It is the pressure wave which It is the pressure wave which travels along the walls of arteries when travels along the walls of arteries when blood is ejected from left ventricle into blood is ejected from left ventricle into aorta during systole.aorta during systole.

when this pressure wave travels when this pressure wave travels along walls of arteries along walls of arteries expansion of expansion of art. Walls art. Walls palpated as arterial pulse. palpated as arterial pulse.

Page 3: Arterial pulse

The transmission of pressure pulse The transmission of pressure pulse wave is independent and much faster than wave is independent and much faster than the velocity of blood flow.the velocity of blood flow.

Normally Art. Pulse ends in arteriolesNormally Art. Pulse ends in arterioles there are no capillary pulsations .there are no capillary pulsations .

No pulsations in vein except jugular No pulsations in vein except jugular vein.vein. The amplitude of arterial pulse depends The amplitude of arterial pulse depends on pulse pressure. on pulse pressure.

Stroke volumeStroke volume

Pulse pressure is directly Pulse pressure is directly proportional to stroke volume.proportional to stroke volume.

Stroke volume is effected Stroke volume is effected by:by:

heart rate heart rate total peripheral resistance total peripheral resistance mean systemic filling pressure. mean systemic filling pressure.

If there is incr TPR If there is incr TPR arterioles are arterioles are constricted –> less blood flows to constricted –> less blood flows to tissues –> decreased venous return –tissues –> decreased venous return –> and stroke volume.> and stroke volume.

Venous return is directly proportional Venous return is directly proportional to mean systemic filling pressure.to mean systemic filling pressure.

If this pressure incr –> Incr venous If this pressure incr –> Incr venous

ELASTICITY OF ARTERIESELASTICITY OF ARTERIES

Pulse pressure is inversely Pulse pressure is inversely proportional to elasticity of arteries .proportional to elasticity of arteries .

In more elastic arteries pulse In more elastic arteries pulse pressure decr.pressure decr.

With age –> arteries are less elastic With age –> arteries are less elastic –> more pulse pressure.–> more pulse pressure.

CHARACTER OF EJECTION OF CHARACTER OF EJECTION OF BLOOD FROM LEFT VENTRICLE BLOOD FROM LEFT VENTRICLE INTO AORTAINTO AORTA

Sudden ejection of blood leads to Sudden ejection of blood leads to incr pulse pressure as compared to incr pulse pressure as compared to gradual ejection.gradual ejection.

Normally blood ejection is sudden Normally blood ejection is sudden with opening of semilunar valves.with opening of semilunar valves.

In aortic stenosis In aortic stenosis Slow ejection Slow ejection

decr pulse pressure. decr pulse pressure.

Page 11: Arterial pulse

When blood is ejected from ventricle When blood is ejected from ventricle pressure wave is produced in the pressure wave is produced in the wall of aorta wall of aorta travels to peripheral travels to peripheral arteries.arteries.

Velocity of pressure pulse wave is Velocity of pressure pulse wave is faster than velocity of blood.faster than velocity of blood.

The velocity of pressure pulse wave The velocity of pressure pulse wave is 15 time > than velocity of blood in is 15 time > than velocity of blood in aortaaorta

It is 100 times > than velocity of It is 100 times > than velocity of blood flow in peripheral arteries.blood flow in peripheral arteries.

The velocity of pressure pulse waves The velocity of pressure pulse waves incr as it travels from aorta to incr as it travels from aorta to peripheral arteries.peripheral arteries.

The elasticity of arteries decr as we The elasticity of arteries decr as we go from Aorta to peripheral arteries.go from Aorta to peripheral arteries.

This is the reason for increased in This is the reason for increased in velocity of pressure pulse wave. velocity of pressure pulse wave.

Pulse pressure incr Pulse pressure incr the pressure the pressure wave travels from Aorta to peripheral wave travels from Aorta to peripheral arteries arteries This is because of This is because of augmentationaugmentation

Two types of waves.Two types of waves.

1.1. On coming waveOn coming wave2.2. Reflected waveReflected wave

There is summation of oncoming There is summation of oncoming wave and reflected wave wave and reflected wave results into results into incr pulse pressure incr pulse pressure b/c of production b/c of production of a larger wave.of a larger wave.

These two wave do not neutralize each These two wave do not neutralize each other rather they are summated. other rather they are summated.

The cause of reflection is loss of elasticity.The cause of reflection is loss of elasticity.

Pressure pulse wave when reaches arterioles Pressure pulse wave when reaches arterioles there is damping there is damping pressure pulse ends in pressure pulse ends in arterioles arterioles no further transmission of pressure no further transmission of pressure wave into capillaries wave into capillaries

Arterioles are resistant vessels Arterioles are resistant vessels there is there is damping damping pressure wave dies pressure wave dies not transmitted not transmitted to capillaries (normally )to capillaries (normally )

Page 17: Arterial pulse

In some conditions the pressure pulse In some conditions the pressure pulse wave may be transmitted to capillaries to wave may be transmitted to capillaries to produce capillary pulsation –produce capillary pulsation –

this occurs in:this occurs in:

1.1. Incr pulse pressure which is due to incr Incr pulse pressure which is due to incr stroke volume.stroke volume.

2.2. Extreme dilatation of arterioles Extreme dilatation of arterioles arterioles arterioles are dilated are dilated less damping less damping transmission transmission of pressure pulse wave to capillaries. of pressure pulse wave to capillaries.
