Ziolo Midterm Flashcards
Hematocrit
RBC/Total blood volume
Microcirculation
arterioles, capillaries, venules
Force
DeltaP/R
Resistance
8(Length)(viscosity)/pi(r^4)
Most important factor in resistance
radius
Innervation of the atria
Parasympathetic and Sympathetic
Innervation of ventricle
Sympathetic ONLY
SA Node
Pacemaker of heart
Heart Conduction System
SA-AV-Bundle of His- Right and Left Bundle Branches- Perkinje Cells
Depolarization phase of myocardial ventricular cell
Opening of Na+ channels
Plateau of myocardial ventricular cell
Opening of calcium and potassium channels
Repolarization phase of myocardial ventricular cell
Opening of potassium channels, closure of calcium
F Channels
Leaky Sodium Channels in nodal cells
Depolarization in nodal cell
opening of calcium channels
repolarization in nodal cell
reopening of potassium channels, closure of calcium
P Wave
Atrial depolarization
QRS complex
ventricular depolarization
T Wave
ventricular repolarization
L Type Channels
calcium channels in plasma membrane that allow calcium to flow into cytosol
Why do we need a long refractory period in heart?
ventricular filling
First heart sound
closure of AV valves
Second heart sound
closure of aortic an pulmonary valves
Stenosis
narrowing
