Blood Flow
• Blood is constantly reconditioned so composition
remains relatively constant
• Reconditioning organs receive more blood than
needed for metabolic needs
– Digestive organs, kidneys, skin
– Adjust extra blood to achieve homeostasis
• Blood flow to other organs can be adjusted
according to metabolic needs
• Brain can least tolerate disrupted supply

Blood Flow
• Flow rate through a vessel (volume of blood passing
through per unit of time) is directly proportional to
the pressure gradient and inversely proportional to
vascular resistance
F = ΔP
R
F = flow rate of blood through a vessel
ΔP = pressure gradient
R = resistance of blood vessels
Blood Flow
• Pressure gradient is pressure difference between beginning
and end of a vessel
– Blood flows from area of higher pressure to area of lower
pressure
• Resistance is measure of opposition of blood flow through a
vessel
– Depends on three things
• Blood viscosity, vessel length, vessel radius
– Major determinant of resistance to flow is vessel’s radius
– Slight change in radius produces significant change in
blood flow
R is proportional to 1

Outline
• Arteries
– “pressure reservoir”
– anatomy
Arteries
• Specialized to
– Serve as rapid-transit passageways for blood
from heart to organs
• Due to large radius, arteries offer little resistance to
blood flow
– Act as pressure reservoir to provide driving force
for blood when heart is relaxing
• Arterial connective tissue contains
– Collagen fibers
» Provide tensile strength
– Elastin fibers
» Provide elasticity to arterial walls
Arteries as a Pressure Reservoir
Outline
• Blood pressure
– Systolic/diastolic
– Measurements
• Pressure and pulse
– Mean arterial pressure
– Pressure abnormalities
Blood Pressure
• Force exerted by blood against a vessel wall
– Depends on
• Volume of blood contained within vessel
• Compliance of vessel walls how easily the vessel
distends when it fills with blood
• Systolic pressure
– Peak pressure exerted by ejected blood against
vessel walls during cardiac systole
– Averages 120 mm Hg
• Diastolic pressure
– Minimum pressure in arteries when blood is
draining off into vessels downstream
– Averages 80 mm Hg
Blood Pressure
• Can be measured indirectly using
sphygmomanometer and stethascope
– Sounds heard when determining blood pressure
– Sounds are distinct from heart sounds associated
with valve closure

Pulse Pressure
• Pressure difference between systolic and diastolic
pressure
• Example
– If blood pressure is 120/80, pulse pressure is 40
mm Hg (120mm Hg – 80mm Hg)
• Pulse that can be felt in artery lying close to surface
of skin is due to pulse pressure
Mean Arterial Pressure
• Average pressure driving blood forward into tissues
throughout cardiac cycle
• Formula for approximating mean arterial pressure
Mean arterial pressure = diastolic pressure + ⅓ pulse pressure
At 120/80, mean arterial pressure = 80 mm Hg +
⅓ (40 mm Hg) = 93 mm Hg

