1
Q

What are the functions of blood?

A
  1. trasport:
    - Oxygen
    - carbon dioxide
    - nutrients (digested food)
    - hormones to target organs
    - wastes to kidney/lungs
  2. regulate blood PH and electrolyte composition
  3. defend against pathogens (white blood cells)
  4. restrict blood loss through injury sites (sealant)
  5. stabilization of body temp

Q

What is the blood composition?

A
  • Plasma (55% volume)
  • Plasma protein

Q

Where is the parietal pericardium?

A

“shrink wrap”
serous membrane that contributes to the pericardial sac
reflects onto the heart surface as visceral pericardium (looks over acts as a “parent”)

Q

describe cardiac muscle? what is it connected by?

- branched - connected by intercalary disc = helps communicate
striated

coronary sinus
pectinate muscles

Q

What makes up the right ventricle?

A

right atrioventricular valve aka = tricuspid
papillary muscles anchors cordae tendinae
trabeculae carneae = prevents sloshing
pulmonary semilunar valve (3 cusps)
pulmonary trunk

19
Q

what makes up the left atrium?

A

4 pulmonary veins
pectinate muscles
left atrioventricular valve (bicuspid/mitral = 2 cusps)

20
Q

what makes up the left ventricle?

A
  • left atrioventricular valve aka bicuspid/mitral
  • papillary muscles anchor chordae tendineae
  • trabeculae carnea
  • left (aortic) semilunar valve (3 cusps)
  • aorta
21
Q

what is the significance of Coronary valves? bad seal?

A

insure one-way flow of blood through heart
bad seal? - regurgitation
- regurgitation reduces heart efficiency
- regurgitaton = gurgling/fluttering sound = murmer
move valve problems are associated with A/V valves

22
Q

what is mitral valve prolapse?

A

failure of chords/papillary m.s. to stabilize bicuspid valve

23
Q

systolic vs. diastolic

A

systolic - contraction of the myocardium

diastolic - relaxation of the myocardium

24
Q

what is a heart murmur?

A

mechanical failure of heart valve

- gurgling/futtering sound

25
Q

what is the order of blood through heart?

A
  1. atrial systole injects blood into ventricles
  2. ventricles fill, and AV valves start to close
  3. atrial Diastole
  4. ventricle systole injects blood into the aorta and pulmonary artery
  5. LUPP sound
  6. back pressure builds up on semilunar valves
  7. DUPP sound
  8. ventricle diastole
26
Q

Where is the Sino-atrial (SA) node?

A

medial wall of the right atrium

  • pacemaker (nodal) cells are responsible for heart rate
  • electrical wave
27
Q

What atrio-ventricular (AV) node?

A

located at the junction between the atria and ventricles

- connected to the SA node

28
Q

What is the bundle of His?

A

AV bundle
runs from the AV node through the interventricular septum
- purkinjie fibers branch then out into ventricular walls
flows from Apex -> UP

29
Q

What node initiates its own heartbeat?

A

SA node = Baseline

30
Q

what system controls a slowed heart rate and accelerated heart rate? and hormone?

A

slowed heart rate: parasympathetic = acetylcholine

accelerated heart rate: sympathetic = Norepinephrine

31
Q

anginia pectoris?

A

referred pain associated with MI (myocardial infraction)

32
Q

Embolous

A

drifting clot in the circulation (LOOSE)

33
Q

Embolism

A

Blockage due to the clot (stoped

34
Q

coronary ischemia

A

restricted blood supply to myocardium

- think of coronary arterys

35
Q

bradycardia

A

slower than normal heart rate

36
Q

tachycardia

A

faster than normal heart rate

37
Q

infarction

A

tissue death due to blockage

38
Q

What are the first branches off of the aorta?

A

R and L coronary arteries

39
Q

What comes off of the Right Coronary Artery (RCA)

A
  • anterior ventricular a.
  • marginal a. - right margin of heart
  • posterior interventricular a.
40
Q

What comes off of the Left Coronary Artery

A
  • anterior interventricula a.
  • circumflex branch - continues around left side
  • left marginal a. left margin of heart
  • posterior ventricular
41
Q

what is the venous drainage of the myocardium on the anterior side?

A

great cardiac vein (drains myocardium)

anterior cardiac veins

42
Q

what is the venous drainage of the myocardium on the posterior side?

A

Posterior cardiac vein

Middle cardiac vein

43
Q

what is the venous drainage of the myocardium on the coronary sinus?

A

Cardiac veins combine to form the coronary sinus

coronary sinus drains into right atrium
