Regulation of HeartbeatRegulation of Heartbeat avg teen HR (heart rate) 60-100 beats/min avg teen HR (heart rate) 60-100 beats/min
(bpm)(bpm) affected by age, fitness, stress…affected by age, fitness, stress… athletes have low HR, babies highathletes have low HR, babies high exercise, stress/fright inc. HRexercise, stress/fright inc. HR pacemaker in wall of R atrium regulates HRpacemaker in wall of R atrium regulates HR
PacemakerPacemaker sends electrical impulse over the atria to make sends electrical impulse over the atria to make
them contract (blood in)them contract (blood in) as atria contract, the impulse reaches the AV as atria contract, the impulse reaches the AV

Measuring Blood Pressure Measuring Blood Pressure (BP)(BP)
sphygmomanometer – pressure cuff to measure BPsphygmomanometer – pressure cuff to measure BP uses mm Hg (standard liquid pressure unit)uses mm Hg (standard liquid pressure unit) 2 numbers ex. 120/702 numbers ex. 120/70 11stst # = systolic pressure # = systolic pressure
– pressure in artery when vent. contractpressure in artery when vent. contract 22ndnd # = diastolic press. # = diastolic press.
– pressure in art. when vent. relaxedpressure in art. when vent. relaxed
BPBP
depends on cardiac output & resistance of depends on cardiac output & resistance of arteries to blood flowarteries to blood flow
Cardiac Output – amt blood pumped/minCardiac Output – amt blood pumped/min– as volume inc, so does pressureas volume inc, so does pressure
Resistance due to elasticity of artery wallsResistance due to elasticity of artery walls– if walls don’t expand easily, press incif walls don’t expand easily, press inc
