• Cardiac Output is the sum of all tissue flows
and is affected by their regulation (CO =
5L/min, cardiac index = 3L/min/m2).
• CO is proportional to tissue O2. use.
• CO is proportional to 1/TPR when AP is
constant.
• F=P/R (Ohm’s law)
• CO = (MAP - RAP) / TPR, (RAP=0) then
• CO=MAP/TPR ; MAP=CO*TPR

Cardiac Contractility
Best is to measure the C.O. curve, but this is
nearly impossible in humans.
dP/dt is not an accurate measure because this
increases with increasing preload and afterload.
(dP/dt)/P ventricle is better. P ventricle is
instantaneous ventricular pressure.
Excess K+ decreases contractility.
Excess Ca++ causes spastic contraction, and low
Ca++ causes cardiac dilation.

36
Venous Pressure in the Body
• Compressional factors tend to
cause resistance to flow in large
peripheral veins.
• Increases in right atrial pressure
causes blood to back up into the
venous system thereby increasing
venous pressures.
• Abdominal pressures tend to
increase venous pressures in the
legs.

37
Central Venous Pressure
Pressure in the right atrium is called central venous pressure.
Right atrial pressure is determined by the balance of the heart pumping blood out of the right atrium and flow of blood from the large veins into the right atrium.
Central venous pressure is normally 0 mmHg, but can be as high as 20-30 mmHg.
![Page 38: Cardiac output and Venous Return - JU Medicine · HYPOEFFECTIVE CARDIAC OUTPUT CURVES. 25 20 15 10 5 0-4 0 +4 +8) Right Atrial Pressure (mmHg) (Parasympathetic stimulation) Zero sympathetic](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040400/5e6d91bc612f2862547d780f/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
Factors affecting Central Venous Pressure
Right atrial pressure (RAP) is
regulated by a balance between
the ability of the heart to pump
blood out of the atrium and the
rate of blood flowing into the
atrium from peripheral veins.
Factors that increase RAP:
-increased blood volume
-increased venous tone
- dilation of arterioles
-decreased cardiac function

• Beriberi - thiamine deficiency
arteriolar dilatation RVR
• (RVR= resistance to venous return)
because VR = (MSFP - RAP) /RVR
(good for positive RAP’s)
• A-V fistula (? RVR)
• RVR
• C. Hyperthyroidism (? RVR)

• Anemia RVR (why?)
• Sympathetics MSFP
• Blood volume MSFP + small

• Venous compliance (muscle
contraction or venous constriction)

• MSFP
