cardio Flashcards
Embryo of heart
- what
- day fuse
- day beat
- whats superior first
- rotation
- atrial septal dev
- closure of foramen ovale
- bulbus cordis
- left horn sinous venousus
- right horn
- primitive pulm vein
- primitive atrium
- primitive ventricle
- right ant and common cardinal v
- truncus arteriousus
- endocardial tubes
- 20
- 21
- ventricles superior to atria
- ventricles curve down and elongate, atria posterior and then move caudally
- septum primum grow, then splits from endo cardial cushion with ostium primum, then septum primum split 1/3 down with ostium secundum and lower septum primum grows back down to endocardil cushion, then septum secundum grows from top of atria downward forming foramen ovale
- when born the pressure in the left atrium pushes septrum primum against septum secundum closing the gap, and it eventually fuses
- left and right ventricle outflow tracts
- coronary sinus
- right atrium smooth
- left atrium smooth
- left and right atria trabeculated
- left and right ventricle trabeculated
- SVC
- pulm trunk and ascending aorta
cardiac vasc
- RCA
- PDA
- right marginal
- LCA
- LAD
- left circumflex
- RCA 15% of muscle; supply SA and AV node, contains marginal and PDA
- upper 2/3 of post wall of both ventricles and posterior IV septum
- lateral portion of RA and RV,
- lat wall of left ventricle, branches into LAD, LCA
- ant wall of both ventricles, ant IV septumlower 1/3 of post ventricles
- left atrium and become left marginal which supplies apex
AVO2
- equation
- more extracted
- normal lowest
- exercise lowest
- post prandial
- O2 into tissue - O2 leaving tissue
- greater AVO2
- kidney
- ## skeletal muscle
Symp innervation
- when
- what
- how (3)
- stress
- NE
- increase permeability to Na and Ca making depolarization easier; SA node discharge rate increased, contractile force increased
Reflex tachy on standing
- what happens
- stand up -> blood pools to feet -> less blood returning to heart -> less end diastolic vol ->
Reflex tachy on standing
- what happens
- stand up -> blood pools to feet -> less blood returning to heart -> less end diastolic vol -> less stretch to baroreceptors -> baroreceptors slow output -> decrease PS response -> increase in HR
Pulm Capillary Wedge pressure
- what is it for
- reasoning
- why
- indirect estimate of left atrial pressure
- pressure in left atrium = pressure in pulm v = pressure in pulm a
- left sided pathology to heart will increase left atrial pressure
Electrical Impulse
- route of conduction
SA node (5m/s)-> AV node (.05 m/s)-> bundle of HIS (2 m/s) -> purkinje fibers (4 m/s)
Cardiac Cycle
- when does aortic valve open
- what happens when ventricle starts to relax
- when does aortic valve close
- iso vol relax
- what is the increase in pressure after the atria have contracted
- when pressure in ventricle is more than pressure in aorta
- blood is still being sent out of aorta
- when pressure in ventricle falls below pressure in aorta
- both aortic and mitral closed after ventricle has contracted
- its from the mitral and tricuspid valves buckling as pressure increases in ventricles
Action potential for SA and AV node
- 4
- 0
- 3
- funny channel allows for Na to come in slowly, -60 to -50, from -50 to -40 Ca channels open (t-type), depolarization increase quickly, at -40 more Ca channel open (l-type)
- at -30 funny and T Ca channels close and lots more L channels open
- ## K channels open and L channels close
Ventricular Depolarization
- 4
- 0
- 1
- 2
- 3
- resting membrane potential, caused by K leak channels
- fast Na channels open, steep depolarization
- inital repolarization because K channels open
- plateau because Ca channels open
- K channels open to repolarize
ECG
- p
- qrs
- t
- u
- QT
- ST
- RR
- height
- width
- atrial depolarization, .12-.20
- ventricular depolarization, .08-.10
- ventricular repolarization
- repolarization of purkinje fibers
- 1 ventricular cycle, 0.4-0.43
- time between end of ventricular depolarization and start of repolarization; if elevated or depressed means ischemia
- 0.6-1.0
- voltage; increased = hypetrophy
- duration; increased = further impulse had to travel for depolarization
Congenital QT syndrome
- mutation to
- increases risk of
- gene coding to Na or k channel
