in SA node what is responsible for the rapid depolarization phase? opening of iCa(L)
in SA node what is responsible for repolarization phase opening of ik and closing iCa(L)
why is there a delay in conduction between atria and ventricles. (ie. why does ventricle contract after atria) to ensure that ventriclular filling is complete before ventricles contract.

placement for leads for ECG recording 1 right wrist, 1 left wrist and 1 left ankle
different waves in ECG P wave-atrial depol QRS wave-ventricular depol T wave-ventricular repol
With patients with partial atrioventricular block, you would expect their ECG to be: normal P waves. QRS, T waves do not always appear after P wave.
When would you expect to see QRS, T waves occuring independently of P waves? (P waves appearing normally) full atrioventricular block
fast AP propagation would have long/short distance between P and QRS short

in ventricular and atrial muscles (not SA or AV) the depolarization phase followed by plateau phase
why is if channels called a funny channel? what is so special about it unlike other sodium channels which open up when the membrane potential is above threshold (positive) this channel is open when the potential is NEGATIVE.
AV node able to generate pacemaker potentials but it is driven to threshold by the action of SA node why??? the inherent rate of AV node is slower than that of SA node. thus it is driven by SA node
some autorhythmic cells called ___ can take over the pacemaker job in case the SA is damaged. ectopic pacemakers
atrial repol not on the ECG b/c it occurs at the same time as the QRS wave
if you have a complete atrioventricular block, then would your ventricles be able to beat? yes but not syncronous to atrial contraction, bc cells in the bundle of His would take over the pacemaker.
AV block cause and symptom cause:AP not trasmitted to ventricles symptom:contraction of ventricle not coordinated with atria
if impulse dies out in AV node, you have AV blockage
reentry cause and symptom cause:part of myocardium damaged, conduction finds a different route. symptom:uncoordinated contraction of myocardium. a single myocardium may contract more than once during a single beating of a heart

which sympathetic hormone speeds up HR E
stroke volume volume at end of diastole - vol end of systole
how to lower the end systole volume to 0? it is impossible, but it can be lowered
ways to increase stroke volume 1. increase end diastolic volume via sympathetic 2. increase contractility via sympathetic
how does increasing end diastolic volume increase stroke volume? stretch of ventricles aligns their actin and myosin optimally so they contract effectively.
increase contractility will increase or decrease end systolic volume decrease
contractility(strength of contraction) quantified by SV/EDV
sympathetic only causes rapid contraction/relaxation of heart. it doesn't effect force of contraction. T or F? F. It also results in stronger contraction
Ca2+ flows into cytosol via ___ channel, and it binds to ___ on SR. DHP(L type Ca2+), ryanodine
during sympathetic stimulation, more Ca2+ flows into cytosol. this is done by GPCR receptor (NE, E agonists), cAMP, PKA activating DHP receptor
what increases contractility 1sympathetic stimulation (NE, E) 2decrease afterload
effect of increasing end diastolic volume on HR no effect
effect of parasympathetic on HR slows down
effect of parasympathetic on stroke volume no effect
cardiac output is stroke volume * HR
what backup does a heart use in an anaerobic condition? no backup. it doesn't have capacity for anaerobic metabolism
in atheletes you see low/high stroke volume and low/high heart rate high, low
arterial pressure pressure heart has to pump against
arterial pressure also known as afterload
effect of high afterload on contractility high afterload => sarcomeres cannot fully contract => reduced SV
aschemia reduced O2 in myocytes
reduced O2 in myocytes called aschemia
Frank Starling mechanism says higher end diastolic volume => stronger contraction (NOT INCREAESD CONTRACTILITY)
effect of sympathetic on contractility and end diastolic volume increase contractility, increase diastolic volume by contracting veins. (alpha adrenergic receptor)
effect of increasing end diastolic volume on contractility no effect
how is contractility affected by end diastolic volume NOT AFFECTED!!, because contractility is a force of contraction at ANY GIVEN EDV.
how does parasympathetic effect/doesn't effect stroke volume doestn't effect, because no innervation to ventricles
in capillary __ membranes present. only endothelial to allow exch of O2, glucose
major reservoir of blood is elastic veins
how does blood continue to flow during diastole? arteries expand during systole, and squeezes blood to return to normal form during diastole

effect of elasticity on mean arterial pressure decreaseing elasticity increases MAP
calculation of systemic blood flow pressure diff between aorta, vena cava / resistance and pressure of vena cava is negligible

movement of stuff out of blood called filteration
movement of stuff into blood called absorption
filteration is movement of stuff out of blood
absorption is movement of stuff into blood
hydrostatic pressure is force pushing fluid out of the compartment
force pushing fluid out of the compartment is hydrostatic pressure
opposing force of hydrostatic pressure is oncotic pressure (pi)
osmotic pressure due to only protein is oncotic pressure
oncotic pressure (pi) is osmotic pressure due to only protein (pressure drawing fluid into the compartment)
oncotic pressure caused by big molecules (proteins) that cannot cross the membrane
net filtration pressure is net hydrostatic pressure - net oncotic pressure
as blood move further from the heart hydrostatic pressure __ decreases
as blood move further form the heart oncotic pressure __ remains constant
a positive net filteration pressure indicates favors filteration. ie. stuff flows out of blood
if stuff flows into blood (ie. absorption) then a net filteration pressure is negative
at arterial end of capillary the net filtration pressure is positive
at venuole end of capillary the net filtration is negative
the hydrostatic pressure P, of venuole end of capillary in comparison to arterial end of capillary is smaller
the oncotic pressure Pi, of venuole end of capillary in comparison to arterial end of capillary is same
effect of vasodilation on hydrostatic pressure increases P
effect of vasoconstriction on hydrostatic presure decrease P
how does vasodilation increase hydrostatic presure vasodilation occurs in arterioles hence the blood flow to capillaries is increased in case of vasodilation. and increased blood flow = increased hydrostatic pressure

in regulating the end diastolic volume, sympathetic stimulus binds to alpha1-adrenergic receptor. how does affect the EDV?? allows vasoconstriction of veins so more blood can be returned to the heart
