SD D1 Flashcards
Amount of pressure needed to open the pulmonic ventricle?
10mmHg
Amount of pressure needed to open aortic valve?
80mmHg
Give the 2 atrioventricular valves.
Tricuspid and Mitral Valve
This type of value prevents back flow of blood to atria during ventricular systole.
AV Valve
This type of valve prevents back flow of blood from aorta and pulmonary artery into the ventricles during ventricular diastole
Semilunar Valves
This is the rhythmic pumping of the heart
Cardiac Cycle
Normal volume for end-systolic volune
50ml
Normals end-diastole volume
120ml
Atrial Kick - First 2/3
Passive Ventricular Contractions
Arial Kick - last 1/3
Atria contracts and pushes blood into ventricles
This artery supplies the right atrium, right ventricle, AV node, bundle of His and 60% of the SA Node.
Right Coronary Artery
This artery supplies the lateral wall of the Left ventricle, inferior wall of the Left ventricle, Left Atrium and 40% of the SA node.
Circumflex Artery
This specialized conduction tissue is the hearts dominant pacemaker
SA node
This type of tissue allows rapid transmission of electrical impulses throughout the myocardium.
Specialized Conduction Tissue
This heart node is located between the SVC and the Right atrium
SA node
This type of heart node creates a slight delay before electrical impulses are carried. i.e. PR Interval
AV node
This Specialized conduction tissue is responsible for transmission of impulses to the bundle branches.
Bundle of His
This type of SCT is located throughout the ventricles
Purkinje Fibers
This SCT is located at the top of the IV septum
Bundle of His
Bpm of the Sa node
100 BPM
BPM of AV node
40-60BPM
BPM of the Purkinje Fibers
20-40BPM
This is the blood ejected with each Myocardial Contraction.
Stroke Volume
Normal Stroke Volume
55-100ml/beat
This is the amount of left in the ventricle at the end of diastole
Preload or LVEDV (Left Ventricular End Diastolic Volume)
Ability of the Ventricles to Contract.
Contractility
This is the force of the left ventricle must to overcome aortic pressure to open the aortic valve.
Afterload
Amount of pressure exerted by Afterload.
80mmHg
Normal Cardiac Output.
4-6L/min.
Formula of Cardiac output
Heart Rate x Stroke Volume
This is a measure of cardiac performance
Cardiac Index
Percent of blood empties from the ventricle during systole
Ejection Fraction
Normal Ejection Fraction
55%
This represents energy cost of the myocardium
MVO2 (myocardial oxygen demand)
formula of MVO2
RPP: SBPxHR (Rate of pressure product)
This is the pressure during each heart beat cycle
MAP
Medullary Oblongata Control releases for cardiac acceleration
Epinephrine and Norepinephrine
Medullary Oblongata Control releases for cardiac deceleration
Acetylcholine
Location of the Baroreceptors /pressorceptors
Walls of the aortic arch and carotid sinus
These structures are excited by the stretch of the blood vessels and is used in controlling HR
Baroreceptors /pressorceptors
These receptors are sensitive to changes in O2, CO2 and lactic acid
Chemoreceptors
Location of the chemoreceptors of the body
Carotid and Aortic Bodies
Referred pain for cardiac conditions usually present on which side
Left Side
Angina Scale 0
no angina
Angina Scale 1
Light, barely noticeable
Angina Scale 4
most painful experience of patient
This shows the presence of irregular heart beat
Palpitations
SOB with mild exertion and indicates pulmonary congestion
Dyspnea on Exertion - DOE
Left ventricle is unable to completely empty itself with blood
Pulmonary Congestion
SOB in recumbent position usually at night
Paroxysmal Nocturnal Dyspnea
Inability to breathe in supine position
Orthopnea
This position increases the amount of blood returning from the LE to the heart and lungs.
Supine
Position of sleep for patients with severe CHF
sleeping in upright chair supporting the head and thorax on pillows
Other name of Fainting
Syncope
Common side-effect of beta-blockers (anti-hypertensive agent)
fatigue
Ssx: Hacking, frothy blood tinged sputum
Pulmonary Edema and Left CHF
Large amounts of fluid in the pulmonary tree
Pulmonary Edema
Bluish discoloration of the lips and nail beds of fingers and toes
cyanosis
Decrease O2 level in arterial blood, discoloration of trunk, head and mucous membrane
Central Cyanosis
Normal Oxygenation but problem with blood flow, discoloration of nail beds and lips
Peripheral Cyanosis
SSx of CHF and Abn Hemoglobin
Central Cyanosis
Ssx of venous obstruction, anxiety and cold environment
Preipheral cyanosis
Abn accumulation in the interstitium
Edema
Edema 1+ trace
barely perceptible