- developing torsades -> can deteriorate into vtach or v fib
Long QT syndrome
- amount
- manage
- avoid
- 13 diff types
- Beta blockers, ICD, cut symp innervation to heart
- high intensity sports (anything that would cause tachy) and QT prolonging drugs
Jervell and Lange Nielsen
- what is it
- mutation
- diff from romano ward
- LQT syndrome + sensorineural deafness
- AR
- AD, LQT syndrome
HTN
- AA
- caucasian
- elderly
- CO * TPR
- caused by stroke vol (too much Na retention) give thiazide
- caucasian its heart rate -> Beta blocker
- cause by total peripheral resistance -> vasodilator, ACE i or ARB
Changes of Aging Heart
- left ventricle
- ventricular septum
- myocytes
- accumulate
- decreases in dimension
- sigmoid shaped; gives wall motion abnormalities w/ tachy
- atrophy with interstital fibrosis
- lipofuscin pigment
Lipofuscin
- composed of
- caused by
- lipid polymers and protein complexed phospholipids
- free radical injuryand lipid peroxidation
- yellow/brown, granular
Shock
- what is it
- pulse
- BP
- cap refill
- types
- state of hypoperfusion of organs
- low, or non
- low or non
- none
- hypovol, ardiogenic, septic, neurogenic
Cardiogenic shcok
- occurs
- decrease
- increase
- caused by
- sxs
- management
- when heart doesn’t pump enough forward
- CO
- TPR -> try to vasconstrict to get little amount of blood to periphery
- left or right sided heart failure
- crackles (LHF), increased JVP, hepatomegaly, pedal edema (RHF)
- O2, diuretics, DA, ACEi, digoxin
Hypovolemic
- problem
- central venous pressure
- CO
- compensation
- managment
- fluid not returning to heart
- decreased, bc no blood
- decreased, bc no vol
- vasoconstrict and tachy
- fluids, stop source of bleeding
Septic
- caused by
- TPR
- sxs
- management
- gram - because endotoxin will release NO and cause massive vasodilation
- decreased bc to vasodilation
- warm and well perfused, elevated WBC, fever
- vasoconstrictors, fluids, antibiotics
Neurogenic shock
- caused by
- sxs
- management
injury to spine -> nerves shocked -> lose symp control -> unopposed PS
- vasodilated, brady cardia, low CO, warm and well perfused
- vasoconstrictors
anaphylatics
- caused by
- sxs
- manage
- release of histamine
- vasodilation, increased vasc perm, bronchosontriction
- epi
Cardiogenic shock meds
- dopamine: what is it, affects, kidney,
- dobutamine: what is it, affects, BP, lungs, heart, indication
- catecholamine, alpha/ beta/ dopa agonist, renal blood flow improves at low dose; shock and renal failure
- synthetic cate; only beta 1/2 and alpha; neutral to BP; reduce cap wedge pressure; increase inotropy, cardiac failure and ischemic LVF
Hemo dynamic of shock
- hypo
- cardiogenic
- septic
- neurogenic
- inc TPR, inc HR, dec CO
- inc TPR, dec HR, dec CO

- dec TPR, inc HR, inc CO
Venous return curve
- mean systemic pressure
- increase pressure
- where wenous return meets the x axis -> right atrial pressure when there is no venous return
- decrease venous return to heart -> harder to get blood in
AV fistula
- what is it
- sequelae
- what happens to resistance
- symp response
- CO
- RAAS
- take a and connect to v
- dilate vein and make it thick so you can use it for dialysis
- decrease resistance -> increase steady state for CO and venous return
- vaso constrict -> bring back down to normal
- increases because of increase in EDV
- since there is not as much blood in artery, RAAS activates -> increase resistance bc of vasoconstriction AND aldosterone causes reabsorption of water -> increases venous return
HTN
- chronic causes
- what is released
- defined by
- managment
- left ventricular diastolic dysfunction -> causes hypertrophy of left ventricle -> lose compliance of LV -> pressure increases -> vol overload -> ventricle starts to dilate
- ANP and BNP released to decrease vol in heart, vasodilate
- BP over 130/80
- thiazide, ACEi, ARB, CCB
ANP
- why is it released
- kidneys
- adrenals
- blood vessels
- heart overstretched
- vasodilate afferent
- restrict aldosterone secretion
- relaxes SM in arteries and veins and increases permeability
Isolated atrial amyloidosis
- what is it
- where else
- deposition of abnormally folded ANP derived proteins
- thryoid, pancreatic islet cells, pit, cardiac atria, cerebrum and cerebral blood vessels
