Heart Flashcards
pericardium
unyielding dense CT, mesothelium, produce serous fluid to decrease friction, innervated by PHRENIC
cardiac tamponade
acute pericardial effusion, Becks triad
becks triad
JVD, muffled heart sounds, decreased arterial pressure
surfaces of heart
auricles, inter ventricular sulcus, pericardial reflection, ligament arteriousum, coronary sulcus
what is coronary sulcus
where most of the veins empty, then empties into RA
coronary sulci
grooves/fissures for vessels to avoid pressure/friction
thesbian veins
in myocardium, empty direct into chambers
RCA brances
posterior descending, R marginal
LCA branches
l circumflex, anterior inter ventricular (decending)
CAD
cholesterol deposits damage coronary arteries, thick tunica intima
body compensation fro CAD
collateral growth, reverse flow (thespian), endow bypass via vasa vsorum or CABG
RA
gets venous blood, pectinate muscle, lumbus/fossa ovalis
fossa ovalis
patent in 20-25%, tricuspid valve
RV
conus arteries, pap muscle, chord tend, trabecular carnea, semilunar pulm valve, moderator band
coronary artery perfuson
during diastole, relaxed myocardium,
