
resistance in pulm. arterioles to begin
with. Low resistance because we have
to pump 5.5L across one capillary bed

Projections Irom baroRc medulla (brain stem)
iI AP Irequency:
a) inhibit vasoconstricter centre and cardioaccellerator centre
b) stimulate cardiodecellerator centre
c) hypothalamic nuclei that control ADH-VP secretion

MAP
its importance that we live on the steep part of the curve so that
small changes in pressure will make changes to the body
we live here
slowly adapting - over days
if high blood pressure, the body will aim to keep blood
pressure at this level, very difficult to bring down
not good for long term regulation
(increase MAP)
this must be connected to nodal cells of heart
this must be connected to smooth
muscle in arteries
cells of hypothalamus stimulate release of vasodepression
