The Circulatory System
![Page 2: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Interesting Facts
• The heart beat is strong enough to squirt blood 30 feet
• The longer a boy’s ring finger is, the less likely they are to have a heart attack (according to one study)
• The human heart beats ~35 million times per year
• The heart pumps ~1,000,000 barrels of blood in a lifetime
• Most heart attacks occur between 8-9 a.m.
![Page 3: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Interesting Facts• The blue whale has the largest heart – it weighs ~
one ton• The hummingbird has a heart that beats 1000
times per minute• Your entire volume of blood goes through your
entire body once every minute• Humans have ~60,000 miles of blood vessels in
their bodies (more than twice the circumference of the earth!)
• Your heart beats 100,000 times and pumps ~2000 gallons of blood every day
• Pig and baboon hearts have been transplanted into humans

Cardiovascular System
• Heart, vessels, blood• Function: transport
gases, nutrients, wastes, hormones
![Page 5: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Heart
• Size of a fist; less than a pound
• In thorax; flanked by lungs; rests on diaphram
• Top: base
• Bottom: apex
![Page 6: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Pericardium• Double-layered sac
covering the heart• Outer layer
anchors heart in chest
• Inner layer (epicardium) attached to heart wall
• Lubricating fluid in pericardial space (between layers) reduces friction
![Page 7: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Pericarditis
Decrease in fluid causes
layers to cling & rub
against each other
resulting in pain &
decreased efficiency of
heart
![Page 8: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pericardial Tamponade
• Bleeding into pericardial space after chest trauma
• Excess blood restricts expansion of heart during pumping
• Causes shock or death if not corrected
![Page 9: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Heart Wall
3 layers:
• Epicardium: outer wall joined with pericardium
• Myocardium: the actual cardiac muscle that contracts
• Endocardium: lines heart chambers & vessels
![Page 10: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Heart Chambers
Four chambers:
• 2 atria: top of heart – receive blood from veins
• 2 ventricles: bottom of heart – pump blood through arteries
![Page 11: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Heart Chambers
• Septum: divides left from right heart
• Valves: keep blood flowing in one direction
• Four valves: – 2 AV valves, – 2 semilunar valves
Heart sounds (Lupp-dupp) from valves closing
![Page 12: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Atrioventricular Valves
AV valves: between atria and ventricles• Bicuspid (mitral) valve: on the left• Tricuspid valve: on the right
• When valves are open blood drains from atria into ventricle
• When ventricle contract, valve flaps are forced shut, blocking blood from reentering atria
![Page 13: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Semilunar Valves
• Located in arteries leaving
ventricles
• Pulmonic valve: at base of
pulmonary artery
• Aortic valve: at base of aorta
• When ventricles contract, valves are forced open & let blood flow
• When ventricle relaxes, backflow of blood fills flaps of valve & forces them to shut
![Page 14: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
![Page 15: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Blood VesselsBlood Vessels• Arteries: carry blood away from the heart
• Veins: carry blood to the heart
• Capillaries: connect arteries to veins & exchange gases with tissues
![Page 17: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Arteries
• Carry blood at high pressure
• Very thick, stretchy walls that expand in size
• Most carry oxygenated blood (red)
• Damaged arteries spurt in time to heart beat
![Page 18: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Arteries
• Aorta: largest vessel (diameter of a garden hose) –receives blood from left ventricle
• Arteriole: smaller vessels connecting arteries to capillaries
![Page 19: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Veins• Carry blood at low pressure
• Have valves to prevent backflow of blood against gravity
• Most carry de-oxygenated blood (purple)
• Damaged veins ooze blood
![Page 20: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Veins• Vena Cava: dump all
blood from the body into the right atria– superior vena cava:
receives blood from upper body
– inferior vena cava: receives blood from lower body
• Venules: smaller vessels connecting veins to capillaries
![Page 21: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
![Page 22: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Capillaries
• Connect arteries and veins• Walls are one cell thick• Allow exchange of gases through thin walls
– Drop off oxygen delivered from heart by arteries
– Pick up CO2 and send it to the heart thru veins
![Page 23: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
How Blood Travels thru Vesselsheart artery arteriole capillary venule vein heart
![Page 24: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• Narrowing of vessel lumen due to plaque/fat formation on inside of walls
• Causes: diet high in fat, cholesterol, salt; inactive lifestyle; smoking
• Risks: high BP, enlarged heart, embolus blocking circulation; stroke
Atherosclerosis
![Page 25: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Coronary Artery
Disease
• When Atherosclerosis affects the arteries that supply the heart muscle
• Symptoms: short of breath after simple exertion, angina (chest pain)
• Risk: MI, cardiac arrest, death
![Page 26: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
How is CAD treated?
• Medication
• Angioplasty (balloon surgery) – balloon is inserted and inflated in blocked vessel to compress fatty mass against the artery wall
![Page 27: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
How is CAD Treated?• Stent – wire mesh inserted into the artery to expand its
lumen• Coronary Artery Bypass – arteries are removed from
leg and grafted into the heart to restore circulation
![Page 28: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Vessel Disorders
Varicose Veins:
twisted, dilated veins resulting from pooling of
blood due to long periods of
standing, obesity, or inactivity
![Page 29: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Vessel Disorders
Thrombophlebitis:
inflammation of a vessel due to clot formation & poor circulation. Clot can become an embolus if freed.
![Page 30: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Aneurysm
• Weaking in the wall of a vessel, causing it to balloon outwards.
• Rupture of the site causes– Stroke (if in the brain)– Death (in a large artery – aorta).
![Page 31: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
![Page 32: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Cardiac Circulation
• Coronary arteries exit the aorta & supply oxygen/blood to heart muscle (myocardium)
• Coronary veins pick up & return deoxygenated blood from myocardium
![Page 33: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Defects in Coronary
Circulation
• Angina Pectoris: impaired circulation to myocardium causes oxygen deprivation & pain
• Myocardial infarction: “heart attack” – blockage of circulation to section of myocardium causes the muscle to infarct (die)
![Page 34: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Pulmonary Circulation• Right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood
through pulmonary artery to the lungs
• The blood picks up O2 from the lungs and dumps CO2 into the lungs
• Oxygenated blood is returned to the left atrium thru the pulmonary vein
![Page 35: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Systemic Circulation
• Oxygenated blood is pumped from left ventricle thru aorta to the body
• Blood dumps oxygen into tissues and picks up CO2
• Deoxygenated blood travels from body to vena cava to the right atrium
![Page 38: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

