heart Flashcards
pump blood throughout the body
heart
heart location
mediastinum and pericardial cavity
2 layers of heart
fibrous pericardium and serous pericardium
heart wall: outermost layer
epicardium
heart wall: middle layer
myocardium
heart wall: innermost layer
endocardium
heart chamber: receives the blood from the brain
superior atria
heart chamber:pump blood away
inferior ventricles
separates the atrium
interatrial septum
separates ventricle
interventricular septum
grooves on the heart surface: separate the atria to ventricle
coronary sulcus
grooves on the heart surface: from coronary sulcus to Anterior
anterior intervetricular sulcus
grooves on the heart surface: from coronary sulcus to posterior surface of the heart
posterior interventricular sulcus
veins that carry blood to the heart
superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, coronary sinus, four pulmonary veins
arteries that carry blood away from the heart
pulmonary trunk, aorta, pulmonary arteries,
heart valves: prevents backflow into the atria
antrioventricular veins
heart valves: coneshaped
papillary muscle
heart valves: attached to connective tissue strings
chordae tendineae
heart valves: prevents backflow associated into ventricle
semilunar valve
heart valves: surround the valve and give solid support
cardiac skeleton
coronary circulation: supply blood to the wall of the heart
left coronary artery(anterior interventricular artery, circum flex artery)
right coronary artery( posterior interventricular artery, right marginal artery)
drain blood from the cardiac muscle
great cardiac vein, middle cardiac vein, small cardiac vein
conduction system of the heart made up of specialize cardiac muscle cells
sa node, av node, av bundle, right and left bundle branches, purkinje fibers
heart sounds:lower pitch first
lubb
heart sounds: second
dupp
develop to listen the sound of the lungs and heart
stethoscope
abnormal heart sound
murmurs
narrowing of valve
stenosis
pumping process
cardiac cycle
contraction of atria
atrial systole
contraction of ventricles
ventricular systole
relaxation of atria
atrial diastole
relaxation of ventricle
ventricular diastole
volume of blood pumper per minute
cardiac output
pump per ventricle each time heart contracts
stroke volume
number of time the heart contracts each time
heart rate
