23
Q

what is coronary dominance

A

coronary artery system that is responsible for the majority of the post L ventricular circulation

majority is R dominant

24
Q

what arteries come off the aortic arch

A

braciocephalic a (R carotid and R subclavian)
L carotid
L subclavian

25
Q

what does the aorta bifurcate into

A

B iliac artery

26
Q

where does plaque build up occur in the arteries

A

tunica intima within the epithelial cells

27
Q

within vessels, where is the smooth muscle

A

tunica media

28
Q

which layer of vessels is made up of collagen/elastin

A

adventitia/externa

29
Q

which layer of the heart has the highest number of mitochondria

A

myocardium

30
Q

what makes up the myocardial mass

A

mitochondria in the myocardium

31
Q

what is the relationship between Ca and contractibility and HR

A

the more Ca binds to filaments causes increased contractability and higher HR

32
Q

when is myoblobin stored and released

A

O2 stored during diastole and releases during systole

33
Q

what is automaticity

A

pacemaker ability

34
Q

what is conductivity

A

conduct impulses to one another

35
Q

what is contractability

A

shorter or longer

36
Q

what is irritability

A

contract on their own and/or send impulses without first being stimulated from another source

37
Q

how does the sympathetic NS affect the heart

A

increased HR
increased contractability
coronary artery vasodilation

38
Q

how does the parasympathetic NS affect the heart

A

via vagus nerve

decrease HR
decrease contractability
SA node by R vagus
AV node by L vagus

39
Q

what are the sympathetic cardiac receptors

A

adrenergic
beta 1
beta 2

40
Q

what is the function of adrenergic receptors

A

peripheral vasoconstriction
epinephrine/norepinephrine
increase systemic vascular resistance

41
Q

what is the function of beta 1 receptors

A

increased HR and SV
increase CO

42
Q

what is the function of beta 2 receptors

A

pulmonary and peripheral vasodilation

decrease systemic vascular resistance

43
Q

what occurs during atrial systole

A

blood ejected to relaxed ventricles

44
Q

what occurs during atrial diastole

A

atria relaxed, prep next cycle

45
Q

what occurs during early ventricular systole

A

AV valves close
not enough pressure for SL to open

46
Q

what occurs during late ventricular systole

A

SL valves open
blood ejected

47
Q

what occurs during early ventricular diastole

A

close SL valve

48
Q

what occurs during late ventricular systole

A

all chambers relaxed
passive ventricular filling

49
Q

what is S1 heart sound

A

LUB

closure of AV valves
early ventricular systole
peak R wave

50
Q

what is S2 heart sound

A

DUB

closure of SL valves
starts ventricular diastole
end T wave

51
Q

what is stroke volume

A

volume of blood ejected per contraction

52
Q

what is CO

A

volume of blood ejected from L ventricle per minute
4-6 L/min

CO= HRxSV

53
Q

what is preload

A

degree heart m can stretch before contraction
end diastolic volume- blood return to heart
direct proportional to SV

54
Q

what is contractility

A

ability of ventricles to contract to send blood to the lungs and periphery

increase HR= increase contractility

HR >120 increase Ca increase contraction

reflected by EF

55
Q

what is the best indicator of heart function

A

ejection fraction

56
Q

what is afterload

A

force that resists contraction
pressure in arterial system during systole
SVR
increase afterload= decrease SV and CO
