32 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
what is systole
ventricular contraction
what is diastole
ventricular relaxation
what are the coverings of the heart
pericardium (fibrous and serous)
what are the layers of the heart
epicardium, myocardium, endocardium
R. heart is what type of circuit
pulmonary circuit of O2 poor systemic blood
L. heart is what type of circuit
systemic circuit for O2 laden blood to provide functional supply for body
describe the circulation of blood in the heart via workload, ect.
equal volume but unequal workload. left. V has 5X more friction
what is coronary circulation
functional blood supply for heart
what are atrioventricular valves
bi and tricuspid, prevent blackflow into atria when vents. contract
what is crucial to cardiac muscles to communicate and complete contractions?
intercalated disc (gap junctions)
how much mitochondria are in the heart
25-35%
how does the heart contract
all or none
what is the mechanisms/events of contraction
automaticity-initiate own beat
rythmicity-regularity of pace-making
what is the do the sounds of the heart mean
1st-AV close
2nd-SL shut
what is the length of the cardiac cycle and all its parts
total lenght=.8s/atrial systole=.1s/ventrical systole=.3s/remaining .4s is total heart relaxation
what is cardiac output
amount of blood pumped out by each ventricle in 1 min
What is the equation to find cardiac output
CO=Heart rate X Stroke Volume
What is stroke volume
volume of blood pumped out by by one ventricle w/ each beat
How do you find Stroke Volume (sv)
sv=end diastolic volume (EDV) - end systolic volume(ESV)
what are the normal 3 layers of a vessel wall
tunica intima, tunica media, tunica externa
describe the tunica intima
contains endothelium
describe the tunica media
smooth muscle and sheets of elastin, regulated by sympathetic vasomotor nerves for vasoconstriction and vasodilation
describe tunica externa
loosely woven collagen fibers w/ nerves, veins ect.
what are the 3 groups of the arterial system
elastic, muscular, arterioles
what/where are elastic arteries
thick-walled arteries near heart (aorta and major branches), large lumen for low resistance
what/where are muscular arteries
deliver blood to specific organs, most of named arteries, thickest tunica media, most active in vasoconstriction
describe arterioles
smallest arteries lead into capillary beds, only single layer of smooth muscle cells
describe capillaries
only made of tunica intima, microscopic, exchange materials
What is a vascular shunt in the capillaries
metarteriole
how much of total body blood are in the veins
65%
How do you find pulse pressure
systolic pressure -diastolic pressure
how do you find the MAP
Map=DP + (PP/3)
