Cardiac APEX Flashcards
K vs Ca TP/ RMP
K-RMP
Ca- TP
Na K ATPase in the heart
3 Na out (Na was in from depolarization)
2 K in (K was out from repolarization)
Always on
How does Hyper K effect the cells?
Doesnt allow repolarization, which traps Na channel in their closed state
O2 consumption at rest of the heart
8-10 ml O2/100g/in
Higher than all others
Do all muscles have gap junctions?
No only heart
RMP of cardiac nueron cells (not myoctye/ ventricular AP)
RMP -70
TP -55
Peak +30
Ventricular action potential stages main conductance
0- na in
1- cl in, k out
2- ca out, k out
3- k out
4- rmp- NA K ATPase 3na out, 2k in, but also K is still leaking out
RMP/ TP/ peak of myoctye/ ventricular ap
-90
-70
+10
Absolute vs relative refractory period on ventricular AP
Absolute- 0-1st half of phase 3,qrs to middle of t wave
Relative- can fire with high stimulus, second half of phase 3 and t wave
Phases of SA node AP
403
4- sodium (via funny channels) and calcium (via t type tubules) enter- spontaneous depolarization
0-depolarization, ca in (L type)
3- repolarization, k out
Real name for sa node
Keith flack node
What nerve innervates the SA and AV node?
R vagus SA node
L vagus AV node
How does norepi effect electrolytes
B1 receptor lets ca in na in
What receptor does ACH bind to in the heart?
M2 increases K conductance (out)
DO2 vs VO2 in adult
1L/min
250ml/min or 3.5ml/kg/min
CaO2 vs Cvo2 range
20ml/o2/dl
15ml/dl
DO2 formula
CAO2 x 10 x CO
CaO2- (1.34 x hgb x sao2) + (pao2 x .003)
Map formula
[(CO x SVR) / 80] + CVP
Ohm vs poiselle
Ohm- flow= pressure gradient/ resistance
Poiselle is an extension of ohms law that incorporates diameter, viscosity, and tube length
Poiselles- (Pi x R^4 x AV pressure gradient) / (8 x n x L) where n= viscosity, l= length
Reynold number
<2000- laminar
2000-4000- transitional
>4000- turbulent
What can turbulent flow cause?
Bruit (carotid stenosis) or Murmur (valvular heart disease)
What can reduce myocardial compliance
Aging
Hypertrophy
Diastolic dysfunction
Fibrosis
Things that increase contractility
Calcium
SNS/ catecholamines
Dig
PDE inhibitors
Things that decrease contractility
Hypoxia
Hyperarbia
Acidosis
Kyperkalemia (arrests heart)
Hypocalcemia
Prop
BB
CCB
Volatile anesthetics (besides N2O which increases and des if started rapidly, and this decrease in CO is usually masked by vasodilation)
Ischemia
Intercalated discs
Gap junctions and desmosomes that hold cells together in skeletal muscle
How B1 increases contractility
B1 activates adenylate cyclase
AC converts to ATP to cAMP
cAMP increases PKA
PKA will;
1. activate more L type Ca channels
2. Stimulate ryr2 receptors to release more Ca
3. Stimulate SERCA2 to increase ca uptake, which will allow for a sooner ca release (both positive inotropy and lusitrophy)
Law of laplace
wall stress=pressure x radius / (ventricular thickness)
L vs R dominant
R- RCA feeds PDA (80%)
L- CXA feeds PDA (10-20%)
Which branches feed the nodes, bundle, and branches
RCA SA
RCA AV
LCA Bundle of his
LCA BB
Cardiac veins
Great cardiac vein (LAD)
Anterior Cardiac vein (RCA)
Middle cardiac vein (PDA)
Thesbian veins
RL shunt
Drain in all four chambers
TEE best view for LV ischemia
Short axis- midpapillary muscle level
Extraction ratio of oxygen in the heart
70%
Cant extract more, needs to increase blood flow
What percent of CO goes to the heart?
5%
3 things that make up autoregulation
Local metabolism- most important, adenosine vasodilates, NO, PG, CO2, flushes out products
Myogenic response- vessels innate ability to resist change in size
ANS- less important
Alpha 1 and histamine 1 effects on blood flow in heart
Constrict!
Beta 2 and H2 and Muscarinic blood flow in heart
Vasodilate!
PLC pathway and activators
Constriction
Phenyl, levo, epi, AT2
IP3
increased Ca influx
Where to listen for aortic stenosis
r sternal border 2 ics
S1 valves
mitral and tricuspid
Marks onset of systole
S2 valves
Aortic and pulmonary
Marks onset of diastole
S3 and S4 causes
s3- HF, during middle 1/3 of diastole
s4- atrial kick
Where to listen for pulmonic
L sternal 2 ICS
Where to listen for tricuspid
L sternal 4 ICS
