Question
Answer
show essential for life, composed of heart and blood vessels, and circulate blood continuously to maintain homeostasis  
🗑
transportation of blood through the body   show
🗑
perfusion   show
🗑
if cardiovascular system fails (i.e. heart fails to pump blood or vessels are blocked)   show
🗑
show "soft pipes" of the cardiovascular system of which there are three types  
🗑
show arteries, veins, and capillaries  
🗑
arteries   show
🗑
veins   show
🗑
show sites of gas exchange that occurs between blood and air in lungs and between blood and body cells  
🗑
show center of the cardiovascular system and is a hollow, four-chambered organ (atria and ventricles) with two pumps  
🗑
atria   show
🗑
ventricles   show
🗑
show right sided pump and left sided pump  
🗑
show receives deoxygenated blood from body and pumps it to the lungs  
🗑
left sided pump   show
🗑
left atrium and right atrium   show
🗑
show receive blood from respective atria and are inferior chambers that are meant for pumping blood away  
🗑
show transport blood directly to and from chambers and are continuous with each chamber  
🗑
show pulmonary trunk, aorta, superior and inferior vena cava  
🗑
show splits into pulmonary arteries and receives deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle (only artery that caries deoxygenated blood)  
🗑
vessels entering the right atrium carrying deoxygenated blood are...   show
🗑
show bring blood back from the top part of the body  
🗑
show brings blood back from the lower part of the body  
🗑
show right and left pulmonary veins (only veins that cary oxygenated blood)  
🗑
vessel leaving the right ventricle carrying deoxygenated blood   show
🗑
show aorta  
🗑
two sets of valves located within the heart   show
🗑
show between the atrium and ventricle of each side and there are two  
🗑
two atrioventricular valves   show
🗑
right AV valve or tricuspid   show
🗑
left AV valve or bicuspid or mitral   show
🗑
show boundary between the ventricle and arterial trunk and they open to allow blood to flow through the heart and close to prevent backflow and there are two  
🗑
show pulmonary semilunar valve and aortic semilunar valve  
🗑
show located between right ventricle and pulmonary trunk  
🗑
show located between left ventricle and the aorta  
🗑
circulation routes   show
🗑
show carries deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart, goes through blood vessels to the lungs, picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide, and brings blood back through vessels to the left side of the heart  
🗑
show moves oxygenated blood from the left side of the heart, moves through vessels to systemic cells, exchanges nutrients, gases, and wastes, and returns blood in vessels to right side of the heart  
🗑
show right atrium -> tricuspid valve -> right ventricle -> pulmonary semilunar valve -> pulmonary trunk -> pulmonary arteries -> lungs -> pulmonary veins -> left atrium -> bicuspid valve -> left ventricle -> aortic semilunar valve -> aorta -> systemic circ.  
🗑
heart location   show
🗑
show enclosed the heart and consists of three layers  
🗑
three layers of the pericardium   show
🗑
pericardial sac   show
🗑
show outer portion (tough connective tissue) and inner portion (thin serous membrane)  
🗑
outer portion of pericardial sac   show
🗑
visceral layer of serous pericardium (epicardium)   show
🗑
pericardial cavity   show
🗑
show ventricle walls are thicker than atrial walls because ventricles are the "pumping chambers"  
🗑
thickness of left ventricle   show
🗑
heart valves   show
🗑
show covers right atrioventricular opening and has three cusps  
🗑
show covers left atrioventricular opening and has two cusps  
🗑
show when open, cusps extend into the ventricles (allow blood to move from atrium to ventricle), and close with ventricular contraction (forces blood superiorly)  
🗑
chordae tendinae   show
🗑
show located between right ventricle and pulmonary trunk  
🗑
show located between left ventricle and the aorta  
🗑
semilunar valves   show
🗑
show open when ventricles contract and close when ventricles relax  
🗑
show a force of blood that pushes valves open and blood enters arterial trunks  
🗑
ventricles relax causing   show
🗑
show first sound occurs as AV valves close and signifies beginning of systole and second sound occurs when SL valves close at the beginning of ventricular diastole  
🗑
heart murmurs   show
🗑
show initiate and conduct electrical signals (sinoatrial (SA) node -> atrioventricular (AV) node -> atrioventricular (AV) bundle -> purkinje fibers)  
🗑
show in posterior wall of right atrium, adjacent to superior vena cava, initiates heartbeat, and referred to as "pacemaker" of heart  
🗑
show in floor of right atrium, between right AV valve and coronary sinus opening  
🗑
show extends from AV node through interventricular septum, divides into left and right bundles  
🗑
show extend from left and right bundles, from apex of heart through walls of ventricles  
🗑
show monitoring electrodes attached to skin (at wrist, ankles, and chest locations) that collect electrical signals and chart them to provide assessment of electrical changes of heart and composite tracing of all cardiac action potentials  
🗑
three deflections in waves and segments of ECG recording   show
🗑
P wave   show
🗑
show electrical changes associated with ventricular depolarization and atria simultaneously repolarizing but masked by above  
🗑
show electrical change associated with ventricular repolarization  
🗑
waves of ECG recording   show
🗑
flat lines of ECG recording   show
🗑
systole   show
🗑
show relaxation of the heart chamber  
🗑
cardiac cycle components...   show
🗑
pressure changes in cardiac cycle   show
🗑
pressure changes in cardiac cycle are responsible for...   show
🗑
ventricular contraction   show
🗑
show causes ventricular pressure to decrease, closure of semilunar valves (pressure no longer pushing them open) and AV valves open (pressure no longer pushing them closed)  
🗑
as the cardiac cycle begins...   show
🗑
atrial systole (1)   show
🗑
show most amount of blood volume in ventricles  
🗑
early ventricular systole (2)   show

🗑
show amount of blood  
🗑
ventricular ejection   show
🗑
show blood remaining in ventricle  
🗑

🗑
late ventricular diastole (5)   show
🗑
show amount of blood pumped by a single ventricle in one minutes, measure of effectiveness of cardiovascular system, increases in healthy individuals during exercise, may not increase in inds with impaired heart function, determined by heart rate & stroke vol.  
🗑
heart rate (HR)   show

🗑
larger heart, larger stroke volume   show
🗑
