Question
Answer
MECHANICAL EVENTS OF THE CARDIAC CYCLE   MECHANICS OF THE CARDIAC CYCLE  
🗑
Systole: What contracts/relaxes and what de/polarize?   Ventricular contraction/depolarization  
🗑
Diastole: What contracts/relaxes and what de/polarize?   Ventricular relaxation; repolarization  
🗑
SYSTOLE   SYSTOLE  
🗑
What happens to the AV valves to make them close? Is this in systole or diastole?   In the beginning of systole, ventricular pressure is greater than atrial pressure to make them close  
🗑
What is this phenomena called?   Isovolumetric ventricular contraction  
🗑
What is this AKA?   Isobaloonic ventricular contraction  
🗑
Does an ejection of blood occur from the ventricles? Why>   No, because the pulmornary and aortic valves aren't open due to a lack of pressure in chambers  
🗑
When do the aeortic and pulmonary valves open?   When the ventricular pressure is over the aortic and pulmonary trunk pressure  
🗑
DIASTOLE   DIASTOLE  
🗑
What happens to the ventricles at the onset of diastole?   They releax  
🗑
What happens with respect to pressure to get the aeortic and pulmonary trunk to close>   The ventircular pressure fall below the pressure of the aeortic and pulmonary trunk  
🗑
Does blood move here? So what is this phenonema called?   No blodo moves, so it is like the isovolumentric or isobaloomic ventricular relaxation  
🗑
When do the AV valves open?   When ventricular pressures is BELOW the pressure int eh right and left atria, AV open  
🗑
What is diastole?   the ventircular filling phase  
🗑
What is the speed of filling?   Very fast first  
🗑
How much blood does atrial contraction at the very end of diastole add?   Very small amount is added to ventricle  
🗑
VOLUMES   VOLUMES  
🗑
End diastolic volume is?   The amount of blood in the ventricles just before systole  
🗑
End sytolic volume?   The volume remaining after ejection  
🗑
Storked volume:   Volume ejected  
🗑
How is it caclulated? What is it in an adult?   End diastolic -- end systolic, it is about 70mV  
🗑
PRESSURES   PRESSURES  
🗑
Does the right heart or the left heart have lower pressure?   The right heart!  
🗑
What does this lead to?   The fact that the right heart wall lis much thinner  
🗑
CARDIAC OUTPUT   CARDIAC OUTPUT  
🗑
Define cardiac output:   Volume of blood pumped by each ventricle  
🗑
What is the equation to calculate cardiac output?   Heart rate x stroke volume  
🗑
What is the cardiac output when you're excercising? When you're REALLY excercising?   25-35 and increases to 200 beats a minute  
🗑
HEART RATE CONTROL   HR  
🗑
What is the intrinsic HR?   100 beats a minute  
🗑
Resting heart rate?   72 beats a minute  
🗑
What kind of nerve fibers innervate the heart?   Parasympathetic and sympathetic  
🗑
What happens when you increase parasympathetic nerve stimulation?   Decrease HR  
🗑
What happens when you increase syjmpathetic nerve stimulation   increase HR  
🗑
What happens when you increase ciruclating EPI? Why?   Increase HR; b/c beta 1 receptors are bound  
🗑
What does parasympathetic stimulation do to the membrane potential? Why?   causes it to be more negative before teh pacemaker potential begins  
🗑
CHANGES IN STORKE VOLUME   CHANGES IN STROKE VOLUME  
🗑
How can you cause an increase in strroke volume?   More forceful contraction  
🗑
What are the two factors that cause this?   Changes in enddiastolic volume and changes in the magnitude of sympathetic nervous sytem input ot he ventricles  
🗑
When do you fill up the end diastolic volume?   Before diastole,  
🗑
What does happen at the end of diastole?   Filling ventricles up  
🗑
How do you increase end diastolic volume?   Increase ventricular filling pressure  
🗑
STARLING'S LAW OF THE HEART   STARLING OF THE HEART  
🗑
What is the law?   Increasing end-diastolic volume will have a greater force of contraction and will yeild a higher stroke volume  
🗑
What is venous return?   Flow of blood from veins to the heart  
🗑
What is the eraltionship of venous return and CO?   Direct, as one increases, so does the other  
🗑
Laying down on stage   see mandy  
🗑
Getting up   mandy!  
🗑
Define intrinsic return?   Venous return  
🗑
So blood is flowing from what to what?   from veins to heart  
🗑
How can increased venous return increase CO?   by increasing stroke volume and DISTENDING the ventricles  
🗑
How would one distend the ventricles?   Laying down on stage  
🗑
AFTERLOAD   AFTERLOAD  
🗑
What is afterload? What is pre-load?   The resistance to ventricular ejection during sytole to ejection; pre-load is the volume of blood in teh ventricles before contraction  
🗑
What does an increase in afterload lead to?   increase end systolic volume and decrease in stroke volume  
🗑
What happens to cardiac muscles and blood flow in this case?   They shorten more slowly; there's less blood in ventrricles  
🗑
When would this happen? (2 reasons)   When you've got high arterial pressure and stiffening of the arteries  
🗑
SYMPATHIETIC NERVES   SYMPATHETIC NERVES  
🗑
What're the components of the syjmpathtic nerves?   Conducting system and myocardial tissue  
🗑
What is the conducting system purpose?   Inrease HR and conduction Rate  
🗑
What is the myocardial system prupose?   Increase contractilitity  
🗑
How would the curve be measured?   Measure force of muslce independent of filling  
🗑
What does starling measure?   After filling  
🗑
SUMMARY   SUMMARY  
🗑
What 3 things determine stroke volume?   Preload, afterload, and contractility  
🗑
What is pre-load?   Cardiac filling during diastole  
🗑
What is it a reflection of? what releationshiop, that is?   Length-tension erlationship  
🗑
What is AFTERLOAD?   Load on heart during ejection  
🗑
What is it a reflection of?   Force velocity relationsihp  
🗑
What is contractility?   Force of contractions as modified by sympathetic activity  
🗑
What is the sympathetic activity due to?   EPI and NE  
🗑
SUMMARY OF EFFECTS OF AUTONOMIC NERVES ON THE HEART   summary again  
🗑
SA NODE   SA NODE  
🗑
What does sympathetic nerves affect?   Heart rate  
🗑
What do sympathetic nerves cause?   Increase heart rate  
🗑
What do parasympathetic nerves cause?   decrease heart rate  
🗑
AV NODE   AV NODE
