Cardiovascular Blood Flow (Heart -> Arm and Back) (FULL) Flashcards
Where does blood flow begin? (Where does blood begin to enter the heart from?)
The Superior (or Inferior) Vena Cava
Once in the heart, where does blood pass through First?
The Right Atrium
#1
Where does the blood pass through Second? (After Right Atrium)
The Tricuspid Valve
#2
Where does blood pass through Third? (After Tricuspid Valve)
The Right Ventricle
#3
Where does blood pass through Fourth? (After Right Ventricle)
The Pulmonary Semilunar Valve
#4
Where does blood pass through Fifth? (After Pulmonary Semilunar Valve)
The Pulmonary Trunk
#5
Where does blood pass through Sixth? (After Pulmonary Trunk)
The Left Pulmonary Arteries (which are the only arteries that picks up deoxygenated blood!)
#6
Where does blood pass through Seventh? (After Left Pulmonary Artery)
The Lung Capillaries (Pulmonary Circuit)
#7
Where does blood pass through Eighth? (After Lung Capillaries)
The Left Pulmonary Veins
#8
Where does blood pass through Ninth? (After Left Pulmonary Veins)
The Left Atrium
#9
Where does blood pass through Tenth? (After Left Atrium)
The Bicuspid (or Mitral) Valve
#10
Where does blood pass through Eleventh? (After Bicuspid Valve)
The Left Ventricle
#11
Where does blood pass through Twelfth? (After Left Ventricle)
The Aortic Semilunar Valves
#12
Where does blood pass through Thirteenth? (After Aortic Semilunar Valves)
The Aorta (From here, blood travels through the arteries of the arm)
#13
Where does blood pass through Fourteenth? (After The Aorta)
Now in the arms! (Arties first)
The Brachiocephalic Artery
#14
Where does blood pass through Fifteenth? (After The Brachiocephalic Artery)
The Subclavian Artery
#15
Where does blood pass through Sixteenth? (After The Subclavian Artery)
The Axillary Artery
#16
Where does blood pass through Seventeenth? (After The Axillary Artery)
The Brachial Artery
#17
Where does blood pass through Eigteenth? (After The Brachial Artery)
The Radial (or) Ulnar Arteries
#18
Where does blood pass through Nineteenth? (After The Radial/Ulnar Arteries)
The Capillaries of The Forearm
#19
Where does blood pass through Twentieth? (After the Capillaries of The Forearm)
(Blood delivered, now back to the heart through the veins!)
The Radial (or) Ulnar Vein
#20 (If blood flowed through Radial A, its Radial V. and Vice Versa)
Where does blood travel through Twenty-first? (After the Radial (or) Ulnar Vein)
The Brachial Vein
#21

The Superior Vena Cava (Completing the cycle)
#25 (Be sure to say the SUPERIOR Vena Cava! This is the last step)
