A fall in BP causes __ to send fewer impulses to CV centers in the spinal cord. This prompts a reflex response of increased sympathetic and decreased parasympathetic output to the heart and vasculature, resulting in vasoconstriction and increased cardiac output.

Most frequently used diuretics | Thiazides |
Produce greater diuresis than the thiazides, but have a weaker antihypertensive effect and can cause SEVERE ELECTROLYTE BALANCE | Furosemide, ethacrynic acid, bumetanide- loop diuretics |
Useful in combination with a thiazide diuretic, whose effects they potentiate and they minimize K+ loss; K+-sparing diuretics | Spironolactone, triamterene, amiloride |
Principal function of Loop of Henle | The recovery of water and sodium chloride from urine. |
Selective β1 blockers , the most commonly prescribed βB | Metoprolol, atenolol |
Nonselective BB causes bronchoconstriction thus not to be used in __ patients due to their blockade of β2-mediated bronchodilation. | Asthmatic can precipitate bronchospasm in patients with bronchial asthma |
Adverse effects of BB | 1 Common effects: bradycardia, hypotension, and CNS side effects such as fatigue, lethargy, and insomnia βB may decrease libido and cause erectile dysfunction, which can severely reduce patient compliance. 2 Alterations in serum lipid patterns 3 Drug withdrawal: Abrupt withdrawal may induce ANGINA, MI, and even sudden death in patients with ischemic heart disease. |
Lower blood pressure by reducing peripheral vascular resistance without reflexively increasing cardiac output, heart rate, or contractility. | ACE INHIBITORS (ACEIn) |
Ace inhibitors block the enzyme __ the ACE which cleaves angiotensin I to form the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II. | Peptidyl dipeptidase |
Recommended as first-line treatment of hypertension in patients with high coronary disease risk | Enalapril and lisinopril |
While on ACE Inhibitors, we should monitor __ | 1 Potassium Levels K supplements and K-sparing diuretics should be used with caution due to the risk of hyperkalemia. 2 Serum Creatinine Levels particularly in patients with underlying renal disease. |
ACE inhibitors can induce __ and should not be used by pregnant women | Fetal malformations |

Vasoconstrictor compensatory mechanisms includes: | 1) Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system 2) Stimulation of the renin-angiotensin system |
Cardiac Muscle Contraction (in order) | 1 Rapid depolarization occurs when fast‐opening Na + channels in the sarcolemma open and allow an influx of Na + ions into the cardiac muscle cell. The Na + channels rapidly close. 2 A plateau phase occurs during which Ca 2+ enters the cytosol of the muscle cell. Ca 2+ enters from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (endoplasmic reticulum) within the cell and also from outside the cell through slow‐opening Ca 2+channels in the sarcolemma. the Ca 2+ channels open, K + channels, which normally leak small amounts of K + out of the cell, become more impermeable to K + leakage. 3 Repolarization occurs as K + channels open and K + diffuses out of the cell. At the same time, Ca 2+ channels close. These events restore the membrane to its original polarization, except that the positions of K + and Na + on each side of the sarcolemma are reversed. 4 A refractory period follows, during which concentration of K + and Na + are actively restored to their appropriate sides of the sarcolemma by Na +/K + pumps. The muscle cell cannot contract again until Na + and K + are restored to their resting potential states. |
