supply oxygenated blood to the rest of body's tissues, depending on the changing needs of the body at that location and moment of time |
|
sac: composition |
ARTERIES, aorta and its braches |
|

purpose of arterioles |
1. regulate mean blood pressure 2. control blood flow into organs |
|
composition of arterioles |
metarterioles and cappillaries |
|
sac controlled by |
neverous system- cardiovascular center: neurons in the medulla oblongata, 3 centers
|
|
what are the 3 centers of the cardiovascular center |
cardio accelerator center cardio inhibitor center vasomotor center
|
|
what does the cardio accelerator center do |
neurons accelerate heart rate and stroke volume via SYMPATHETIC stimulation
|
|
what node stimulates the cardio accelerator and for what reason |
SA NODE BP low |
|
2nd cardiovascular center |
cardio inhibitor center |
|
what does the cardio inhibitor center do |
neurons decrease heart rate and stroke volume via PARASYMPATHETIC impulses |
|
3rd cardiovvascular center |
vasomotor center |
|
what does the vasomotor center do |
neurons control blood vessel diameter via the smpathetic neverous system, the arteriols |
|
baroreceptors do what |
pressure sensitive sensory neurons, control BP |
|
where are baroreceptors located |
carotid sinuses, aortic arch, RA, IVC,SVC |
|
chemoreceptors do what |
sense and monitor the pH, O2 levels, CO2 levels and speed up the heart |
|
chemoreceptors located |
carotid sinuses and arotic arch |
|
hormones that increase BP |
epinephrine and norepinephrine secreted by the medulla increase BP
renin secreted by kidney |
|
systemic venous circulation: purpose |
to return blood from the rest of the body to the RT heart and lungs
TO ACT AS A STORAGE LOCATION FOR BLOOD UNTIL NEEDED |
|
systemic venous circulation:controls |
1. sympathetic nervous system 2. arterial tone |
|
coronary circulation of the heart: purpose |
to provide a constant supply of O2 rich blood to the myocardium under varying conditions or demands. |
|
when do coronary arteries fill |
during ventricular diastole, while aortic valve is closed |
|
dominance of RCA and LMCA |
depending which one gives rise to the POSTERIOR DESCENDING BRANCH.
85% RCA 15% LMCA |
|
what are the 2 main arteries |
RIGHT MAIN LEFT MAIN |
|
where does the LMCA come off of |
aorta at the level of the sinus of valsalva laterally positioned located at LCC |
|
LMCA bifurcates into |
Left Anterior Descending LAD
Circumflex LCx |
|
RCA comes off where |
aorta at the level of sinus of valsalva located anterior surface of the heart (closer to RT Vent.) positioned RCC |
|
what are the 3 main coronary arteries |
LAD LCx RCA |
|
where does LAD go |
travels down towards anterior aspect of the heart |
|
what does the LAD fed |
ASS anterior walls septal walls apical walls |
|
name important branch of LAD |
perforators |
|
what do the perforators supply BLOOD to |
INTRAVENTRICULAR SEPTUM |
|
perforators give rise to |

|
|
what else might the LAD supply blood to |
a portion of RV apex moderator band SA node 50% of time |
|
what does the Circumflex supply blood to |
Lateral and Posterior walls LP |
|
Circumflex gives rise to |
Obtuse Marginal Branches |
|
2 chamber Inferior wall fed by |
RCA |
|
2 chamber apex and anterior walls fed by |
LAD |
|
3 chamber posterior wall fed by |
