, • The principles of blood flow are called haemodynamics
• Normal circulatory function: Uninterrupted flow of blood from the
ventricle to the farthest capillaries in the body; return of blood f
systemic capillaries to the right ventricle; & from right ventricle to
pulmonary capillaries and back to the left atrium
Three essential requirements to maintain normal blood flow
perfusion of tissues:
Normal anatomic features
Normal physiologic controls for blood flow
Normal biochemical composition of the blood
