A
- oxygenated blood
- enter via pulmonary veins

4
Q
right side of heart
A
- oxygen-poor blood

5
Q
Pericardium Function:
A
double walled (triple layered space around the heart)
- protects and anchors the heart
- prevents overfilling of the heart with blood
- allows for a relatively friction-free environment`

Q
Epicardium
A
visceral pericardium
- serous membrane covering heart

Endocardium
A
- smooth inner lining

23
Q

24
Q
Semilunar valves
A
located at exit of ventricles
25
Right semilunar valves
pulmonary semilunar valve
26
Left semilunar valves
aortic semilunar valve
27
Blood flow
| Ventricles contract
- AV valves close as blood attempts to back up into the atria
- pressure rises inside of the ventricles
- semilunar valves open and blood flows into great vessels
28
Blood flow
| Ventricles relax
- Pressure drops inside the ventricles
- semilunar valves close as blood attempts to back up into the ventricles from the vessels
- AV valves open
- blood flows from atria to ventricles
29
Blood flow starting with the right Atrium
Right atrium -> AV valve-> right ventricle -> pulmonary semilunar valve-> pulmonary trunk -> pulmonary arteries -> lungs -> pulmonary veins -> left atrium -> AV valve -> left ventricle -> aortic semilunar valve -> aorta -> systemic circulation.
30
cardiocytes
Striated, short thick, branched cells
| -repairs of damage of cardiac muscle is almost entirely by fibrosis (scarring)
31
Intercalated dies contain
- desmoses
| - Gap junctions
32
Metabolism of cardiac muscle depends almost exclusively on
aerobic respiration to make ATP
33
cardiac muscle are Rich in
myglobin and glycogen
| huge mitochondria
34
The conduction system
| what cells
Autorhythmic cells
35
Autorhythmic cells
composes internal pacemaker and nerve-lie conduction pathways through myocardium
36
Autorhythmic cells initiates...
and distributes action potential through the heart
37
Autorhythmmic cells lead to
depolarization and contraction of the rest of myocardium
38
Sinoatrial nodes
pacemaker
| typically determines heart rate
39
Atrioventricular node
electrical gateway to the ventricles
40
Atrioventricular bundles (bundle of his)
Bundle forks into right and left bundle branches
41
purkinje fibers
nerve like processes spread throughout ventricular myocardium
-cardiocytes then pass signal from cell to cell throughout gap junctions
42
nerve supply to the heart
| - sympathetic nerves
increase heart rate and contraction strength
43
nerve supply to the heart
| - parasympathetic nerves
slow hear rate
44
systole
contraction
45
diastole
relaxation
46
sinus rhythm
normal heartbeat triggered by the SA node
47
Ectopic focus
any region firing other than the SA node
| -may set hear rate if SA nod damaged
48
Nodal rhythm
if SA node is damaged, heart rate is set by the AV node 40-50 bpm
49
order of conduction system of the heart
Sinoatrial node -> Atrioventricular node -> Atrioventricular bundle ( bundle of his) -> bundle branches -> purkinje fibers
50
which structure in the conduction system is considered the pacemaker
sinoatrial node
51
in which structure of the conduction system does the impulse slow down
A-V node
52
why do you think the impulse needs to slow down here?
the atria and ventricle would contract at the same time and blood would not flow effectively
53
P-wave
atrial depolarization
54
atrial depolarization is normally obscured by the...
QRS complext
55
which wave is ventricular depolarization
QRS
56
Which wave is ventricular depolarization?
T-wave
57
Between which two waves will you have atrial contraction
P-Q
58
Between which two waves will you have ventricular contraction
S-T
59
Signals in the AV node slow down to
the delays allows the ventricles time to fill.
60
cardiocyte action potential has how many phases
three
61
what are the three phases of cardiocyte action potential
depolarization plateau and repolarization
62
Depolarization phase
very brief
- stimulates opens voltage-regulated Na+ gates ( sodium rushes in)
- sodium gates close quickly
63
Plateau phase
lets about 200 to 250 ms sustains contractions for expulsion of blood from heart
- voltage gated slow calcium channels open admitting calcium which triggers opening of calcium channels on sarcoplasmic reticulum
- calcium binds to troponin triggering contractions
64
depolarization phase
-calcium channels close, potassium channels open , rapid diffusion of potassium out of cell returns it to resting potential
65
resting membrane potential of skeletal muscle is (stable or unstable)
stable
66
what leads to action potential of skeletal muscle
requires motor neuron to release ACh and the binding of ACh causes depolarization of motor end plate which lead to action potential of skeletal muscle
67
resting membrane potential of cardiac muscles is ( stable or unstable)
unstable
68
Cardiac muscles have ( fast or slow ) depolarization to threshold
slow
69
cardiac muscles, at threshold, have ( fast or slow) depolarization
fast
70
SA node fires and atria depolarize at which wave
p-wave
71
Ventricular depolarization
QRS complex
72
corresponds to plateau in myocardial action potential
ST segment
73
ventricular depolarization and relaxation which wave
t-wave
74
when the ventricles are in diastole, are the A-V valves open or closed?
open
75
when the ventricles are in systole, are the A-V valves open or closed/
closed
76
When the ventricles are in diastole, are the semilunar valves open or closed?
closed
77
when the ventricles are in systole, are the semilunar valves open or closed?
open
78
phase of the cardiac cycles
1. ) ventricular filling
2. ) isovolumetric contraction
3. ) ventricular ejection
4. ) Isovolumetic relaxation
79
Ventricular filling
is during diastole
- ventricles relax and expand, pressure decreases
- blood flows from atria to ventricles
- atria contract to finish filling ventricles
- AV valves are open; semilunar valves are closed
80
isovolumetric contraction
ventricular systole
atria in diastole
ventricles are completely closed off (all valves closed_
81
ventricles ejection
ventricular systole
atria in diastole
AV valves close seminar valves forced open
82
isovolumetic relaxation
both atria and ventricles are relaxed; all valves closed
83
left ventricular failure
blood backs up into the legs causing pulmonary edema
| --- shortness of breath or sense of suffocation
84
right ventricular failure
blood backs up in the vena cava using systemic or generalized edema
85
proprioceptors
stretch receptors in muscle and joint
****are sensors that provide information about joint angle, muscle length, and muscle tension, which is integrated to give information about the position of the limb in space.
86
if the proprioceptors are activated, what does HR do
heart rate goes up
87
Baroreceptors
A baroreceptor is a specialized nerve ending that allows your brain to sense blood flow and blood pressure in the major blood vessels of your circulatory system.
88
if baroreceptor sense blood pressure increases what does HR do
wants to slow heart rate down
89
chemoreceptors
sensory extensions of the peripheral nervous system into blood vessels where they detect changes in chemical concentrations.
90
if chemoreceptors sense hypercapnia what does HR do?
increase heart rate
91
if chemoreceptors sense hypoxia
hypoxia slows hear rate down; slow heart rat tell brain to speed up heart rate.
92
preload
how much blood fits in the ventricles at its max
93
contractility
how hard the ventricles will contracts
94
Positive inotropic agents
increase contractility
| hypercalcemia catecholamines glucagon digitalis
95
negative inotropic agents
reduce contractility
- hypocalcemia hyperkalemia
acidosis
drugs such as calcium channel blockers
96
Afterload
sum of all forces opposing ejection of blood from ventricles
****** higher the pressure is in the aorta then the ventricle have to work 2 times harder to push the valves open .
97
what increases afterload
hypertension increases after load and opposes ventricular ejection
**** working harder but pumping out less blood so heart beats fast to accommodate for the little blood pumping
