Cardiovascular Phys - Red Book Flashcards
Cardiac Mechanism is a 2 step pump. 1st step is what? 2nd step?
1st - atrial contraction
2nd - ventricular contraction
What is diastolic phase - atria fills _______ ventricle.
before
Ventricles are ____% full before atrial contraction.
80
What valves close and open during systolic phase?
Close - AV valves (tricuspid and mitral)
Open - Semilunar valves (aortic and pulmonary)
First heart sound? Stage? Event?
LUB
Systole
Closure of AV valves
Second heart sound? Stage? Event?
DUB
Diastole
Closure of semilunar valves
What is the electrophysiology conduction system?
SA node –> Intermodal Pathways –> AV node –> Bundle of His –> Purkinjie fibers –> Ventricles
ECG - P wave
Atrial depolarization
ECG - QRS wave
Ventricular depolarization
ECG - T wave
Ventricular repolarization
ECG - U wave
Papillary muscle repolarization
Hemodynamics - Poisulle’s Law - Flow is proportional to what?
Driving pressure
Radios of tube (to 4th power)
Hemodynamics - Poisulle’s Law - Flow is INVERSELY proportional to what?
tube length
viscosity
Flow = what?
Pressure/resistance
Effect of Vagal or ACh on heart?
Slows heart
Decreases contraction strength
Decreases velocity of conduction
Effect of Sympathetic or NE on heart?
Increases HR & force
Opens calcium channels
Hyperkalemia effect on heart?
Decreases HR
Hypokalemia effect on heart?
Increases HR (initially) Decreases HR (eventually)
Hyper/Hypokalemia is what?
Abnormally high or low potassium in blood
