Q

Valve in the left atrium that sends blood to the left ventricle

A

Left A-V valve or mitral valve

21
Q

The valve located in the left ventricle that sends blood to the rest of the body

A

Aortic valve

22
Q

Which has thinner walls the atria or ventricles

23
Q

Which ventricle has a thicker wall

24
Q

Each valve is attached to the ______ in the ventricular walls by fibrous cords called _____ _______

A

Papillary muscles

Chordae tendinae

25
When the valves evert back into the atria
Valve prolapse
26
When the ventricles contract the valves are forced closed. What keeps the valves from going the wrong way
The chordae tendinae
27
Outer Middle Inner layer of heart
Outer: pericardium Middle: myocardium Inner: endocardium
28
Medical term for a heart attack
Myocardial infarction
29
Diastole | Systole
Rest | Contract
30
First heart sound (Lub)
A-V valves close
31
Second heart sound, (dub)
Aortic and pulmonary valves shut
32
Both heart sounds occur during
Ventricular systole
33
A third heart sound may be heard, this is
The ventricles filling
34
How heart murmurs are ranked
I-V 1 being hard to hear 5 being easy
35
Things that can cause heart murmurs
Valve problems Structural abnormalities Thickening of vessel walls Anemia
36
Valves not closing properly (valve insufficiency) causes
Blood leaks back causing noise
37
Valve insufficiency in seen old dogs
Mitral insufficiency | Lub-shh-dub
38
Valve damage from a bacterial infection is seen in | Shh-shh-shh
Cows w hardware disease
39
Valve insufficiency is seen in people with
Strep throat or rheumatic fever
40
The connection between atrium in fetuses that closes after birth
Patent foramen ovale
41
When the foramen ovale doesn’t seal after birth
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)
42
Thickening of blood vessels
Stenosis
43
What PDA sounds like
Constant noise, may feel thrill from blood turbulence
44
Effects of stenosis on heart
Valve can’t open completely, increased noise due to blood having increased pressure going through a narrower opening
45
What anemia is
Blood thin with fewer RBC’s | Blood less viscous
46
When the heart valves don’t close properly, the heart pumps ___x as much blood
2
47
Effect of PDA on animal
Unoxygenated blood circulating, animal is weak
48
Effect of anemia
Animal becomes weak
