  • Front
  • Back
structure of heart
4 chambered pump apex/base
Pericardium
Parietal Pericardium
Visceral Pericardium
parietal - lines cavity
visceral - lies directly on heart
pericardium surrounds heart; membrane folds back on itself to form 2 layers
Epicardium
myocardium
endocardium
Epi-outermost layer, blood vessels to nurish heart
Myo- cardiac muscle
Endo- inner layer, simple squamous epithelium
right atrium/right ventricle
tricuspid valve. blood goes from right vent. to lungs via pulmonary artery
left Atrium/right ventricule
bicuspid valve. blood goes to aorta to rest of body
Coronary sinus
stores venous blood
Heart Valves
Atrioventricular valves
Tricuspid (R)
Bicuspid (L)
allows flow from atria to ventricles.
Heart Valves
Semilunar Valves
Pulmonary semilunar valve between R Vent. & Pulmonary Trunk
Aortic Semilunar Valve - L Vent & Aorta
Cardiac Cycle
first part
Systole - Contraction Phase
Diastole- relaxation Phase
Atria & ventricles contract @ same time then thru AV valves
Cardiac Cycle
Atrial Systole
Atrial Systole (vent. diastole) forces blood into relaxed ventricles
Cardiac Cycle
part 3 Ventricular Systole
Vent. Sistole (Atrial Diastole)
Increases blood pressure in ventricles blood moves from vent. to arteries
Cardiac Cycle
final stage
Vent. Diastole
allows AV valves to open and semilunar to close (blood has been moved into system
Heart Sounds
Lup-Dup
Lup - closing of AV valves during Ventricular systole
Dup - Closing of Semilunar valves during vent. diastole
Circuits of blood flow-
Pulmonary Circuit
Systemic Circuit
Pulmonary circuit - de-oxy blood flows from R ventricle to lungs and Oxy blood flows from lungs to L Atrium.
blood suppy to heart
R & L Coronary arteries
coronary veins return blood to coronary sinus which drains into R Atrium.
Heart Conduction System
Electrical impulses etc
SA Node pacemaker of heart. Where conduction for heart starts.
System to regulate heart
SA Node AV nod, AV bundle. Purkinje fibers
input from nervous system to regulate heart
SA node impulse that causes atria to contract
AV node - receives impulse from SA and passes to Bundle of HIss
AV bundle R/L carries impulse down vent. septum.
Purkinje fibers carries impulse to any mycoardium
EKG
P Wave
QRS Wave
T WAve
P = Atrial depolarization
QRS = vent. depolarization
T Vent. repolarization
Structure of arteries & Veins
Structure of vessel itselve
Tunica Externa (support & Elasticity), Tunica Media - smooth muscle fibers, vessel diameter; Tunica Externa - endothelium lining inside blood vessel (keeps inside slick
arteries
arterioles
carrys blood away from heart. forms arterioules.
arteries-arterioles-capillaries
arteries-arterioles go into capillary. smallest vessel. one RBC at a time pass thru more in active tissue, less in connective tissue
Interstitial fluid
Exchange of materials pass thru interstitial fluid as they move between blood & cells. water exchanged by osmosis
Veins
capillaries empty de-oxy blood into venules that unite to form veins. has valves to prevent backflow since pressure is less . holds 60% of blood volume at any instant. venous sinusoids of liver & spleen have reservoirs
Blood Flow
from high to low pressure. greatest in ventricles, lowest in atria. Aorta is highest pressure vessel
skeletal muscles
contractions compress veins forcing blood from one valved segment to another
Systolic/Diastolic Blood Pressure
arterial blood in systemic circuit
systolic -highest pressure during vent. systole
diastolic lowest during vent. diastole
pulse pressure
diff between systolic & diastolic blood pressure. causes the pulse (expansion/ contraction of arterial walls
cardiac output
volume of blood pumped by heart in one minute. higher output=higher blood pressure
Blood volume/pressure
Peripheral Resistance
decrease blood vol. decrease blood pressure and vice versa.
PR friction of blood against vessel walls. constriction of arterioles increase resistance & pressure. Dilation decreases both. Anything that might slow it down
Viscosity
resistance to liquid blood flow. increase viscosity = incr BP
vice versa
vasomotor center
in medulla governs vasoconstriction/vasodilation to alter BP
Pulmonary Circuit
Pul trunk & arteries carry de-oxy blood to lungs
Pul. veins carry oxy blood to L atrium. Oxy moves from higher to lower concentration
Superior & Inferior vena cava
superior returns blood from arms, shoulders, head neck
inferior from legs & lower trunk
Common Carotid
Brachiocephallic
Subclavian
Axillary
2 in neck goes to head
Splits into head & neck
below clavicle
armpit branches into brachial then into radial (thumb side) and ulner (pinky side)
Aorta
Common Illiac
Femoral & Popliteal
bends then goes thru thoracic cavity
common illiac is last branch of descending aorta at legs
femoral - femor popliteal @ knees
Major Veins
Inferior/superior vena cava
Jugular - drains blood from head
brachiocephallic
subclavian, axillary, common iliac, femoral & popliteal
Hepatic Portal Vein
Blood goes thru here to be filtered by liver (detoxified & clean) before goes into vena cava. monitor & adjusts blood composition from digestive tract.
