ANAT LEC FINALS: CARDIO RECIT Flashcards
Pointed and wide portion of the heart
APEX AND BASE
Heart
Hollow muscular organ that pumps blood
Right atrioventricular valve
TRICUSPID VALVE
Left atrioventricular valve
BICUSPID / MITRAL VALVE
Chambers of heart
RA, RV, LA, LV
Major vessels connected to cardiac chambers
Vena cava, Pulmonary Artery, Pulmonary Vein, Aorta
AV valves
TRICUSPID and BICUSPID
Semilunar valves
PULMONARY and AORTIC
Layers of heart
EPICARDIUM - Outer; MYOCARDIUM- Middle and Thickest; ENDOCARDIUM- Inner
Fibroconnective tissue covering of the heart
PERICARDIUM
Branches of aorta
THORACIC AND ABDOMINAL
Types of blood vessels and descriptions
Artery and Arterioles: Transport oxygenated blood away from heart; Vein and Venules: Transport deoxygenated blood toward heart; Capillaries: Site for exchange of oxygen, nutrients and waste
Morphology of blood cells and descriptions
RBC / Erythrocytes: Biconcave disc that carry H2O; WBC/ Leukocytes: Soldiers of body, fight off infection; Platelet / Thrombocytes: For clotting mechanism, form platelet plug
T cells and B cells
T CELLS: From thymus; B CELL: From Bone marrow and Memory Cells
Antibodies and major classes
IgG: Long term Immunity; IgA: Mucosal Immunity; IgM: Initial Immune response; IgE: Allergy and parasite defense; IgD: B-cell Activation
Mast cells
Multifunctional immune cells essential for host defense, tissue homeostasis, and inflammatory responses.
Types of macrophages
MOBILE: From circulating monocyte; EPITHELIOID: Less phagocytic; RESIDENT macrophages
Types of resident macrophages
Microglia (CNS); Kupffer Cells (LIVER); Alveolar Macrophages (LUNGS); Peritoneal Macrophages (ABDOMEN); Splenic Macrophages (SPLEEN); Bone Marrow; Skin
Epithelioid macrophages and multinucleated giant cells
Epithelioid macrophages: Less phagocytic but can do fusion; Forms MGC under influence of Interleukin IV and Interferon N; Types: TOUTON, FOREIGN BODIES, LANGERHANS
Platelets and megakaryocytes
PLATELETS are remnants of bone marrow MEGAKARYOCYTES
Developmental stages of red blood cells
ERYTHROPOIESIS: 1. PROERYTHROBLAST; 2. BASOPHILIC ERYTHROBLAST; 3. POLYCHROMATOPHILIC ERYTHROBLAST; 4. ORTHOCHROMATOPHILIC ERYTHROBLAST; 5. RETICULOCYTE
Plasma vs serum
Plasma: Contains clotting factors; Serum: No clotting factor
Regenerative anemia
Bone marrow responds when there is blood loss
Clotting factors
F1: Fibrinogen; F2: Prothrombin; F3: Tissue Thromboplastin; F4: Calcium; F5: Proaccelerin; F7: Proconvertin; F8: Antihemophilic Factor; F9: Plasma Thromboplastin Component; F10: Stuart-Prower Factor; F11: Plasma Thromboplastin Antecedent; F12: Hageman Factor; F13: Fibrin-Stabilizing Factor
Branches of iliac, carotid arteries, abdominal aorta etc
ILIAC: Common Iliac - External and Internal; CAROTID: Common Carotid Artery - External and Internal; ABDOMINAL AORTA: Phrenic, Coeliac, Cranial Mesenteric, Renal, Gonadal, Caudal Mesenteric Artery
Auricles and coronary sinuses
Auricles: Ear-like appendages connected to the cardiac atria; Coronary Sinus: Tiny openings on the wall of right atrium
Fibrous and serous pericardium
Fibrous: First Layer; Serous: Surrounds the fibrous Layer
