  2. Pulmonary Circulation By Dr. Abdel Aziz M. Hussein Lecturer of Medical Physiology Member of American Society of Physiology Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  3. Pulmonary Circulation Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  4. Pulmonary Circulation • The pulmonary circulation is concerned with passage of blood from the Rt ventricle, through the lungs and then to the lt atrium. • The pulmonary circulation time is about 7 seconds at rest. • It receives all the COP from the right ventricle. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  5. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  6. Pulmonary Vessels a) Pulmonary arteries: The lungs are supplied with blood from 2 sources: • i) Pulmonary artery: • It transmits venous blood from the Rt ventricle to the lungs. • It branches finally to capillaries around the alveoli→ exchange of gases ( ) alveolar air and pulmonary blood. • ii)Bronchial arteries: • They arise from the aorta and supply mainly the bronchi and bronchioles. • There are many anastomosis ( ) the bronchial and pulmonary arteries. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  9. Pulmonary Vessels b) Pulmonary veins: The blood leaves the lungs by 2 ways; • i) 4 pulmonary veins: • They transmit oxygenated blood from the lung to the left atrium. • ii) Bronchial veins: • They transmit venous blood from the bronchi and bronchioles to the pulmonary veins, and finally to the left atrium.

  13. Functions of Pulmonary Circulation • Transport of bloodfrom the right side of the heart to the left side→ low resistance pathway for blood transport through the lungs. • 2) Arterializationsof venous blood during its passage through the lungs→ removal of CO2 and receiving O2 Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  15. Pulmonary Blood Pressure and Flow Value: Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  16. Pulmonary Blood Pressure and Flow Value: Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  17. Regulation of Pulmonary BP and BF Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  18. Autoregulation Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  19. Autoregulation of Pulmonary BF ◊ Def. • It is the automatic control of local pulmonary blood flow distribution. • ◊ Mechanism: • When the alveolar O2 concentration becomes very low, the adjacent blood vessels slowly constrict within 3 to 10 minutes. • It is opposite to what happens in systemic vessels that respond to low PO2 by VD. • It is believed that hypoxia leads to release of some VC substances from the lung tissues that promote VC. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  20. Autoregulation of Pulmonary BF VC VD ↓ PO2 ↑ PO2 Significance: Shift of blood to areas of the lungs that are better aerated or ventilated. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  21. Mechanical Factors Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  22. 1) Cardiac Output (CO) • Pulm. BF equals COP, so factors affecting COP, affect the pulmonary BF. • ↑ed COP (as in exercise) →↑es the pulmonary BF with slight ↑ in pulmonary BP. • COP should be ↑ed 4 times before ↑ pulmonary BP because: a)Pulmonary blood vesselsdilate passively b)The outflow of bloodfrom pulmonary veins ↑es due to ↑ed HR (by Bainbridge reflex) • Significance: • It ↑es pulmonary gas exchange with COP (in exercise) without over work of the heart. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  23. 2) Pulmonary Capacity or Compliance • Pulmonary circulation can change its capacity to buffer excess changes in pulmonary BP because the pulmonary vessels are highly distensible a) Removal of one lung→ all COP of the Rt ventricle is pumped to one lung →↑ in pulmonary capacity→ prevents much ↑ in pulmonary BP. b) Haemorrhage→ pulmonary vessels constrict → ↓ pulmonary capacity → prevent much drop in pulmonary BP Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  24. 2) Pulmonary Capacity or Compliance c) Left side heart failure→ stagnation and congestion of blood in lungs occur→↑ pulmonary capacity → prevent excessive ↑ in pulmonary BP to certain limit. • When pulmonary capacity exceeds this limit → ↑ pulmonary BP. d) Posture (gravity)→ capacity is greater in recumbent position than in sitting or standing due to ↑ed VR caused by absence of the effect of gravity. e) Respiration •During inspiration→ pulmonary capacity ↑ es (due to VD) and pulmonary BP ↓es. •During expiration→ the capacity ↓es (due to VC) and pulmonary BP ↑es. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  25. 3) Pulmonary Peripheral Resistance ◊ Value: • It equals l/6 systemic PR •An ↑ in pulmonary PR (e.g. in mitral stenosis, emphysema, fibrosis, and embolism) produces much ↑ in pulmonary PB→ Rt ventricle dilates to ↑ the power of contraction (Starling's law). • If the ↑ in pulmonary BP persists → Rt ventricular hypertrophy and failure. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  26. 3) Pulmonary Peripheral Resistance •Pulmonary peripheral resistance is ↑ed in: 1.Mitral stenosis due to back pressure in lungs and reflex VC by hypoxia.  Pulmonary PR and BP. 2.Emphysema: bad ventilation produces generalized hypoxia and VC of pulmonary blood vessels  Pulmonary PR and BP. 3.Pulmonary fibrosis and embolism: blocking of pulmonary blood vessels and reflex VC from hypoxia  Pulmonary PR and BP. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  27. Nervous Factors Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  28. Nervous Factors a) Vagal stimulation→ VD of pulmonary blood vessels and ↓es pulmonary BP. b) Sympathetic stimulation→ VC of pulmonary blood vessels and ↑es pulmonary BP. However, the nervous effect is weak on pulmonary BP. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  29. Chemical Factors Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  30. Chemical Factors a) Ach and certain prostaglandins dilate the pulmonary arterioles. b) Catecholamines, angiotensin II constrict the pulmonary arterioles. c) Serotonin and histamine constrict the pulmonary venules. d) Nitric oxide (NO) dilate the pulmonary arterioles → its deficiency in pulmonary vessels leads to pulmonary hypertension. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  31. Characteristics of Pulmonary Circulation • It is distensible low pressure circulation, so the pressure in it is low (1/6 of ABP) • Pulmonary PR is 1/6 systemic PR because: • a) Pulmonary artery → is thin, 1/3 thickness of the aortic wall. • b) Small pulmonary arteries and arterioles → short with large diameter and with little smooth ms fibers→ accommodate large amount of blood. • c) Pulmonary capillaries→ are wide, have many anastomoses around alveoli, highly permeable and have high exchangeable surface area. • d) Pulmonary veins → are short, distensible and act as blood reservoir. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  32. Characteristics of Pulmonary Circulation 2. There is very little fluid formation in the alveoli, but the lungs are richly supplied by lymphatics to keep the alveoli dry. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  33. Pulmonary Oedema Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  34. Pulmonary Oedema • ◊ Def, • It is a pathological accumulation of fluid in the lung alveoli or in the pulmonary interstitial spaces. • It is dangerous (even fatal) because it prevents gas exchange in the lungs. Formation and drainage interstitial fluid in lungs Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  35. Pulmonary Oedema Formation and drainage interstitial fluid in lungs • Thus the net mean filtration pressure = 29-28 = 1 mmHg→ slight continual flow of fluid from the pulmonary capillaries into the interstitial spaces. • This fluid is drained to the circulation through the pulmonary lymphatic system. ◊ Causes: a) Marked ↑ of pulmonary capillary B.P., as in patients with left sided heart failure due to lung congestion. b) ↑ed permeability of pulmonary capillary membrane caused by infectious diseases or poisons as some war gases. Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine

  36. Pulmonary Oedema ◊ Pulmonary edema safety factors: a) Low capillary pulmonary pressure (7 mmHg) (filtering force). b) High osmotic pressure of plasma proteins(28 mmHg) (reabsorbing force), so any filtered fluid will be immediately reabsorbed. - Safety factor against pulmonary edema is 28 -7 =21 mmHg Dr abdelaziz Husssein, Mansoura Faculty of Medicine
