64Describe the lymphatic drainage pathway
[blank_start]Tracheal[blank_end] ducts – head, neck + proximal FL
[blank_start]R[blank_end] [blank_start]Lymphatic[blank_end] duct – R thorax
[blank_start]Cisterna[blank_end] [blank_start]chyli[blank_end] – abonormal lymphocenters, HL + Pelvis via lumbar ducts

65Explain how the lymphatic system acts to maintain fluid balance in the body
* Net filtration of fluid from blood capillaries = fluid moves into [blank_start]ISF[blank_end]
* [blank_start]Bulk[blank_end] [blank_start]flow[blank_end] into lymphatic capillaries
* [blank_start]Protein[blank_end] uptake also – lowers [blank_start]ISF[blank_end] oncotic pressure & [blank_start]increases[blank_end] diffusion from ISF into lymphatics- AISF
- BBulk
- Cflow
- DProtein
- EISF
- Fincreases
66Flow within lymphatic system due to bulk flow
* Overall [blank_start]HSP[blank_end] gradient leading into venous system (P lowest in veins)
* External pressure from [blank_start]skeletal[blank_end] muscle
* Smooth muscle in walls of [blank_start]larger[blank_end] lymphatics
* Valves prevent [blank_start]backflow[blank_end]- AHSP
- Bskeletal
- Clarger
- Dbackflow
67Failure of lymphatic drainage leads to formation of [blank_start]oedema[blank_end] (fluid in the interstitial space) or effusions (free fluid within a cavity– e.g. pleural effusion).
• Disease of the lymphatic system (e.g. lymphangitis)
• Capacity is overwhelmed (e.g. [blank_start]congestive[blank_end] [blank_start]heart[blank_end] failure (CHF) leads to excessive [blank_start]ISF[blank_end] volume)
• Derangement of [blank_start]hydrostatic[blank_end] [blank_start]pressure[blank_end] [blank_start]gradient[blank_end] preventing drainage (e.g. a tight bandage)- Aoedema
- Bcongestive
- Cheart

* [blank_start]Antigen[blank_end] presentation
* Movement of [blank_start]lymphatic[blank_end] cells
* Transport of some [blank_start]proteins[blank_end]

70Intrinsic controls of blood flow
• Metabolic autoregulation – matches blood flow to [blank_start]metabolic[blank_end] rate
• Paracrine control – locally acting chemicals which alter flow rate in response to local [blank_start]environment[blank_end]
[blank_start]Nitric oxide[blank_end] - ↑ BF velocity – [blank_start]VD[blank_end]
Prostacyclin/[blank_start]Histamine[blank_end]/ Bradykinin – Local irritation –[blank_start]VD[blank_end]

72Explain metabolic autoregulation of blood flow to tissues and describe how this maintains brain blood flow.
An increase in BP leads to [blank_start]increase[blank_end] in [blank_start]perfusion[blank_end] of tissue = delivers more [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end] and removes waste products more rapidly = [blank_start]VC[blank_end] = [blank_start]decr[blank_end] perfusion.
= [blank_start]BP[blank_end] and perfusion in ess organs maintained within small range.- Aincrease

= less blood perfuse- AVC
- BReduced
- CHSP
74Explain the implications of short- and long-term compression of blood vessels in different tissues
Vessel compression
Short term – [blank_start]reactive[blank_end] hyperaemia
• depletion of [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end] and build-up of waste products continues - when flow is re-established the blood flow increases above [blank_start]normal[blank_end] for a short time until the waste products have been removed and the oxygen [blank_start]debt[blank_end] repaid.
Long term
• [blank_start]reduces[blank_end] BF to tissues ([blank_start]ischemia[blank_end]) = damage(infarction) + death (necrosis)- Areactive

* Also causes reduced activity and [blank_start]vasoconstriction[blank_end] in non-essential organs

80Fight or flight response
Response to sudden stress = large increase in [blank_start]CO[blank_end] and Skeletal muscle activity.
α adrenergic activation = VC of non ess organs + abdominal organs = ↑ [blank_start]preload[blank_end].
β1 activation = increased [blank_start]heart[blank_end] [blank_start]rate[blank_end] and contractility, shorter refractory period.
β2 activation = [blank_start]vasodilation[blank_end] in cardiac and skeletal muscle, along with sympathetic cholinergic [blank_start]M3[blank_end] activation

81Return to normality
* Parasympathetic activation of [blank_start]M2[blank_end] cholinergic receptor at sympathetic nerve endings in heart and on cardiac [blank_start]myocytes[blank_end] = reduced heart rate and contractility
