What are the four coronary arteries branching off the aorta?
1. posteriorinterventricular artery
2. Marginal Artery
3.Circumflex artery
4.Anterior interventricular artery
what percent of blood enters the coronary artery?
4%
what are the three major coronary veins?
1. small cardiac vein
2. middle cardiac vein
3. Great cardiac vein
What is the weight percentage of the heart?
0.5%
What is the oxygen demand for the heart?
10%
What is an angiogram?
Technique used to visualize the inside of blood vessels.
Ischemia
Blood (oxygen) deficiency in a branch of the coronary artery , often due to blockage from an embolus.
Angina pectoris
Chest pain that often accompanies ischemia
Myocardial infarction
(Heart Attack) Death to a portion of the heart due to ischemia.
Cardioacceleratory center
>Where?
>What type of nerve fibers leave this region?
Medulla Oblongata
Sympathetic nerve fibers to spinal cord to accelerator nerves
Cardioinhibitory center
>Where?
>What type of nerve fibers leave this region?
Medulla Oblongata
Parasympathetic nerve fibers to vagus nerve
Diastole
Relaxation
Systole
Contracting
Atrial systole (2)
*S-A nodes fires
* right and left atrium valves are opened letting blood from atrium rush to ventricles.
ventricular systole (2)
*Semilunar Valves open and blood rush out of ventricles
*Ventricles Relax
Atrial Diastole
Atria are relaxed, ventricles contract pumping blood into lungs and body.
AV valves are closed and semilunar valves are open
Cardiac output
Amount of blood pumped from left ventricle to aorta per minute
=stroke volumeXbeats/minute
Stroke volume
amount of blood pumped from left ventricle to aorta PER HEART BEAT
Approximately= 70-90 ml
Beats per minute
approximately 75
Auscultation
Act of listening to heart sounds
Murmurs
Turbulance due to damaged vavles
Stenosis
Incomplete opening of heart valve
Insufficiency
Incomplete closer of heart vavle
Heart rate factor:
Temperature
*Increased temperature increase heart rate
*decreased temperature decreased heart rate
Heart rate Factor:
Gender
Males: Slightly lower
Females: Slightly higher
Heart Rate Factor:
Emotion
* Fear and anger (epinephrine) Increase HR
*Grief - Decrease HR
Aortic Aneurysm
Weakness in wall of artery
Lub Dub sound
Lub#1- Av Valves Close
Dub#2- Semilunar valves Close
