nervous control of heart
|
-sympathetic nerve
-parasympathetic nerve |
|
humoral control of heart
|
1. hormones: epi, norepi
2. electrolytes: Na, K, Ca 3. drugs |
|
parasympathetic nerve locations
|
1. L and R atrium
2. SA node 3. AV node **not venticles** |
|
sympathetic nerve locations
|
1. L and R atrium
2. SA node 3. AV node 4. L and R ventricle |
|
parasympathetic nerve effects
|
decreases:
1. HR 2. speed of conduction: atrium 3. excitability: atrium ** not force of ventricular contraction ** |
|
sympathetic nerve effects
|
increases:
1. HR 2. speed of conduction 3. force of contraction 4. excitability |
|
chronotropic
|
HR
1. sympathetic + 2. parasympathetic - |
|
dromotropic
|
speed of conduction
1. sympathetic + 2. parasympathetic - to atria only |
|
inotropic
|
force of contraction
1. sympathetic + 2. parasympathetic - to atria only |
|
bathmotropic
|
excitability
1. sympathetic + 2. parasympathetic - to atria only |
|
norepi
|
-causes steeper diastolic depolarization through:
1. increased Na influx 2. decreased K efflux ... HR increases |
|
acetylcholine
|
-causes flatter diastolic depolarization:
1. increased K efflux 2. decreased Ca influx ... HR decreases |
|
ANS and sleep
|
PS dominates and subdues the S
- HR decreases - S dominates during day |
|
ANS and increasing/extreme activity
|
1. increasing: S gains strength and dominates PS
2. extreme: PS has no effect on heart |
|
ANS and intrinsic HR
|
when both PS and S nerves assert equal influence they eliminate each other and heart beats at intrinsic
rate of SA node |
|
effects of norepi and epi
|
-synthesized by adrenal gland and released into blood
-exert same effect on heart - Norepi also NT of sympathetic nerve: synthesized and released from varicosities of the sympathetic nerve |
|
norepi/ epi and chronotropy
|
+ chronotropy:
increased HR |
|
norepi/epi and dromotropy
|
+ dromotropy:
increased speed of conduction |
|
norepi/epi and inotropy
|
+ inotropy:
increased force of contraction |
|
norepi/epi and bathmotropy
|
+ bathmotropy:
increased excitability |
|
Acetylcholine
|
1. NT of PS nerve synthesized in synapses
2. exerts - tropic effects on the heart 3: NT: all skeletal mm, preganglionic of S and PS, postganglionic of PS |
|
acetylcholine and chronotropy
|
- chronotropy:
decreased HR |
|
acetylcholine and dromotropy
|
-negative dromotropy: only atria
-decreased speed of conduction |
|
acetylcholine and inotropy
|
-negative inotropy: only atria
- decreased force of contraction |
|
acetylcholine and bathmotropy
|
-negative bathmotropy: only atria
- decreased excitability |
|
increased contractility
|
-results in larger stroke V for any given end-diastolic V
1. norepi 2. isoprotenerol 3. cardia glycosides: digitalis |
|
decreased contractility
|
-smaller stroke V
1. drugs 2. heart failure |
|
drugs that cause decreased contractility
|
1. propanalol: Beta agonist
2. barbituates 3. anaesthesia 4. analgesia |
|
heart problems that cause decreased contractility
|
heart failure:
1. coronary artery disease 2. cardiac hypoxia 3. myocarditis 4. valvular defects 5. toxic reactions 6. electrolyte imbalances |
