1 Department of medical physiology 2 nd week Semester: winter Study program: Dental medicine Lecture: RNDr. Soňa Grešová, PhD. Department of medical physiology Faculty of Medicine PJŠU

2 Department of medical physiology 2 nd week 1. Blood functions and general blood atributes 2. Blood plasma 3. Red blood cells 4. White blood cells

3 1. Blood functions and general blood atributes Transport of: Gases, nutrients, waste products Processed molecules Regulatory molecules Regulation of ph and osmosis Maintenance of body temperature Protection against foreign substances (specific and unspecific) Clot formation

4 1. Blood functions and general blood atributes Contains cellular and liquid components A specialized connective tissue Blood cells formed elements Plasma fluid portion and fibrinogen Blood volume Males: 5 6 liters Females: 4 5 liters Measurement- Evans blue, deuterium oxide (hypovolemia, hypervolemia) The ph of blood is about (acidemia, alkalosis) Specific gravity is g/cm3

5 1. Blood functions and general blood atributes Blood viscosity Blood viscosity is a measure of the resistance of blood to flow. It can be described as the thickness and stickiness of blood blood viscosity is 4 to 5.3 times higher then water viscosity plasma viscosity is times higher than the viscosity of water viscosity depends the size, number, shape elements, the composition of the plasma, temperature Viscosity decrease - eg. Anemia The increase in viscosity - polycythemia, increased concentration of plasma proteins

6 1. Blood functions and general blood atributes Hematocrit Value Hematocrit ratio - % of red blood cell volume to total blood volume. Varies depending on number and size of red blood cells, plasma volume, portion or the circulatory system sampled from. Hematocrit is slightly greater in venous blood samples. Normal Hematocrit: Men = 44 +/- 5% Women = 39 +/- 4% Newborns = 20% higher due to polycythemia

7 1. Blood functions and general blood atributes Erythrocyte Sedimentation The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), also called a sedimentation rate or Westergren ESR, is the rate at which red blood cells sediment in a period of one hour. Fahraeus Westergren method Sedimentation rate depends on: Gravity, and resistance of plasma Number of erythrocytes Sedimentation slowed by high number(polycythemia) Faster sedimentation in anemia Size and shape of erythrocytes Large erythrocytes have higher rate Alterations in plasma composition Fibrinogen and globulin = rise in sed. Rate (pregnancy) Infections and intoxications can increase rate Plasma lipids; cholesterol increases, lecithin decreases rate Blood ph Acidosis slows rate, Alkalosis increases rate Tissue damage Values Men = 4-6mm first hour, 8mm second hour Women = 8-10mm first hour, 16mm second hour Newborn = 0.5mm/hour

8 1. Blood functions and general blood atributes Composition of Blood Blood: Plasma (55%) Formed elements (45%) Plasma Proteins (7%) albumins (35 50 g/l), globulins (cca 25 g/l), fibrinogen (1,5 3,5 g/l) water (91%) other solutes (2%) Ions Nutrients: glucose (3,05 6,4 mmol/l), bilirubin (< 22,2 mol/l), lipids (5,7 8,2 mmol/l), Cholesterol (2,8 5,2 mmol/l) free fatty acids (0,15 0,71 mmol/l) Waste products - urea, uric acid, bilirubin, creatinine, amonia Gases Regulatory substances hormones, antibodies, enzymes

White blood cells Basophila leave capillaries and release granules containing heparin, histamine and serotonin, at sites of inflammation Intensify inflammatory reaction Involved in hypersensitivity reactions (allergies) Eosinophils leave capillaries and enter tissue fluid Release histaminase (reduce inflamation), phagocytize antigen-antibody complexes and effective against certain parasitic worms
