Q

Right Ventricle

A

tricuspid
papillary muscle/chordae tendinae
pulmonary valve

17
Q

Left Atrium

A

Foramen ovale

4 opening of pulmonary veins

18
Q

Left Ventricle

A

Bicuspid valve
papillary muscle/chordae tendinae
aortic valve

19
Q

Great Vessicle

A 
SVC
IVC
Pulmonary Trunk
Right/left pulmonary veins
Aorta
20
Q

Superior Vena Cava

A

returns blood back to right atrium from areas superior to diaphragm (except from heart and lungs)

21
Q

Inferior Vena Cava

A

return blood back to the right atrium from areas inferior the diaphragum

22
Q

Pulmonary Trunk

A

Sends unoxygenated blood from right ventricle to lungs

23
Q

Right/Left pulmonary veins

A

returns oxygenated blood back to the left atrium from the lungs

24
Q

Aorta

A

sends blood to body from left venticle

25
Q

Brachiocephalic Trunk

A

gives rise to the CCA and right subclavian vein

26
Q

Tricuspid Valve

A

located between right atrium and right ventircle
chordae tendineae and papillary muscle anchor cusps of the valve

auscultate along left sternal border at 5th intercostal space

27
Q

Pulmonary Valve (right semilunar valve)

A

located between the right ventricle and pulmonary trunk

auscultate along left 2nd intercostal

28
Q

Bicuspid Valve

A

located between left atrium and left ventricle
chordae tendineae and papillary muscles anchor cusps of the valve

auscultate along apex (5th intercostal space)

29
Q

Aortic Valve (left semulunar valve)

A

located between left ventricle and the aorta

auscultate along right 2nd intercostal space

30
Q

Coronary Arteries

A

arise from the base of the aorta
right coronary artery (RCA)
left coronary artery (LCA)
Coronary Sinus

31
Q

RCA (right coronary artery)

A

supplies rigth atrium & ventricle
nodal branches supply SA and AV nodes
marginal branch of RCA is portion that supplies the right ventricle
posterior interventricular artery (right posterior descending)

32
Q

LCA (left coronary artery)

A

divides into anterior interventricular artery and crcumflex artery

anterior interventricular artery (LAD)- supplies R/L ventricles and majority of interventricular septum

Circumflex artery- supplies left atrium and ventricle, marginal branch is portion that supplies left ventricle

33
Q

Coronary Sinus

A

most of the cardiac veins drain into the coronary sinus

  • coronary drains directly into the roght atrium
  • great, middle, small cardiac veins and oblique vein of the left atrium all empty into coronary sinus
  • anterior cardiac veins and smallest cardiac veins empty directly into the right atrium
34
Q

Conducting System of Heart

A 
SA node
AV node
AV bundle (oh his)
L/R bundle branch
Purkinjie fibers
35
Q

Sympathetic Innervation of the Heart

A

Sympathetic
cervicle and thoracic sympathetic trunks, innervate atria and ventricles
fxn- increase HR and contractility

36
Q

Parasympathetic Innervation of the Heart

A

innervate atria

decrease HR and contractility
