Circulatory systems cardiovascular components (pump + tubes)
valves, muscles
a) External pump
•blood pushed by compression of
surrounding muscles
•direction of flow determined by valves
e.g. human leg veins, arthropod limbs
b) Peristaltic contractions
•blood vessels or peristaltic hearts
contract
•waves of contractions push blood
c) Contractile chamber
closed chambers, valves
(e.g. vertberate heart)

Types of circulatory systems
1. OPEN CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
(most invertebrates)
Low pressure (< 1.5 kPa)
High volume (30% body vol.)
Slow velocity
Fig. « 9.7 »
Electrical conduction in the mammalian heart
depolarization (contraction)
repolarization (relaxation)
Normal pacemaker is the
SINOATRIAL NODE
Heart beat:
begins at SA node
spreads through atria
delayed at AV node
spreads through ventricles

2. CLOSED CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
(cephalopods, vertebrates)
High pressure (>12 kPa)
Low volume (5-10%)
High velocity
Distribution regulation
Ultrafiltration
Lymphatic system

Four chambered heart
Two completely separate circuits
pulmonary circuit
(low pressure)
systemic circuit
(high pressure)
Anatomy of the mammalian heart
adult heart
four chambers
complete separation
of left and right heart
fetal heart
foramen ovale
ductus arteriosus
pulmonary circuit not
functional
CARDIAC VALVES
•thin flaps of fibrous tissue
•move passively in response to
differential pressures
•prevent flow of blood
Atrioventricular valves
RA → RV
LA → LV
Semilunar valves
RV  PA
Pulmonary SL valve
LV  DA
Aortic SL valve (larger & stronger)
Heart Murmurs
Valve deformities  abnormal blood flow  murmurs
CORONARY CIRCULATION
•heart receives 4-5% of blood pumped
•coronary arteries arise at base of aorta
•blood enters only during ventricular
relaxation due to force of elastic recoil of aorta
•blockage of coronary arteries
causes heart failure
•coronary bypass
Electrical conduction in the mammalian heart

Fig. 9.19
Pressure changes in the heart and arteries of mammals
•greater pressure in left heart (supplies systemic circuit)
•lower pressure in right heart (supplies pulmonary circuit)
N.B. same volume changes at
different pressures
Fig. 9.26
STROKE VOLUME (SV)
= (end diastolic vol. - end systolic vol.) in healthy humans at rest
stroke volume ~ (140 - 60) ml = 80 ml
both ventricles eject same volume of blood (total blood volume in humans 5-6 L)
SV
regulated by:
end diastolic volume
SV  EDV
mean arterial pressure
SV  1/MAP
contractility
SV  C
End-diastolic volume determined by:
venous filling pressure
venoconstriction, skeletal muscle pump
atrial pressure
ventricular distensibility
filling time
Blood Pressures in human circulation
usually reported as mm Hg ( = torr)
normal range 120-130/80-85 mm Hg
(systolic/diastolic pressure)
CARDIAC OUTPUT (CO)
= stroke volume x heart rate
in healthy humans at rest, heart rate ~70 beats/min
cardiac output = 80 ml x 70 = 5.6 L/min
Frank-Starling Law of the Heart
Contractility  EDV
Increase in EDV causes:
•  in myocardial stretch
•  in contractile tension
•  in ventricular systolic pressure
 ventricular filling during diastole,
 ejection during systole
heart receives & ejects given
volume of blood each cardiac
cycle.

increased r  decreased resistance  increased flow
Compliance = D volume/D pressure
Venous system:
very compliant \volume reservoir
large volume changes result in small pressure changes
Arterial system:
less compliant \ pressure reservoir
maintain capillary flow

FUNCTIONS OF ARTERIAL SYSTEM

3.
4.
Deliver blood to capillaries
Pressure reservoir
Dampen oscillations in pressure and flow
Selectively control blood distribution
Arterial volume & pressure depend on:
-cardiac output (filling)
-capillary flow (emptying)
-capillary flow depends
on ∆ P (Parterial - Pvenous)
Aorta is a pressure reservoir

2.
blood storage reservoir (large volume, low pressure)
3.
maintain arterial pressure and capillary flow
Venous compliance related to large volume
ARTERIOLES

Regulation of circulation
Priorities:
maintain continuous perfusion of brain & heart
then supply other organs as needed
maintain ECF volume & composition
hyperemia

increased capillary flow
ischemia

cessation of capillary flow
 tissue metabolism   vessel dilation   flow
brain and heart continuously perfused, last to be deprived of
capillary flow
Distribution of cardiac output during exercise
Supplying O2 during exercise
in human
increase O2 delivery via:
increased Hb saturation
increase O2 extraction
increased cardiac output
Medullary cardiovascular center
receives inputs from
Baroreceptors
carotid sinus
aortic arch
subclavian
common carotid
pulmonary artery
Mechanoreceptors
atrial
ventricular
Chemoreceptors
arterial
ventricular
Skeletal muscle afferent fibres
Baroreceptors
Monitor blood pressure
e.g.
carotid sinus baroreceptors
spontaneous resting AP rate
 blood pressure =  stretch vessel wall   AP rate
 decrease CO via bradycardia and
 decrease peripheral vascular resistance
\ blood pressure (negative feedback)
Mechanoreceptors
Monitor stretch e.g. atrial myelinated B-fibres
spontaneous resting AP rate sensitive to atrial filling rate&volume
 blood volume   venous volume =  venous P 
 atrial filling   AP rate
 increase heart rate and
 increase diuresis
\  blood volume (negative feedback feedback)
Peripheral Chemoreceptors
Monitor O2, CO2, pH in arterial blood
primary effect on regulation of ventilation
During normal breathing:
decrease O2, increase CO2 = decrease pH
hyperventilation
peripheral vasodilation (except lungs)
increased cardiac output
During apnea (e.g. diving)
decreased O2
peripheral vasoconstriction (except brain and heart)
bradycardia
decreased cardiac output

Consequences of capillary filtration
bulk fluid flow in interstitial spaces a  v
carrying small organic molecules & ions
~85% of filtered fluid is uptaken (except in kidney) but 15% not recovered
gradual net loss of fluid from blood and edema
SOLUTION?
LYMPHATIC SYSTEM
- parallels veins in structure, function, and topography
- no connection with arterial system
- low pressure
FUNCTION
·return lymph to circulatory
system (3 L/day in humans)
·filter lymph at lymph nodes
·lymphocytes secrete antibodies
and destroy cells
·carry chylomicrons from
intestine to circulatory system
·carry albumin from liver to
circulatory system
Fig. 9.37
Causes of Edema
Increased blood pressure
increases filtration pressure at arterial end of capillaries
\ more fluid is filtered
Increased tissue protein
increases solutes in tissue interstitial fluid
\less fluid reabsorbed at venous end of capillaries
usually localized edema due to leakage of plasma protein
Decreased plasma protein
decreases solutes in plasma
\less fluid reabsorbed at venous end of capillaries caused by:
liver disease (decreased protein production)
kidney disease (leakage into urine)
protein malnutrition
Obstruction of lymph vessels
lymph accumulates
e.g. infections of filaria round worm