The Circulation
![Page 43: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Play the Game
Number the parts 1 – 17 (just write the correct order on a piece of paper). Pass your
paper to a classmate when you finish. We will grade them as a class.
![Page 46: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Congestive Heart Failure• Heart is ‘worn out’ from hypertension,
multiple MI, atherosclerosis, or age
• Heart pumps too weakly to meet tissue needs
• If one side is weaker than the other, blood will back up in system
![Page 47: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Congestive Heart Failure• Left ventricle is failing:
– Pulmonary congestion– Pulmonary edema
(blood in lungs) causes suffocation
• Right ventricle is failing:– Peripheral congestion– Edema in distal body
parts (ankles, feet)
![Page 48: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Pulmonary Edema
Pulmonary edema (A); normal lung
(B)
![Page 49: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Peripheral Edema
Swelling of feet and ankles due to CHF
![Page 50: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
![Page 51: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Conduction System of the Heart
Heart is under two types of control:
• Autonomic Nervous system– Sympathetic: speeds up contractions– Parasympathetic: the “brakes” that slows
down contractions
• Intrinsic Conduction System– Also called “nodal system”– Heart determines its own rate of contractions
![Page 52: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Intrinsic Conduction System
• Nodes are heart tissue that
stimulate heart muscle to
depolarize (contract)
• Depolarization moves from base to apex
• Different areas of the heart have different nodes, each with a different rate
• Node rate gets slower as it moves downwards
• Faster nodes will override slower nodes
![Page 53: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
![Page 54: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Nodes (you need to know these)
![Page 55: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
3 Stages:• SA node fires, atria
contract (depolarize)• Impulse travels to AV
node, then travels thru bundle of His, bundle branches, & Purkinje fibers – ventricles contract (depolarize)
• Contraction of ventricles has ‘wringing’ action, pushing blood upward and out through large arteries
• Heart muscle repolarizes
![Page 56: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Parts of the Conduction
System
SA node:
• “The Heart’s Pacemaker”
• In atria
• Normally sets the pace of 60 – 70
• SA can increase rate when stimulated by drugs, fever, or sympathetic NS (exercise, stress, emotion)
![Page 57: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
AV Node:• Between atria & ventricles• Special tissues transmit signal from SA to AV
node• Intrinsic rate: 40 - 60
![Page 58: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Parts of the Conduction System
Bundle of His: • Transmits impulse
to ventricles • Rate: 30 – 40
beats/minBundle Branches:• Within ventricular
muscles• Rate: 20 – 30
beats/minPurkinje fibers:• Terminal end of
branches
![Page 59: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
What if Damage Occurs?
• If SA node is damaged or its signal is blocked, the AV node takes over setting the pace (40-60/min)
• If AV node is next damaged, the bundles set the rate (20 – 40/min)
![Page 60: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
What is a Pacemaker?
If heart is unable to generate
impulse, or pace is too slow,
mechanical pacemaker is
surgically implanted to
provide artificial impulses
![Page 61: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)
• Electrical impulses in heart are measured with ECG
• Electrical activity is translated into waves
![Page 62: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)• P Wave: atria depolarize
• QRS complex: ventricles depolarize
• T wave: repolarization
![Page 63: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Abnormalities in ECG
• Heart Monitor hooked up with pads on chest
• Abnormalities in ECG used to diagnose heart damage
• Diagnostic signs: changes in shape of wave, distance between waves, lack of waves…
![Page 64: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Irregular Heart Rhythms
• Tachycardia: heart is beating too fast
• Bradycardia: heart is beating too slow
• Heart Block: no connection between atria & ventricles – ventricles beat at their own rate
• Ventricular Fibrillation: heart is ‘shivering’ – no contractions or pulse (cardiac arrest)
• Asystole: dead heart – no electrical activity
![Page 65: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Comparing Rates• Normal Sinus Rhythm
• Sinus Bradycardia
• Sinus Tachycardia

