Define blood flow, blood pressure, and peripheral resistance. State and interpret the equation that relates blood flow to pressure and resistance. List the local, hormonal, and neuronal factors that affect peripheral resistance and explain the importance of each. Using a graph of pressures within the systemic circuit, interpret the pressure changes that occur in the arteries, capillaries, and veins. Given values for systolic and diastolic blood pressure, calculate pulse pressure (PP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP). Discuss how muscular compression and the respiratory pump aid venous return. During the baroreceptor reflex, explain how cardiac output and peripheral resistance are regulated to maintain adequate blood pressure on a moment-to-moment basis. Explain the role of the sympathetic nervous system in the regulation of blood pressure and volume. Explain the role of hormones in the regulation of blood pressure, including the mechanism by which specific hormones affect preload, heart rate, inotropic state, or vascular resistance.
