  • Front
  • Back
what happens in a systolic dysfunction
the heart fails to pump
INABILITY TO EMPTY THE BLOOD
what happens in a diastolic dysfunction
stiff ventricles fill w/ less blood than normal

INABILITY TO FILL B/C VENTRICLES WON'T PROPERLY RELAX
what increases and decreases in systolic dysfunction
EDV increases
SV is normal
Ejection fraction decreases
what increases and decreases in diastolic dysfunction
EDV decreases
SV decreases
Ejection fraction doesn't change (this is because the amount of blood pumped out has decreased)
what is the majority of heart failure
systolic
who doesn't have a cardiac reserve
people w/ heart failure
what happens to the valves in stenosis
they don't open properly
what happens to the valves in regurgitation
they don't close properly
what prevents back flow in systole
AV valve
what prevents back flow during diastole
semilunar valve
when do you hear the 1st heart sound (lub)
when the AV valve closese at the end of diastole
when do you hear the 2nd heart sound (dub)
when the semilunar valve closes at the end of systole
what causes abnormal heart sounds
ventricular lesions (valves not working properly)
what are reasons that ventricular lesions may occur
congenital defects (birth defects)
streptococcal infection (rheumatic fever) - this may cause calcification/fibrosis of the valves causing them to close/open improperly
what are the results of valve damage
stenosis of the valve - valve gets narrowed and doesn't open properly

destruction of valve - may lead to regurgitation/insufficiency (valve doesn't close properly)
what happens in Aortic stenosis
aortic valve doesn't open properly
what kind of murmur is heard during Aortic stenosis
systolic murmur heard between S1 and S2
what is Aortic stenosis
the aortic valve is suppose to be open during systole but it opens only narrowly, forcing blood to gush through a small opening
what type of dysfunction is Aortic stenosis
systolic (inability to empty)
what happens to the ventricles during Aortic stenosis
left ventricle hypertrophy due to the increased pressure the ventricle has to work @ in order to pump blood through the narrow opening and into the aorta
how can ventriclular hypertrophy occur
it occurs when the ventricle has too much pressure or to high of a volume of blood
what is the pressure in a ventricle undergoing Aortic stenosis
normal pressure 120
new pressure 300
what pressure is transfered to the blood in Aortic stenosis
only 120 eventhough the ventricle is working @ a pressure of 300
what happens in Aortic regurgitation
aortic valve doesn't close properly
what kind of murmur is heard in Aortic regurgitation
diastolic murmur b/c during diastole the aortic valve should be closed but as a result there is blood leaking back in
what kind of dysfunction is Aortic regurgitation
systolic dysfunction
where does blood come from in Aortic regurgitation
blood comes from the atria (av valve) and the aortic valve due to the aortic valve not properly closing and allowing blood to leak back into the ventricle
when does Aortic regurgitation occur
when the ventricle is relaxing
does hypertrophy occur in Aortic regurgitation and if so why
left ventricular hypertrophy occurs due to the increased volume of blood coming back into the ventricle (get 250 ml instead of normal 100ml)
what occurs in Mitral regurgitation
during systole the mitral valve should be closed and blood should flow from the ventricle into the aorta but in Mitral regurgitation the mitral valve isn't properly closed causing blood to go from the ventricle into the atria and also the aorta

BLOOD GOES BACK INTO THE ATRIA B/C PRESSURE GOES FROM HIGH TO LOW AND THE PRESSURE IN THE VENTRICLE IS HIGHER THAN THE ATRIA
what kind of murmur is heard in Mitral regurgitation
systolic murmur
what kind of dysfunction is Mitral regurgitation
systolic dysfunction b/c instead of emptying blood into the aorta only, some blood is also pumped into the atria
what kind of hypertrophy occurs in Mitral regurgitation
left atria hypertrophy and left ventricular hypertrophy due to the increased volume in both the atria and ventricle
what occurs in Mitral stenosis
mitral valve doesn't open well

normally during diastole mitral valve is opened and all the blood in the atria is pumped into the ventricle, but since the valve isn't properly opening the blood is forced to gush through the narrow opening
what kind of murmur occurs in Mitral stenosis
diastolic murmur
what kind of dysfunction occurs in Mitral stenosis
diastolic dysfunction
what kind of hypertrophy occurs in Mitral stenosis
in true mitral stenosis only left atria hypertrophy occurs due to the large amount of volume of blood

left ventricular hypertrophy is not associated w/ Mitral stenosis
what valve lessions does a decrease in CO occur
Mitral stenosis
Mitral regurgitation
Aortic stenosis
Aortic regurgitation
what is hypertrophy in the heart
enlargement of the noncontractile parts of the heart
why is hypertrophy of the heart bad
a dilated heart is more prone to dysrhythmia/fibrilation due to the re-entry phenomenom
what happens to the cardiac reserve of people with valvelar lessions
they have a low cardiac reserve and can only take a low work load during exercise
what is Patent Ductus Arteriosus
this occurs after a child is born and the duct between the Aorta and the Pulmonary Artery should be closed but for some reason it is not and as a result the oxygenated blood from the Aorta is being pumped into the Pulmonary Artery b/c the aorta works at a higher pressure, causing the already oxygenated blood to get oxygenated again
what removes the Ductus Arteriousus in new borns
the back flow of blood from the high pressure aorta to the low pressure pulmonary artery
what murmur is heard in Patent Ductus Arteriosus
systolic and diastolic
what happens to the CO of kids with Patent Ductus Arteriosus
their CO decreases because some of the oxygenated blood from the aorta flows back into the pulmonary artery and gets oxygenated again
