Cardiovascular Flashcards
What does the tricuspid valve do
Controls blood flow between right atrium and right ventricle
Type of lymphocyte which develop into cells that produce anti-bodies
B
A localized abnormal dilation of a blood vessel, usually an artery
Aneurysm
A1C value for pre-diabetic
5.7-5.9
A double walled connected tissue sac that surrounds the outside of the heart and great vessels
Pericardium
The wall between the right and the left ventricle
Ventricular septum
The wall between the atria
Atrial septum
Where does blood go after the right ventricle
Pulmonary valve
The amount of blood pumped from the left or right ventricle per minute
Cardiac output
Angina that occurs a predictable level of exertion, exercise or stress and responds to rest or nitroglycerin
Stable angina
What two structures is the aortic valve between
The left ventricle and aorta
Normal ranges for stroke volume
60-80mL
The veins that carry oxygenated blood from the right and left lungs to the left atrium
Pulmonary veins
The volume of air in the lungs after of maximal expiration; the sum of the lung volumes
Total Lung Capacity
The vein that returns venous blood from the lower body and viscera to the right atrium
Inferior vena cava
What side is the tricuspid valve on
Right
What is the normal pacemaker of the heart
SA node
The volume of blood ejected by each contraction of the left ventricle
Stroke volume
Volume of change that occurs between maximal inspiration of maximal expiration
Vital Capacity
The endothelial tissue that lines the interior of the heart chambers and valves
Endocardium
The Thick contractile middle layer of muscle cells that forms the bulk of the heart wall
Myocardium
What does the mitral valve do
It controls blood flow between the left atrium and left ventricle
The vein that returns venous blood from the head, neck, and arms to the right atrium
Superior vena cava
What two structures is the pulmonary valve between
The right ventricle and pulmonary artery
