 Capillary Beds and Diffusion
 Major Arteries and Veins of the Body
 Hepatic Portal Circulation
 Fetal Circulation
Blood Vessels: The Vascular System
 Taking blood to the tissues and back
• Arteries
o Arterioles
 Capillaries
o Venules
• Veins
The Vascular System
 Three layers (tunics)
• Tunic intima
o Endothelium
• Tunic media
o Smooth muscle
o Controlled by
sympathetic
nervous system
• Tunic externa
o Mostly fibrous
connective tissue
Figure 11.8b
Differences Between Blood Vessel Types
 Walls of arteries are the
thickest
 Lumens of veins are larger
 Walls of capillaries are
only one cell layer thick
to allow for exchanges
between blood and tissue
Movement of Blood Through Vessels
 Most arterial blood is
pumped by the heart
 Veins use the milking
action of muscles to
help move blood
 Expansion of vein
walls when lungs
inflate pulls

Capillary Beds
 Capillary beds consist
of two types of
vessels
• Vascular shunt –
directly connects
an arteriole to a
venule
• Shunt operates
during trauma,
cold temps
Figure 11.10
Capillary Beds
 True capillaries –
exchange vessels
o Oxygen and
nutrients cross to
cells
o Carbon dioxide
and metabolic
waste products
cross into blood

Measuring Arterial Blood Pressure


Measurements by health professionals
are made on the pressure in large arteries
•
Systolic – pressure at the peak of
ventricular contraction
•
Diastolic – pressure when ventricles
relax
Pressure in blood vessels decreases as the
distance away from the heart increases
Listen for the sounds of Kortokoff
Normal BP is 120/75-80

Comparison of Blood Pressures
Disease causing blood
pressure change
Arteriosclerosis:
Hardening of the artery
walls and decrease of
elasticity, restricting flow
and increasing blood
pressure.
Atherosclerosis: A specific
type of arterosclerosis
where arteries are clogged
by an accumulation of
plaques: cholesterol
particles (lipoproteins), fat,
calcium, cellular waste and
other substances.
One-way valves in veins prevent backflow
where positive pressure is at a mininum
Blood Pressure: Effects of Factors
Blood Pressure = Cardiac Output x Total Peripheral Resistance
BP = CO x TPR

Neural factors
•



Renal factors
•
Regulation by altering blood volume:
salt and water retention
•
Renin – hormonal control
Temperature
•
Heat has a vasodilating effect
•
Cold has a vasoconstricting effect
Chemicals
•

Autonomic nervous system
adjustments (sympathetic division):
vasoconstriction
Various substances can cause
increases or decreases
Diet
•
High salt causes elevated BP
Variations in Blood Pressure
 Human normal range is variable
• Normal
o 140–110 mm Hg systolic
o 80–75 mm Hg diastolic
• Hypotension
o Low systolic (below 110 mm HG)
o Often associated with illness or physical
conditioning
• Hypertension
o High systolic (above 140 mm HG)
o Can be dangerous if it is chronic
Developmental Aspects of the
Cardiovascular System
 A simple “tube heart” develops in the embryo and pumps by the fourth week
 The heart becomes a four-chambered organ by the end of seven weeks
 Few structural changes occur after the seventh week
 Congential heart defects sometimes arise
 Hypertrophy of the heart occurs through regular aerobic exercise
 Varicose veins develop as we age, along with atherosclerosis, & hypertension
