- Describe the cardiovascular response when a patient moves from supine to a standing position
- Classify the severity of haemorrhage
- Explain the body's compensatory responses to sudden loss of circulating volume
- Describe the haemodynamic effects of intravenous crystalloid infusion into a normovolaemic patient
- Explain how blood pressure and heart rate alter during a Valsalva manoeuvre
Prerequisites
Before commencing this session you should complete:
- Module 06/MCQ Tutorials/Physiology/Cardiovascular physiology Part 1 (001-1003)
These MCQ Tutorials are aimed at candidates preparing for the Primary FRCA examination.
MCQs written to Primary FRCA standard are used to provide a focused tutorial on important concepts and areas of the curriculum that candidates have difficulty with.
Not all areas tested in the examination are covered in these tutorials. For a comprehensive review please refer to the curriculum and the e-Learning sessions within Module 07b.
This session provides two revision tutorials on selected topics related to cardiovascular physiology.
Each tutorial within this session begins with some 'pre-tutorial MCQs' to test your existing knowledge. This is followed by the revision tutorial during which we will cover the knowledge required to answer these and other similar MCQs.
Each tutorial ends with some 'post-tutorial MCQs' to re-test your understanding of the topic.
This format is repeated for each of the topics covered in this session.
