Control of Circulationand Arterial Pressure Chapter 6 Marijn Rolf
Outline • Heart • Autoregulation (Frank-Starling principle) • Central Nerve System • Organs • Autoregulation • Central Nerve System • Complete Model Description
Heart – Autoregulation Frank-Starling in short: ↑ venous return cardiac output ↑
Heart – Autoregulation Frank-Starling principle 1: With constant afterload the RV end-systolic volume is independent of the end-diastolic volume. ↑ venous return RV output ↑
Heart – Autoregulation Frank-Starling principle 2: The afterload of the RV is independent of the LA preload. The lungs compensate by using more capillaries. So: ↑ RV output LV filling ↑
Heart – Autoregulation Side effect of Frank-Starling: A higher pressure in the RA influences the depolarisation rate of the SA-node, resulting in an increased heartrate. So: ↑ venous pressure heart rate ↑
Heart – Central Nerve System Sympathetic nervesventriclesincreases heart rate and muscle contractility Parasympathic nerves (vagi)SA- and AV-node, atriadecreases heart rate
Heart – Central Nerve System Control loop is closed by baroreceptors on large arteries.Rising arterial pressure excites the baroreceptors, followed by a decrease in sympathetic activity.
Heart Model description: CO = HR * SV = HR * Kc * Pv
Organs - Autoregulation Depends on the organs’ metabolic needs. Arteriolar vasodilation is caused by: • Decreased O2 concentration • Increased CO2 • Adenosine release (waste product of ATP)
Organs – Central Nerve System Sympathetic activity (except in the brain)causes arteriolar vasoconstriction regulating mean arterial blood pressure
Organs Model
Organs Model description CO = (Pa-Pv)/Rper ΔPv = -Ca/Cv* ΔPa ↓ ΔPa = Cv/(Cv +Ca)*Rper*ΔCO ΔPv = Ca/(Cv +Ca)*Rper*ΔCO
Heart: Organs: CO = HR * SV = HR * Kc * Pv ΔPv = Ca/(Cv +Ca)*Rper*ΔCO Pv = Pm + Δ Pv Complete Model CO = Pm*HR*Kc 1+HR*Kc*Rper*Ca/(Ca+Cv)
