Helt enligt vår plan. Att lyfta konståkningen i Stockholm med EM, Synkro-VM och nu också VM bygger ett starkare förbund och lyfter konståkningen i hela Sverige. Under året införde vi Elitlicens som sedan följdes av Föreningslicens. Både viktiga och goda verktyg för att stödja verksamheten i våra föreningar. Efter utvärderingar ser vi att förbättringar måste göras och det arbetet pågår just nu. Säsongen 2019 - 2020 präglas också av att Förbundet har gått till botten med anmälningar om missförhållanden i ett antal föreningar. Styrelsen tog beslut om att genomföra en omfattande extern utredning. Resultatet visar tyvärr att det finns åkare som inte mår bra. Något som självklart är helt oacceptabelt.

  • 3 Blood Pressure and Its Measurement
    Chapter 3 / Blood Pressure and Its Measurement 49 3 Blood Pressure and Its Measurement CONTENTS PHYSIOLOGY OF BLOOD FLOW AND BLOOD PRESSURE PHYSIOLOGY OF BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT POINTS TO REMEMBER WHEN MEASURING BLOOD PRESSURE FACTORS THAT AFFECT BLOOD PRESSURE READINGS INTERPRETATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS USE OF BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT IN SPECIAL CLINICAL SITUATIONS REFERENCES PHYSIOLOGY OF BLOOD FLOW AND BLOOD PRESSURE The purpose of the arterial system is to provide oxygenated blood to the tissues by converting the intermittent cardiac output into a continuous capillary flow and this is achieved by the structural organization of the arterial system. The blood flow in a vessel is basically determined by two factors: 1. The pressure difference between the two ends of the vessel, which provides the driving force for the flow 2. The impediment to flow, which is essentially the vascular resistance This can be expressed by the following formula: 6P Q = R where Q is the flow, 6P is the pressure difference, and R is the resistance. The pressure head in the aorta and the large arteries is provided by the pumping action of the left ventricle ejecting blood with each systole. The arterial pressure peaks in systole and tends to fall during diastole. Briefly, the peak systolic pressure achieved is determined by (see Chapter 2): 1. The momentum of ejection (the stroke volume, the velocity of ejection, which in turn are related to the contractility of the ventricle and the afterload) 2. The distensibility of the proximal arterial system 3. The timing and amplitude of the reflected pressure wave When the arterial system is stiff, as in the elderly, for the same amount of stroke output, the peak systolic pressure achieved will be higher.
