Exam # 2 Flashcards
What is the heart rate if operating on nodal rhthym
40-50 BPM
If there is damage to the SA node
Operates off the AV node
How do you control blood flow through a capillary bed to provide nutrients
Using Pre-capillary sphincters
what kind of anastomosis is most common
Venous anastomosis
What are the three ways that vasomotion are controled
local control
neural control
hormonal control
What are three inputs of blood from the systemic circuit?
Superior vena cava
Inferior vena cava
Coronary sinus
Collects blood from tissues above the heart
Superior vena cava
Collects blood from tissues below the heart
Inferior vena cava
Collects blood from the heart returned from cardiac veins
Coronary Sinus
_____% of blood pumped by the heart is pumped to the heart
5
What are the names of the vessels that send blood to the heart muscle tissue?
Right and left coronary arteries
and the Great Cardiac vein
What is the function of platelets
Blood clotting
The stopping of bleeding is called
Hemostasis
Name the three phases of Hemostasis and what happens in each phase
-Vascular Phase
Injury then vasocontriction
-Platelet phase
Platelet adhesion then plug formation
-Coagulation phase
Blood clot
The systemic circuit…..
supplies oxygenated blood to the whole body and returns it to the heart
The Pulmonary circuit
carries blood to lungs for gas exchange and back to heart
What are the three layers of the heart superficial to deep
Epicardium
Myocardium
Endocardium
How do AV valves function?
Ensure one way flow of blood
Control flow between atria and ventricles
AV valves are connected to
Papillary muscles by tendinous chords
Coronary sinus opens to….
the Right Atrium
Volume pumped by left ventricle is called
Cardiac Output
The equation for CO is
CO= HRxSV
