Q

What is the pericardium? What’s outer to it? what can it be divided into?

A

it’s the fibrous sac that surrounds the heart. The fibrous pericardium is outer. Serous pericardium divided into visceral layer (touches heart) and parietal layer. Remember that the two layers are the same thing, it just wraps around.

A

muscle lengths (like lowering heavy book)

94
Q

how is smooth muscle different than skeletal muscle, molecularly?

A

the z line is goes diagonally and is anchored to plasma membrane. no troponin or tropomyosin. It uses calmodulin.

A

60%

98
Q

what percent of blood is in arteries and arterioles?

A

only 15%

99
Q

what do chordae tendineae do?

A

AKA heart strings, then prevent prolapse of valves by keeping valves clossed (like the hinges of a door)

100
Q

What brings the electrical signal to the bundle of His?

A

The AV node

101
Q

when do the heart sounds happen?

A

the 1st sound happens at the end of diastole when the mitral valve closes (right AV side), the 2nd happens at the end of systole when the aortic valve closes

102
Q

Adding a little venous pressure does what to ventricular diastole?

A

it makes the ventricle fill with more blood

103
Q

that is the RMP of cardiac muscle?

A

-90mv

104
Q

what happens during the plateau phase for cardiac muscle?

A

K+ channels close, Ca++ opens slowly and binds to troponin causing a contraction

105
Q

how long of a duration is a cardiac action potential?

A

about 300 msec, which is really long compared to neuronal APs

106
Q

what is responsible for the plateau of cardiac aption poentials?

A

the reduced K+ fighting with increased Ca++

107
Q

during what part of the cardiac AP is the heart tension highest?

A

during the plateau/ repolarization

108
Q

what regulates parasympathetic and sympathetic innervation of heart?

A

CN 9 glossopharyngeal transmits information from baroreceptors in carotis sinus. Sympathetic innevartion and parasympathetic (Vagas (X) ) infulence the SA node and AV node.

109
Q

What is a brury?

A

a cholesterol clot that can be heard with a stethoscope. This is from the turbidity of excessive cholesterol

110
Q

what does sympathetic innervation do to the heart to increase output? what happens molecularly?

Q

what is a P wave for ECG?

A

it’s atrial depolarization

112
Q

what is a P-Q interval?

A

it’s duration between atrial to ventricular excitation
