LV End Diastolic Volume (mL)
Use the information in this paragraph and the image above to answer the question
below. This figure shows the relationship between EDV and SV. Curve 2 is
representatíve of a normal individual sitting on a bike, resting. There are two other
curves illustrated and there are multiple points landmarked with a "o" and the letters
"A to F". You can assume that the only changes in relevant variables are described in
each question. If a variable is not mentioned you can assume that it has not changed.
The starting point is "A". Select an appropriate pointif there was an increase in cardiac
inotropy.

Stroke Volume (mL)
Give propofol 10 mg/kg/minute. The infusion is mixed propofol 250 mg in 250 mL DsW. The patient weighs 168 pounds. What rate on the infusion pump will deliver the correct dose mL/hr?
All four tubes in the figure have the same driving pressure gradient. Based on this and their dimensions you know tube ________ has the greatest flow and tube _____has the least flow per unit time.

The severity of this condition depends on the precise location of the occlusion, which downstream tissues are involved, and how large an area of tissue dies. Use Figure 4.9 as a reference and list the flow of blood through both circuits in order, beginnng with the right atrium (don't forget to include the heart valves). 1.
