Define the Hepatic portal systemA specialized part of the vascular circuit Picks up digested nutrients Delivers nutrients to liver for processing Contains two capillary beds
What 2 capillary beds are found in the Hepatic portal systemFirst capillary bed is in the stomach and intestines Second capillary bed is in the liver sinusoids
What occurs in the Hepatic portay system?1. Arterial blood comes down the Abdominal aorta 2. Rather than all the arterial blood going towards the legs it enters the hepatic portal system 3. Nutrients and toxins are absorbed in the first capillary bed 4. The arterial blood moves into the hepatic portal vein 5. The hepatic portal vein transfers the blood to the second bed 6. The 2nd bed breaks down and releases nutrients and toxins 7. Blood leaves the 2nd bed and enters the liver through the hepatic vein 8. Hepatic vein transfers the blood to the inferior vena cava where it is now carried as venous blood to the heart
Name this structureArterial blood runs down the aorta
Name this structure and its locationFirst bed in the stomach and intestine
Name this structureHepatic portal vein
Name this structure and its location2nd bed of hepatic portal system in the Liver sinusoids
Name this structureHepatic vein
Name this structureVenous blood in the inferior vena cava
Name this structureInferior Vena Cava
Name this structureHepatic Veins
Name this structureHepatic portal vein
Name this structureSmall intestine
What happens here?Nutrients is absorbed in the blood and heads towards the hepatic portal (system) and all that lol
What are portal systemic anastomosesAny of the venous connections between the portal circulation and the main systemic circulation. These veins provide alternative routes by which venous blood normally shunted through the liver can reach the inferior vena cave and then the heart.
Define anastomosesconnection between two blood vessels
What is caused by scarring and degeneration in the liver?Scarring and degeneration leads to blockage of liver sinusoids Raises blood pressure in hepatic portal system
What occurs when one's blood pressure is raised in the hepatic portal systemraised blood pressure in the hepatic portal system leads to hypertension Portal hypertension requires emergency anastomoses for portal blood
AneurysmA dilatation in the wall of an artery supplying blood to a specific area weakening of the Venus vasculature and supporting walls and produces something similar to a balloon
Deep Vein Thrombosisbecause venous blood is slower a blood cot can form blood cut can travel into the lungs and cause a pulmonary embolism
