Cardiovascular and Respiratory
Systems: Getting Oxygen From
Air to Muscle
Integration of Ventilation, Heart,
and Circulation
Cardiorespiratory System
Functions of cardiorespiratory system:
 transportation of O2 and CO2
 transportation of nutrients/waste products
 distribution of hormones
 thermoregulation
 maintenance of blood pressure
Ability of
cardiorespiratory
system to maintain high
arterial oxygen levels
(PaO2) during graded
exercise to exhaustion
Critical elements of O2 Transport Pathway
 Ventilation
– Moving air in/out of lungs
 External respiration
– Gas exchange between alveoli and blood
 Heart and circulation
 O2 diffusion into mitochondria
Role of the Heart
Moving O2 from lungs to muscle
Oxygen Delivery Determines VO2
(Fick Principle)
VO2 = Q  (CaO2 – CvO2)
VO2 = [HR  SV]  (CaO2 – CvO2)
VO2 = [BP  TPR]  (CaO2 – CvO2)
Cardiac Cycle
 systole  diastole
 cardiac output (Q) = stroke volume (SV) 
heart rate (HR)
examples
– rest: SV = 75 ml; HR = 60 bpm; Q = 4.5 Lmin-1
– exercise: SV = 130 ml; HR = 180 bpm; Q = 23.4 Lmin-1
Cardiac output affected by:
1. preload – end diastolic pressure
(amount of myocardial stretch)
2. afterload – resistance blood
encounters as it leaves ventricles
3. contractility – strength of cardiac
contraction
4. heart rate
Muscle pump and
one-way valves
assist venous
return
Cardiac Output Regulation
Extrinsic control
 autonomic nervous
system
– sympathetic NS (1
control at HR >100 bpm)
• NE released as neural
transmitter
– parasympathetic NS (1
control at HR <100 bpm)
• ACh released as neural
transmitter
 hormonal
– EPI, NE

Lungs and Pulmonary Circulation
 alveolar membrane thickness is ~ 0.1 µm
 total alveolar surface area is ~75 m2
 80-90% of alveoli are covered by
capillaries
 pulmonary circulation varies with cardiac
output and matched to ventilation rate
Gases Move Down Pressure Gradients
O2 and CO2 transit time

arterial blood with O2 (SaO2) when pulmonary
blood flow is faster than the diffusion rate of O2?
A. SaO2 would remain unchanged
B. SaO2 would be decreased

Rate of gas diffusion is dependent
upon pressure (concentration)
gradient.
Erythrocyte (RBC)
 ~98% of O2 is bound up with
hemoglobin (Hb)
Hb consists of four O2-binding
heme (iron containing) molecules
combines reversibly w/ O2 (forms
oxy-hemoglobin)
1-2% of O2 is dissolved in plasma

Ventilatory Response to Exercise
and Control of Blood pH
Minute ventilation (VE) response to different exercise intensities
Ventilatory Control Mechanisms
Current thought is that
primary control of
ventilation is:
• from muscle afferents
sensory inputs
• to control arterial
PCO2,(peripheral
PCO2
chemoreceptors)
• to minimize  in blood
pH (peripheral pH

Ventilatory Regulation of Acid-Base
Balance
CO2 + H2O  H2CO3  H+ + HCO3 at low-intensity exercise, source of CO2 is entirely from
substrate metabolism
 bicarbonate (HCO3-) buffers H+ produced during highintensity exercise
 at high-intensity exercise, bicarbonate ions also
contribute to CO2 production
– source of CO2 is from substrates and bicarbonate ions (HCO3-)
  blood [H+] stimulates VE to rid excess CO2 (and H+)

Regulation of cardiorespiratory system
Vascular system
aorta  arteries  arterioles 
capillaries 
venules  veins  vena cava
Vascular smooth muscle
allows vessels to
constrict in response to
SNS stimulation or local
factors
Arterioles and
Capillaries
 arterioles  terminal arterioles (TA)  capillaries 
collecting venules (CV) 
 arterioles regulate circulation into tissues

Blood vessels are surrounded by
sympathetic nerves. A feed
artery was stained to reveal
catecholamine-containing nerve
fibers in vascular smooth muscle
cell layer. This rich network
extends throughout arterioles but
not into capillaries or venules.
Local factors that control arterioles
