Image Description
This concept map illustrates the steps of perfusion. The flow is as follows:
Respiration
- Alveolar gas exchange
- Oxygenated blood
- Blood flow
- Heart rate
- Cardiac output (this also connects to alveolar gas exchange)
- Preload
- Volume
- Afterload
- Constriction
- Dilation
- Contractility
- Starlings law
- Preload
- Contractility heart muscle
- Heart failure (this also connects to heart rate, Starlings law and constriction)
- Myocardial infraction
- Cellular uptake and nutrientss and 02 feed cells
- Drugs
- Calcium channel blocker
- Beta blockers
- Heart rate and contractility (this also connects to blood flow)
- Anti anginals
- Nitrates
- Coronary vasodilation
- Nitrates