Outline
• Arterioles
– Resistance vessels
– Vasoconstriction and vasodilation
– Regulation of arteiolar diameter
• Local factors
• Endothelial cells, nitric oxide
Arterioles
• Major resistance vessels
• Radius supplying individual organs can be adjusted
independently to
– Distribute cardiac output among systemic organs,
depending on body’s momentary needs
– Help regulate arterial blood pressure
Arterioles
• Mechanisms involved in adjusting arteriolar
resistance
– Vasoconstriction
• Refers to narrowing of a vessel
– Vasodilation
• Refers to enlargement in circumference and radius of
vessel
• Results from relaxation of smooth muscle layer
• Leads to decreased resistance and increased flow
through that vessel
Arteriolar Vasoconstriction and Vasodilation
Arterioles
• Only blood supply to brain remains constant
• Changes within other organs alter radius of vessels
and adjust blood flow to organ
• Local chemical influences on arteriolar radius
– Local metabolic changes
– Histamine release
• Local physical influences on arteriolar radius
– Local application of heat or cold
– Chemical response to shear stress
– Myogenic response to stretch
Magnitude and Distribution
Of the Cardiac Output at Rest
and During Moderate Exercise
Arterioles
• Specific local chemical factors that produce
relaxation of arteriolar smooth muscle
– Decreased O2
– Increased CO2
– Increased acid
– Increased K+
– Increased osmolarity
– Adenosine release
– Prostaglandin release
Arterioles
•
•
Local vasoactive mediators
– Endothelial cells
• Release chemical mediators that play key role in locally regulating arteriolar
caliber
• Release locally acting chemical messengers in response to chemical
changes in their environment
• Among best studied local vasoactive mediators is nitric oxide (NO) causes
releaxation of arteriolar smooth muscle (vasodilation)
Specific local chemical factors that produce relaxation of arteriolar smooth muscle
– Decreased O2
– Increased CO2
– Increased acid
– Increased K+
– Increased osmolarity
– Adenosine release
– Prostaglandin release
Arterioles
•
Extrinsic control
– Accomplished primarily by sympathetic nerve influence
– Accomplished to lesser extent by hormonal influence over arteriolar
smooth muscle
•
Cardiovascular control center
– In medulla of brain stem
– Integrating center for blood pressure regulation
•
Other brain regions also influence blood distribution
– Hypothalamus
• Controls blood flow to skin to adjust heat loss to environment
•
Hormones that influence arteriolar radius
– Adrenal medullary hormones
• Epinephrine and norepinephrine
– Generally reinforce sympathetic nervous system in most organs
• Vasopressin and angiotensin II
– Important in controlling fluid balance
Outline
• Capillaries
– Exchange and anatomy
– Pressures driving diffusion
Capillaries
• Thin-walled, small-radius, extensively branched
• Sites of exchange between blood and surrounding
tissue cells
– Maximized surface area and minimized diffusion
distance
– Velocity of blood flow through capillaries is
relatively slow
• Provides adequate exchange time
– Two types of passive exchanges
• Diffusion
• Bulk flow
• Factors affecting diffusion
– Ficks law of diffusion
– Slow blood velocity
– Permeability
– Metarterioles and precapillary sphincters
– Exchanges
• Blood to interstitial fluid to cell
– Passive
– Active
– Bulk Flow
• Ultrafiltration
• reabsorption

Bulk Flow
• Bulk flow occurs when protein-free plasma filters out of
the capillary, mixes with the interstitial fluid and then is
reabsorbed.
• Important in regulating the distribution of ECF between
plasma and interstitial fluid to help maintain arterial blood
pressure.
• Depends on two processes:
– Ultrafiltration occurs when pressure inside the capillary exceeds
pressure outside and fluid is pushed out through the pores.
– Reabsorption occurs when inward-driving pressures exceed outward
pressures and net movement of fluid back into the capillaries occurs.
• Bulk flow occurs because of differences in the:
– Hydrostatic pressure (pushes fluid out of the capillary bed)
– Colloid osmotic pressures between plasma and interstitial fluid.
– Plasma colloid osmotic pressure draws fluid back into the capillary bed.

Capillaries
• Narrow, water-filled gaps (pores) lie at junctions
between cells
• Permit passage of water-soluble substances
• Lipid soluble substances readily pass through
endothelial cells by dissolving in lipid bilayer barrier
• Size of pores varies from organ to organ
Capillaries
• Under resting conditions many capillaries are not
open
• Capillaries surrounded by precapillary sphincters
• Contraction of sphincters reduces blood flowing into
capillaries in an organ
• Relaxation of sphincters has opposite effect
• Metarteriole
– Runs between an arteriole and a venule

Lymphatic System
•
•
•
•
•
Extensive network of one-way
vessels
Provides accessory route by
which fluid can be returned
from interstitial to the blood
Initial lymphatics
– Small, blind-ended terminal
lymph vessels
– Permeate almost every
tissue of the body
Lymph
– Interstitial fluid that enters a
lymphatic vessel
Lymph vessels
– Formed from convergence
of initial lymphatics
– Eventually empty into
venous system near where
blood enters right atrium
– One way valves spaced at
intervals direct flow of
lymph toward venous outlet
in chest
Lymphatic System
• Functions
– Return of excess filtered fluid
– Defense against disease
• Lymph nodes have phagocytes which destroy bacteria
filtered from interstitial fluid
– Transport of absorbed fat
– Return of filtered protein
elephantiasis
Outline
• Veins
– Capacitance vessels
– Regulation of pressure and flow
– Venous return
Veins
• Venous system transports blood back to heart
• Capillaries drain into venules
• Venules converge to form small veins that exit
organs
• Smaller veins merge to form larger vessels
• Veins
– Large radius offers little resistance to blood flow
– Also serve as blood reservoir