• Elevated ST segment (sign of a MI)
• Ventricular Tachycardia
• Heart Block
![Page 67: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
• PVC (premature ventricular fibrillation)
• Ventricular Fibrillation
• Asystole

Cardiac Cycle
Cardiac Cycle: The events within one heartbeat. Three main stages:
• Mid-to-late diastole: SL valves are closed, AV open; atria contract; blood is forced into ventricles
• Ventricular systole: ventricular pressure forces AV closed; SL forced open; blood rushes out of ventricles; atria relax & refill
• Early diastole: SL shut; AV open; ventricles relax and refill passively
![Page 70: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Heart Sounds
• Cardiac cycle heard with a stethoscope
• Two sounds: “lub dup” (pause) “lub dup” (pause) …..– Lub = closing of AV valves (ventricular systole)– Dup = Closing of semilunar valves (between
ventricular systole & diastole)
• Murmurs: abnormal heart sounds that usually indicate valve problems

Valve Disorders
• Leaky Valves: caused by incompetent or deformed valves that force the heart to re-pump blood because of backflow
![Page 72: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Stenosis Valves are stiff and do not open completely.
Heart has to pump harder
Murmur: stenosis

Mitral Valve Prolapse• The most common valve disorder
(5-10% of people)
• Mitral valve opens (prolapses) into atrium when shutting & allows blood backflow

Cardiac Output
• Cardiac Output: the amount of blood pumped by each side of the heart per minute
• Cardiac output = heart rate X stroke volume
• Stroke volume = the amount of blood pumped with each contraction
![Page 75: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
What is the cardiac output if….
HR = 75 bpm; SV = 70 ml/beat?
This is the normal cardiac output for a resting adult.
How is the output affected with exercise?
Do you think it increases or decreases?
![Page 76: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
What affects Stroke Volume?(you don’t have to write this down)
Increase in Stroke volume:
• Increased venous blood return– exercise (muscles force blood into heart)– Slow hr (more time to fill ventricles)
Decrease in stroke volume
• Decreased venous return– Hemorrhage (less blood volume)– Tachycardia (not enough time to fill)
![Page 77: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
What affects Heart Rate?(you don’t have to write this either)
Increase:• Decline in SV (heart
compensates by hr)• Babies and kids• Females• During exercise• Sympathetic NS
Decrease:• Parasympathetic NS• Getting older• Males• Being fit (heart is
more efficient)• Cold temperatures

Taken to assess overall health status
• Arterial pulse
• Blood Pressure
• Respiratory Rate
• Temperature
![Page 79: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Arterial Pulse• Alternating expansion and recoil of arteries with each heart beat
• Measured in beats per minute
• Normal resting pulse: 60 – 100 bpm
• Taken at pulse points: place where pulse is easily palpated (felt)
![Page 80: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Pulse Points Can also be
used as pressure
points to stop bleeding

Blood Pressure
• Pressure of the blood against artery walls• Measured as systolic/diastolic (ex. 120/80)
– Systolic: pressure at peak of contraction– Diastolic: pressure during ventricular relaxation
• Can be taken by:– Auscultation (listening for pulse)– Palpation (feeling for pulse)
• Normal: 100 + age / 60-90
![Page 82: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
What Determines the
BP?
• Cardiac Output (blood pumped per min)
• Peripheral Resistance – friction inside vessel that hampers flow of blood– Usually results from narrowing of arteries
![Page 83: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
What affects BPIncreases BP:• Atherosclerosis• Thick blood• Drugs/nicotine• Obesity
Decreases BP:• Shock/blood loss• MI• Drugs• Physical fitness
![Page 84: Circulatory system powerpoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061603/5566271ed8b42a61238b503d/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Problems with BP• Hypotension (low BP):
– Systolic < 90mm/Hg– Cause: MI; warning sign of shock; athletes
• Hypertension (high BP)– Systolic >140; Diastolic >90– Heart is forced to work hard for extended time– Vessels damaged due to higher pressure– Causes: obesity, diet, exercise, smoking, genes– Risks: heart attack, stroke
