21
Q

Lub

A

Is caused by the closing of the AB valves.

22
Q

Dub

A

Occurres when the semilunar valves close at the end of systole

23
Q

Infarction

A

Causing death to tissue typically from thrombus or embolus

24
Q

Valvalumar stenosis

A

Valve becomes stiff and becomes endocarditis causing it to contract more then normal

25
Q

Pericarditis

A

Viral but is caused by streptococcus or mycobacterium

26
Q

Disastol

A

Heart fills up

27
Q

Systolic

A

Blood through the rest of the body

28
Q

Intrinsic conduction system

A

Base to apex

Power connected by intercellular disks
Down and up

29
Q

SA cells

A

Build up positive charge and start depolerization when they reach a thresh hold that triggers them to release ca2 and k makes muscles contract

30
Q

Depolerization

A

Action potiental

31
Q

Reset

A

The time it takes to reset the threshold sets how frequent your heart beats.

32
Q

SA cells

A

Positive charge Na

Depolerization triggers salts to rease ca and k
Potassium out resets

33
Q

P wave

A

Depolerization of a trail contractle fibers

34
Q

PQ interval

A

Atrium firing and ventricles going off.

35
Q

PQ spike

A

AV node depolerization because a lot of muscle firing different voltage.

36
Q

T wave

A

Resetting and relaxing

37
Q

T ventricles

A

Repolarize potassium coming back in

38
Q

Atrial cells

A

Best about 60 times per minute

39
Q

Ventricular cells

A

More slowly ( 20-40 min)

40
Q

Purkinje fibers

A

Spread within the muscle of the ventricle walls.

41
Q

Heart block

A

Any damage to the AV node can partially or totally release the ventricles from the control of AV node.

42
Q

SA node damage

A

Slower heart rate

43
Q

Finrilation

A

A rapid uncoordinated shuddering of the heart

44
Q

Average heart beat

A

75 times per minute

45
Q

Mid to late distole

A

Passively into and through the atria into the ventricles
Semi lunar valves are closed
AV valves are open

Contract and force blood

46
Q

Ventricle systole

A

Semi lunar forced open and blood rushes through

AV valves close

Altria relaxed and chambers fill with blood

47
Q

Early diastole

A

Ventricles relax

Semilunar snap shut

48
Q

Factors of the heart

A

Neural controls
Hormones and ions
Physical factors

49
Q

Epinephrine

A

Mimics the effects of the sympathetic nerves.

50
Q

Heart rate - heat

A

Heat increases heart rate by boosting the metabolic rate of heart cells

51
Q

Congestive heart failure

A

Pumping efficiency of heart is depressed

52
Q

Pulmonary edema

A

Fluids leak as pressures build into the lung tissue
