what is the sinus venarum

the site of crista terminals (muscular ridge running vertically between SVC and IVC

right auricle of the right atrium contains

pectinate muscles

the pectinate muscles help increase

force of contraction

pectinate muscles on the right auricle originate from

crista terminalis

fossa ovalis is the site of

foramen ovale (attachment btwn right and left atrium in a fetus)

opening of coronary sinus

thebesian valve

3 sources of O2 poor blood into the R atrium

SVC


IVC


Coronary sinus

the left atrium is smaller than the right atrium but what is different about the walls of it>

thicker and smoother walls

the left atrium and left auricle muscles

no muscle in the L atrium


few pectinate muscles in the L auricle

_________ blood comes into the left atrium through the ________

O2-rich blood


pulmonary VV

right ventricle is thicket than ______

right atrium

ridges within the ventricles

trabeculae carnae

papillary muscles origin, function, & connection

–Muscles on anterior and posteriorventricular walls(2-3) originated from trabeculae carnae




–They are on apex connected to chordae tendon




–Contract to tighten chordae tendonae

3 types of papillary MM

anterior, posterior, septal

what is the function of the chord tendonae

prevent back flow of blood and prevents valve cusps from turning inside out

–isolated band of trabeculae carnae

Moderatorband/Septomarginal trabecula

moderator band forms bridge between

interventricular septum and base of anteriorpapillary m.

what is the function of the moderator band

-Prevents anterior wall of ventricle frompulling too far from interventricular septum–


-Prevents over stretching of ventricle

Area before pulmonary trunk

conus arteriosus (infundibulum)

conus arteriosus is the outflow tract leading to

pulmonary trunk

thickest chamber.

left ventricle

entry way to aorta from left ventricle

aortic vestibule

muscles on the left ventricle

2 setsof papillary muscleswith chordae tendonae

valve that does no depend on chord tendinae

•PulmonarySemilunar valve

pulmonary semilunar valve is between the ____ and ______

–betweenR. ventricle and pulmonary trunk

the semilunar valve outflow _________ blood to ________

–Outflowof oxygen poor blood to pulmonary trunk

cusps of the pulmonary semilunar valve

3 semilunar cusps

valve between L ventricle and ascending aorta

aortic semilunar valve

cusps of the aortic valve

3 semilunar cusps

sinuses of the aortic valve

right, left and posterior aortic sinuses

Other set of valves

atrioventricular valve

Valve between Right atrium and Right venticle

Tricuspid valve

cusps of the tricuspid valve

anterior, posterior, septal

atrioventricular valves depend on

chordae tendonae and papillary muscles

valve between left atrium and left ventricle

bicuspid (mitral) valve

cusps of the bicuspid valve

anterior and posterior

right coronary A comes from

aortic arch

what does the right coronary A supply

right atrium


right ventricle


SA and AV nodes

the right coronary A arises from

right aortic sinus

right coronary A courses under

right auricle into coronary sinus

The right coronary artery emerges from the aorta into the AV groove and continues in the posterior interventricular sulcus. Within millimeters after emerging from the aorta, the right coronary artery gives off two branches:

1) The Conus artery which runs to the right ventricle


2) The atrial branch

the atrial branch gives off the

sinoatrial nodal branch

the right coronary A terminates as

1. marginal A


2. posterior interventricular A

Left coronary A branches from

aortic arch

left coronary A supplies

Left atrium


Left ventricle


interventricular septum

the left coronary A arises from

left aortic sinus

left coronary A courses between

pulmonary trunk and Left auricle into the coronary sulcus

branches of the left coronary A

Anteriorinterventricular A


–diagonalbranches




Circumflexbranch


–L.marginal a.

coronary sinus is on what surface of the heart

posterior

function of coronary sinus

collecting pool of venous blood

coronary sinus empties into

right atrium

valve of the coronary sinus

thebesian valve at base of IVC

4 main tributaries of the coronary sinus

1. Great cardiac vein


2. Middle cardiac vein


3. Small cardiac vein


4. Posterior cardiac vein

great cardiac V ascends the ______ sulcus

anterior interventricular sulcus with artery

middle cardiac V and posterior cardiac V ascends the _______ sulcus

posterior interventricular sulcus with artery

small cardiac V courses with

marginal A

posterior cardiac V lies left of

middle cardiac V

lymphatics of the heart drain into

trachiobronchial and brachiocephalic nodes

cardiac plexus has sympathetic and parasympathetic contributions. what do each do to the heart?

sympathetic: increase heart rate and force of contraction, dilation of coronary A


parasympathetic: decreases heart rate and force of contraction, constriction of coronary A

superficial part of the cardiac plexus is beneath or inferior to

aortic arch

deep part of the cardiac plexus lives between

aortic arch and carina

visceral afferents of the heart enter CNS via

sympathetic trunk and Vagus N
