Intro To Anatomy Flashcards
Follows the path of the interventricular septum
IV sulcus
Follows the path between both ventricles and atria
AV sulcus
Contains the circumflex artery, RCA and coronary sinus
AV sulcus
Contains the LAD, great cardiac vein, PDA, middle cardiac vein
IV sulcus
Branches of the left main coronary artery (2)
LAD and Cx
Heart muscle layers from inner to outer
Endocardium, myocardium and epicardium (aka visceral pericardium)
Layers of the pericardium
Fibrous and serous. Fibrous is the outer most layer
Normal amount of pericardial fluid
20-50mL
Leaflets on the AV
RCC, LCC, NCC
MV leaflets
Anterior and posterior
How are the scallops of the mitral valve numbered?
1-3 lateral to medial
Leaflets of the tricuspid valve
Anterior, posterior and septal
3 cusps of the PV
Anterior, left, right
Which two arteries travel within the AV groove?
Cx and RCA
Which cardiac vein runs down the anterior IV sulcus?
The great cardiac vein
What two layers does pericardial fluid lie between?
Visceral and fibrous pericardium
The posterior mitral leaflet has 3 scallops which are labeled P1, P2, P3 with P1 being on the medial side
False
Where is the most common site for a congenital ventricular septal defect to occur?
The membranous portion of the IVS
