| circulatory system lecture notes: Regulation of Tissue Oxygenation, Second Edition Roland N. Pittman, 2016-08-18 This presentation describes various aspects of the regulation of tissue oxygenation, including the roles of the circulatory system, respiratory system, and blood, the carrier of oxygen within these components of the cardiorespiratory system. The respiratory system takes oxygen from the atmosphere and transports it by diffusion from the air in the alveoli to the blood flowing through the pulmonary capillaries. The cardiovascular system then moves the oxygenated blood from the heart to the microcirculation of the various organs by convection, where oxygen is released from hemoglobin in the red blood cells and moves to the parenchymal cells of each tissue by diffusion. Oxygen that has diffused into cells is then utilized in the mitochondria to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of all cells. The mitochondria are able to produce ATP until the oxygen tension or PO2 on the cell surface falls to a critical level of about 4–5 mm Hg. Thus, in order to meet the energetic needs of cells, it is important to maintain a continuous supply of oxygen to the mitochondria at or above the critical PO2 . In order to accomplish this desired outcome, the cardiorespiratory system, including the blood, must be capable of regulation to ensure survival of all tissues under a wide range of circumstances. The purpose of this presentation is to provide basic information about the operation and regulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, as well as the properties of the blood and parenchymal cells, so that a fundamental understanding of the regulation of tissue oxygenation is achieved. |

| circulatory system lecture notes: Fluid Mechanics for Cardiovascular Engineering Gianni Pedrizzetti, 2021-10-28 This book provides a guiding thread between the distant fields of fluid mechanics and clinical cardiology. Well rooted in the science of fluid dynamics, it drives the reader across progressively more realistic scenarios up to the complexity of routine medical applications. Based on the author’s 25 years of collaborations with cardiologists, it helps engineers learn communicating with clinicians, yet maintaining the rigor of scientific disciplines. This book starts with a description of the fundamental elements of fluid dynamics in large blood vessels. This is achieved by introducing a rigorous physical background accompanied by examples applied to the circulation, and by presenting classic and recent results related to the application of fluid dynamics to the cardiovascular physiology. It then explores more advanced topics for a physics-based understanding of phenomena effectively encountered in clinical cardiology. It stands as an ideal learning resource for physicists and engineers working in cardiovascular fluid dynamics, industry engineers working on biomedical/cardiovascular technology, and students in bio-fluid dynamics. Written with a concise style, this textbook is accessible to a broad readership, including students, physical scientists and engineers, offering an entry point into this multi-disciplinary field. It includes key concepts exemplified by illustrations using cutting-edge imaging, references to modelling and measurement technologies, and includes unique original insights. |

| circulatory system lecture notes: William Harvey and the Discovery of the Circulation of the Blood Thomas Henry Huxley, 2020-03-16 In William Harvey and the Discovery of the Circulation of the Blood, Thomas Henry Huxley undertakes an incisive exploration of the pioneering work of William Harvey, whose groundbreaking revelations transformed the understanding of human anatomy and physiology in the early 17th century. Huxley's narrative deftly combines historical context with scientific analysis, employing a clear and engaging prose style that makes complex ideas accessible. He situates Harvey within the Renaissance's fervent spirit of inquiry, highlighting how Harvey's methodical experimentation and rejection of established norms led to the monumental discovery of the circulatory system 'Äì a pivotal moment in medical history. Thomas Henry Huxley, a prominent biologist and advocate for Darwinian evolution, was known for his commitment to scientific rigor and public discourse. His fascination with the foundations of biological science and medical education likely spurred him to write this account, as he sought to illuminate the empirical methods that underpin scientific progress. By revisiting Harvey's contributions, Huxley emphasizes the interplay between observation and theory, reflecting his own dedication to evidence-based understanding in the face of prevailing dogmas. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of medical science and the historical figures who shaped it. Huxley'Äôs insightful analysis not only pays homage to Harvey'Äôs legacy but also invites readers to appreciate the critical importance of rigorous scientific inquiry. For scholars and enthusiasts alike, this compelling narrative serves as both an educational resource and a celebration of one of history'Äôs great scientific revolutions. |

| circulatory system lecture notes: An Anatomical Disquisition on the Motion of the Heart & Blood in Animals William Harvey, 2022-08-21 William Harvey's An Anatomical Disquisition on the Motion of the Heart & Blood in Animals (1628) is a groundbreaking work that radically transformed the understanding of human physiology and anatomy. This seminal text employs a meticulous empirical approach and integrates detailed anatomical observations with a passionate philosophical inquiry into the nature of life itself. Harvey's use of clear, methodical prose, combined with authoritative empirical evidence, challenges existing notions of blood movement and posits the revolutionary theory of circulation, wherein blood is propelled through a closed system by the heart'Äîa concept that vastly altered the landscape of medical science. Harvey, trained in both medicine and philosophy, was deeply influenced by the scientific discoveries of the Renaissance. His exposure to the works of anatomists and his own dissections contributed to his revolutionary ideas. Bridging the gulf between medieval scholasticism and modern science, Harvey's endeavors reflect the Enlightenment's spirit of inquiry and emphasize observation over tradition, showcasing his commitment to advancing human understanding of biology and medicine. This book is essential for readers interested in the history of medicine, physiology, or the evolution of scientific thought.

| circulatory system lecture notes: American Nursing Patricia D'Antonio, 2010-07-11 First Place, History and Public Policy, 2010 American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Awards This new interpretation of the history of nursing in the United States captures the many ways women reframed the most traditional of all gender expectations—that of caring for the sick—to create new possibilities for themselves, to renegotiate the terms of some of their life experiences, and to reshape their own sense of worth and power. For much of modern U.S. history, nursing was informal, often uncompensated, and almost wholly the province of female family and community members. This began to change at the end of the nineteenth century when the prospect of formal training opened for women doors that had been previously closed. Nurses became respected professionals, and becoming a formally trained nurse granted women a range of new social choices and opportunities that eventually translated into economic mobility and stability. Patricia D'Antonio looks closely at this history—using a new analytic framework and a rich trove of archival sources—and finds complex, multiple meanings in the individual choices of women who elected a nursing career. New relationships and social and professional options empowered nurses in constructing consequential lives, supporting their families, and participating both in their communities and in the health care system. Narrating the experiences of nurses, D'Antonio captures the possibilities, power, and problems inherent in the different ways women defined their work and lived their lives. Scholars in the history of medicine, nursing, and public policy, those interested in the intersections of identity, work, gender, education, and race, and nurses will find this a provocative book. |
