at birth what are puched together

A

septum primum and septum secundum

27
Q

Atrial Septal Defect (ASD)

excessive resorption of Septum Primum

A

excessive resorption of Septum Primum

  • Too much of apoptosis during formation of foramen secundum in the septum primum
  • Too large of a hole for the septum secundum to cover
28
Q

Atrial Septal Defect (ASD)

Absence of the septum secundum

A

septum secundum fails to form, leaving a large hole in the atrial septum

29
Q

Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD)

A

20% Membranous 80% Muscular

Interventricular septal defects are the most common type of heart defect

30
Q

Cardiac muscle histology

A
  • Intercalated disks
  • made from mesoderm
  • rely on T tubules
  • involuntary
  • one central nuclei
  • branching
  • straiations
31
Q

Intercalated DIsks

A

junctions between cardiac muscle cells

  • points of anchorage for myofibrils (actin)
  • prevent pulling apart of cells durring contraction
  • there are gap, lose and tight junctions
32
Q

gap junctions allow

A

for the rapid spread of contractile stimuli

33
Q

How is the electrical stimulus propagated?

A

Gap Junctions

34
Q

conducting system

A

SA node (Pacemaker)

AV node (delays impulse)

AV bundle

Purkinje fibers

35
Q

Pacemaker cells

A

spontaneous action potential induced by pacemaker potential

action potential spread to nonpacemaker cells

36
Q

wall of the heart

A

epicardium (outter)

myocardium

endocardium

37
Q

purkinje fibers

A

rich in gap junctions

bellow the endocardium

no t tubules or intercalted disks

38
Q

Epicardium

A

Outer layer

  • Visceral pericardium
  • Simple squamous epithelium
  • Fibrocollagenous tissue with abundant elastic fibers, adipose, nerves, coronary vessels
39
Q

Myocardium

A

Middle layer

  • Cardiac myocytes
  • Collagenous connective tissue skeleton containing adipose, blood vessels, & nerves
40
Q

Endocardium

A

Inner lining of atria and ventricles

  • Layer of fibroelastic tissue containing Purkinje fibers, blood vessels, & nerves
  • Layer of simple squamous epithelium (endothelium)
41
Q

Myocardial cells are

A

high energy cells with high demand for oxygen

42
Q

atherosclerousis

A
  • blockage of blood flow in cornary arteries
  • damage of basment membrane
  • heart pains (anagina of effort)
  • cells are not regenerative
  • collagen replaces dead heart cells
  • Hyperatrophy of remaing heart cells
  • Result: complete thrombosis –> heart attack
43
Q

Myocardial infaraction

A

heart attack

44
Q

cardiac cycle

A

period from start of one heartbeat and the begining of the next

Systole: contraction

Diastole: relaxation

45
Q

cardiac output

A

CO=SV x HR

46
Q

Cardiac output is

factors:

A

the amount of blood cleared by the heart in one minute

Affected by

  • Blood volume refexes (baroreceptors,…)
  • Autonomic nervous system
  • HIgher centers (rage, nervous, anger)
47
Q

purkinje system

A

  • Modified, specialized cardiac muscle cells
  • Organized into nodes & fibers
  • Transmit the contractile impulse

A

Tunica intima

Tunica media

Tunica adventitia (outer)

49
Q

Tunica intimia

Endothelia cells

A

  • transport by diffusion and pinocytosis
55
Q

Fenestrated Capillaries

A
  • Perforated endothelium

  • Found in small intestine, kidney glomerulus, and endocrine glands
56

Discontinous (sinusoidal) capillary

A
  • Greatest permeability
  • Perforated endothelium and BM
  • Liver, lymphoid, endocrine, hematopoietic
57
Q

Venous System

A
  • Always carries blood to the heart
  • Categorized by size
  • Lower pressure and thinner walls
  • Larger veins have the same tunics as the arteries, just not as well defined
    • Thinner walls allows more flexibility
    • Larger lumen allows more capacity
  • Closer to surface of the skin, easier to see
  • Valves present in many veins( extremities)
58

Venules

A

larger than capillaries but smaller than veins

carry blood away from capillary beds towards the heart

59

Arteriole: larger tunica media

60
Q
