Q

Definition of Murmur

A
  • Cardiac murmur is the sound produced by the rush of blood around a heart abnormality (intracardiac irregularity)
  • Could be a bunch of different branches

Q

What happens during isovolumetric ventricular contractions?

A

Volume stays the same, but the pressure is increasing because of contractions in the ventricles (the valves haven’t opened yet)

Q

Hepatic portal system?

A
  • Is the gastrointestinal areas (spletnik area) veins going through the liver before going to the inferior vena cava
  • The liver does not ‘filter’, it detoxifies and metabolizes the stuff in the blood

Q

How do parasympathetic nerves get sent to the plexus?

A

Vagus nerve

22
Q

Where is the cardiac plexus

A

By the aortic arch, NOT IN, BY (beside)

23
Q

What is the name of final branches of the bundle of HIS?

A

Purkinje Fibers

24
Q

How many branches of the bundle of HIS before fibers?

A

2, on the right and left

25
Q

What happens to the pulmonary valve vein when the tricuspid valve is open?

A
  • Nothing, it is closed.

- When the AV valves are open, the SL valves are closed

26
Q

What is the normal sequence of the heart contraction?

A

Atria contracts then the ventricles

27
Q

Chordae Tendonae is?

A

The tendons (fibers) holding down the boarders of the leaflets of the AV valves to the papillary muscles

28
Q

Soft entanglement of the inside of the ventricles?

A

Trabeculae carnae

29
Q

Endothelium is what type of cell?

A

Non keratinized simple squamous cells

30
Q

How many pulmonary arteries do we have?

A

0, they’re veins – NOT ARTERIES

Q

What kind of vessels are the arteries that distribute?

A

Muscular

34
Q

Last spot of muscles in the arteries?

A

Pre capillary sphincter

35
Q

What feeds the SA and AV nodes?

A

Para and sympathetic nerves from the plexus

36
Q

Name of the structure by which the heart drains its venous blood into the right atrium?

A

Coronary sinuses

37
Q

What are the branches of the right coronary artery?

A

Posterior interventricular and medial

38
Q

Myocardium walls are oxygenated by the?

A

Coronary arteries – 1st branches of the aorta

39
Q

How many holes in the heart skeleton?

A

5 – 4 plus the bundle of His
