George's A&P II

Lecture

QuestionAnswer
Atrium Superior
Ventricles Inferior
Chambers 4
AV valves One way valves
Aortic valve Left side
Pulmonary valve Right side
Right Atrium Blood returns to heart
Abnormality:Synosis Narrow opening of valve
Murmurs Abnormal Heart Sounds
Stroke Volume Amount of blood per beat - 70mL
mediastinum where heart is located
Veins are blue (Superior vena cava) Carry deoxygenated blood
Superior chambers receive blood
left side of heart whole body except lungs - oxygenated blood
Pericardium Serous - mesothelial cells in visceral layer (epicardium)
Fibrous pericardium loose fitting inextensible sac
function of heart covering protection against friction
epicardium outer layer
myocardium contractile middle layer
endocardium lines chambers of heart - endothelial cells - continuous with inner layer of blood vessels
chambers cavities
atria receiving chambers
Auricle earlike flap protruding from each atrium
ventricles pumping chambers
one cycle of heart beat complete contraction and relaxation of atrium and ventricles
Papillary muscle one for each cusp - bicuspid -2 muscles; tricuspid 3 muscles
bicuspid left side AV valve
tricuspid right side AV valve
left atrium receives 4 pulmonary veins - 2 from each lung -mitral valve (bicuspid valve) is between left atrium and left ventricle
superior vena cava and inferior vena cava bring deoxygenated blood to right side of heart
pulmonary valve from right ventricle to pulmonary artery - lungs - becomes oxygenated and returns back to left atrium
tricuspid valve between RA and RV
left ventricle through aortic valve into aorta to entire body
semilunar valves one way - all heart valves are one way
Atrioventricular valves AV right tricuspid - 3 flaps are attached to papillary muscles by chordae tendinae
AV Left bicuspid or mitral valve
pulmonary semilunar valve entrance of pulmonary artery
aortic semilunar valve entrance to aorta
coronary arteries right and left - supply blood to heart
anastomoses 2 blood vessels attached bipassing capillaries
cardiac veins blood enters into coronary sinus to drain into right atrium
sinoatrial node (sa node or pacemaker) near opening of superior vena cava
conduction system of heart comprising the SA node, AV node, AV bundle (bundle of HIS), and Purkinje fibers (in subendocardium), made of modified cardiac muscle
AV bundle or bundle of HIS extend to Purkinje fibers
SA node to AV node to Bundle of HIS to Purkunje fibers correct pathway
sympathetic nerves accelerator nerves
sympathetic stimulation to the heart increase stroke volume, heart rate, contractility, cardiac output
sympathetic stimulation to blood vessels vasoconstriction
parasympathetic nerve (vagus fibers) inhibitory, depressor nerves
parasympathetic supply to the heart decrease stroke volume, etc
parasympathetic supply to the blood vessels inhibits sympathetic vasoconstrictor is considered a major mechanism of vasodilation
elastic arteries largest arteries in body - includes aorta - accommodate serge of blood when heart contracts
muscular thick - brachial, gastric,
arterioles control blood pressure - there are many -
metarterioles passage between arteriole and capillary
Capillaries microscopic - primary gas exchange vessels - carry blood from arterioles to venules - part of microcirculation - simple squamous epithelia
true capillaries precapillary sphincters
continuous capillaries continuous lining of endothelial cells
fenestrated capillaries located in endocrine glands
sinusoids very porous - find in liver - know types of capillaries for test
veins reservoir of blood
volume of blood depends on body build, age, etc
Tunica adventitia outermost layer - found in arteries and veins
tunica media smooth muscle layer - found in arteries and veins
tunica intima innermost layer - one single layer of endothelial cells - in all blood vessels
endothelial cells only lining found in capillary
Collagen fibers located in blood vessel walls
Elastin insoluble proteins comprise elastic fibers
systemic circulation blood to entire body except lungs
pulmonary circulation lungs
arterial anastomosis important question on slide beneath this description
systemic veins drain into superior vena cava
hepatic portal circulation all venous blood from GI system will stop at liver thru portal vein
inferior vena cava venous blood from lower extremities and abdomen
foramen ovale opening in septum between right and left atria in fetus - becomes fossa ovalus
ductus arteriosus small vessel connecting pulmonary artery with descending thoracic aorta - becomes ligamentum arteriosum
EKG/ECG electrical activity of heart
p wave atrial depolarization
QRS ventricular depolarization and atrial repolarization
T waves ventricular repolarization
atrial systole contraction of atria - begins p wave of ecg - av valve open - sl valve closed
isovolumetric ventricular contraction - R wave of ecg and first heart sound - occurs between start of ventricular systole and the opening of the sl valves - volume of blood remains the same - increases pressure and then ejection out of ventricle
sounds systolic (first, closure of av valve) and diastolic (second, closure of sl valve)
perfusion pressure pressure gradient needed to maintain blood flow at tissue level
cardiac output stroke volume (per beat) and heart rate (per minute) 5 liters/minute
starling's law of the heart the more stretch of the heart fibers the stronger the contraction
contractility strength of contraction
peripheral resistance arterioles control blood pressure
TPR all peripheral resistance in every arteriole in the body - cannot measure but can measure blood pressure
diameter of arterioles controlled by smooth muscle layer
vasomotor chemoreflexes respond to hypercapnia, hypoxia, and decreased arterial blood pH
venous return respirations, skeletal muscle contractions, semilunar valves (all valves below the level of the heart)
capillary pressure constant 35
anti diuretic hormone reabsorb more fluid - triggered by baroreseptors and osmoreceptors to increase blood pressure
renin-angiotensin mechanism renin - when blood pressure in kidney is low - leads to increased secretion of aldosterone. angiotensin II - causes vasoconstriction promotes increase in overall blood flow
ANH - atrial natriuretic hormone adjusts venous return when its too high - increased urine output to decrease blood volume.
