Cardiovascular System — Flashcards

Depolarization proceeds from the _____cardium to the epicardium in an intact cardiac muscle.

The third phase of Lewis' triple response is _____ which occurs due to local edema, secondary consequent extravasation of fluid

Inspiration delays closure of the _____ valve which causes splitting of the S2 heart sound

Type _____ failure, also called as shock, is because of hypoperfusion of respiratory muscles in patients with shock

Increased _____ results in a(n) decreased width and increased height on a pressure-volume loop curve

A(n) _____ in TPR causes a(n) downward shift of the cardiac function curve

_____ is released from atrial myocytes in response to increased blood volume and atrial pressure

Increased _____ results in an increased width and increased height on a pressure-volume loop curve

Cerebral blood flow is autoregulated extremely well between arterial pressure limits of _____ and 140 mm Hg

The second phase of Lewis' triple response is _____ which occurs due to arteriolar dilatation, secondary to axon reflex
