26
Q

What sound happens when the AV valves close?

A

Heart sound 1, “Lub”

27
Q

What are the 4 heart cells that generate electrical signal?

A

-SA Node
- AV Node
- AV Bundle
- Purkinje Fibers

28
Q

How is the electrical signal spread?

A

Via Gap Junctions

29
Q

What is rate of intrinsic HR?

A

100 BPM

30
Q

The pacemaker of the heart?

A

SA Node

31
Q

What side does the SA stimulate?

A

Right Atrium & Left Atrium

32
Q

What is the job of the AV node?

A

Regulator, delays to allow ventricles not to close or fill too quickly.

Allows the Right side to contract before the left.

33
Q

What is the purpose of the AV Bundle?

A

Relays signal to the RV and LV

34
Q

What are the 4 parts of the electrical activity of the heart?

A
  1. SA node- pacemaker initiates contraction
  2. AV node is the regulator it allows the right side to contract before the left side.
  3. AV bundle (bundle of him) travels signal down interventricular septum, divides into right and left bundle toward apex
  4. Purkinje fibers send signal INSIDE RV and LV, stimulating contraction
35
Q

What is ejection fraction?

A

% of blood that is leaving per stroke

36
Q

What is stroke volume?

A

How much blood is leaving the heart

37
Q

What is Diastole?

A

Fill up, relax

38
Q

What is Systole?

A

Push out, contract.

39
Q

SBP

A

Systolic Blood Pressure: highest pressure in artery

40
Q

DBP

A

Lowest pressure in artery

41
Q

How much blood to veins contain at rest?

A

2/3 of blood volume

42
Q

What area within the vasculature holds the most blood volume?

A

Veins- 64%

43
Q

When does “LUB” occur?

A

Ventricular Systole- or Ventricular Contraction; when the AV valves close at the start. (V pressure rises)

44
Q

The “Dub” is?

A

The Aortic and Pulmonary valves closing; pressure drops.

45
Q

What extrinsic control of heart activity occurs with parasympathetic nervous system?

A

Vagus nerve carries impulses to SA, AV nodes, releases acetylcholine
Decreases HR below intrinsic HR

46
Q

What extrinsic control of heart activity occurs with sympathetic nervous system?

A

Carries impulse to SA, AV nodes, releases Norepinephrine, depolarizes, increases HR above intrinsic

47
Q

What is the maximal HR?

A

250 bpm

48
Q

What is bradycardia?

A

HR under 60 bpm in an UNTRAINED person.

49
Q

What is Tachycardia and examples of how it occurs?

A

Fast HR, naturally (stress), exercise, caffeine

50
Q

What is a PVC?

A

Premature Ventricular Contraction, extra beat

51
Q

What is torsional contraction?

A

During systole the heart twists gradually like a spring, filling up the left side as much as possible.

52
Q

When does abrupt untwisting occur that allows atrial filling?

A

Diastole

53
Q

What is hemodynamics?

A

Blood Flow

54
Q

What are 4 examples of resistance that opposes flow?

A
  • Vasodilation
  • Vasoconstriction
  • Blood clots
  • Plaques
55
Q

Easiest way to change flow?

A

Change R

56
Q

What are 3 things that blood does?

A
  • Transportation
  • Temperature regulation
  • Acid-base- (pH) balance
57
Q

What is whole blood composed of?

A

Plasma and Formed Elements

58
Q

Will men or women carry more blood in volume?

A

Men (5-6L)

59
Q

What percentage is Plasma of blood volume?

A

55-60%

60
Q

How much can plasma decrease with dehydration?

A

-10%

61
Q

How much can plasma increase with training and heat acclimation?

A

10%

62
Q

What 4 parts is plasma broken down into?

A

90% Water
7% Protein
3% Nutrients
Ions

63
Q

What are the 3 formed elements?

A

-RBC
-WBC
-Platelets

64
Q

What is hematocrit?

A

Total percentage of volume composed of formed elements.
