1 Department of medical physiology 5 th week Semester: winter Study program: Dental medicine Lecture: RNDr. Soňa Grešová, PhD. Department of medical physiology Faculty of Medicine PJŠU

2 Department of medical physiology 5 th week 1. Pressures in the pulmonary system 2. Transport of the respiratory gases by blood 3. Respiratory gases exchange 4. Blood flow through the lungs and ventilationperfusion ratio

3 1. Pressures in the Pulmonary System The systolic pressure in the right ventricle about 25 mm Hg, and the diastolic pressure averages about 0 to 1 mm Hg During systole, the pressure in the pulmonary artery is essentially equal to the pressure in the right ventricle about 25 mm Hg, the diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure is about 8 mm Hg, and the mean pulmonary arterial pressure is 15 mm Hg. The mean pulmonary capillary pressure, is about 7 mm Hg The mean pressure in the left atrium and the major pulmonary veins averages about 2 mm Hg (varying from as low as 1 mm Hg to as high as 5 mm Hg) Copyright: Hall, J. E., & Guyton, A. C. (2006). Guyton and Hall textbook of medical physiology. Philadelphia, PA: Saunders Elsevier.

4 1. Pressures in the pulmonary system Pulmonary capillaries Mean BP =7 mmhg Pulmonary arteries BP=25 mm Hg/8mmHg (Mean BP= 15 mmhg) Right ventricle BP= 25 mm Hg/0-1 mmhg The major pulmonary veins and the left atrium Mean BP= 5 mmhg The left ventricle BP= 120mmHg/0mmHg The systemic arteries Mean BP= 100 mmhg Calculation of mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) MAP = DBP (SBP-DBP)

Blood flow through the lungs no blood flow during all portions of the cardiac cycle and its distribution Zone 2: intermittent blood flow Zone 3: continuous blood flow Normally, the lungs have only zones 2 and 3 blood flow zone 2 (intermittent flow) in the apices, and zone 3 (continuous flow) in all the lower areas.
