Blood flow and tissue perfusion are NOT the same thing. An increase in blood flow does not always mean that there is a parallel increase in tissue perfusion. While blood flow is generally understood as an increase in the total amount of blood flowing into an anatomic structure or region, tissue perfusion is the amount of blood that actually flow through the capillaries of the vascular bed of that structure or region. The important thing to remember is that nutrients and oxygen are delivered to the cells via the capillaries.
Perfusion
PERFUSION is (1) to overspread with color, moisture, etc., (2) to diffuse through or over something, (3) to pass fluid through blood vessels or the lymphatic system to an organ or tissue.Hey, I had to look this up in a dictionary so that u wouldn't have to. Ya better love me for this. Can I help it that I'm so nerdy and smart? :)
Perfusion is the circulation of blood within an organ or tissue in adequate amounts to meet the cell's current needs.

Heterogeneous means not consistent all the way through, and perfusion is talking about blood supply (actually its talking about oxygen supply, but in reality we see blood supply, but they are roughly the same since the blood carries the oxygen). So a spleen with heterogeneous perfusion means that some parts are getting more blood (oxygen) than other parts.
Tissue perfusion is the amount of blood that the tissues receive during circulation. When a person has decreased tissue perfusion, the tissues are receiving inadequate blood supply.
Perfusion
In reference to physiology perfusion is the process of blood being delivered to a capillary bed in the biological tissue. Normal levels of perfusion can be tested by looking at skin color or skin temperature.
Flow is the amount of blood flowing through an organ, tissue or vessel at a given time. Perfusion is the flow per given volume or mass of tissue. Thus a large organ could have greater flow but less perfusion then a small one such as an ovary because the ovary receives much more blood per gram of tissue.
if the pt has a headache from htn, it's from not enough oxygen getting to the brain. ineffective tissue perfusion r/t whatever your related to factor is. if the pt has a headache from htn, it's from not enough oxygen getting to the brain. ineffective tissue perfusion r/t whatever your related to factor is.

Increases risk for alteration in tissue perfusion related to decreased cardiac output as evidenced by bradycardia. This is what i have.... I need 2 more! :)
