Objective Five: Explain why the heart is termed the "double pump." Contrast this description to the actual action of the atria and ventricles as functional units.

Although it is easier to see working on one side of the heart at a time, in reality both the right AND left sides of the heart are working (almost) simultaneously.

S-T Elevation

An upward drift of the ECG during indicating early ventricular repolarization, often due to a myocardial infarction

Murmur

Any time blood is moving around in the heart in a way it shouldn't (VSDs, ASDs, mitral valve prolapse, aortic stenosis)

Arythmia

Any time there is an abnormal sinus pattern (basically if one of the other nodes is contracting faster than the SA node)

Autonomic regulation of heart rate is via two reflex centers found in the pons True/False

False

Increasing end-diastolic and end-systolic volume will increase stroke volume True/False

False

Tachycardia/Bradycardia

Increase in HR/decrease in HR

Pathway of Blood through the Heart (Objective Four)

Inferior and Superior Vena Cava ---> R. Atrium ---> Tricuspid Valve ---> R. Ventricle ---> Semilunar Valve ---> Pulmonary Artery (Deoxygenated Blood) ---> Lungs --->R. and L. Pulmonary Veins (Oxygenated Blood) ---> L. Atrium ---> Mitral (Bicuspid) Valve ---> L. Ventricle ---> Aortic Valve ---> Aorta ---> Brachiocephilac Trunk, Left Common Carotid Artery, and Left Subclavian Artery

Endocardium (Objective Two)

Innermost layer of the heart wall; lines heart chambers and covers the valves

Coronary Circulation (Objective Seven)

-Left Coronary Artery: runs toward the left side of the heart and divides into two major branches: -Anterior Interventricular Artery: supplies interventricular sulcus and anterior walls of both ventricles; "The Widowmaker" -Cicrumflex Artery: supplies the left atrium and the posterior walls of the left ventricle -Right Coronary Artery: courses to the right side of the heart and divides into two major branches: -Right Marginal Artery: Serves the myocardium of the lateral side of the heart -Posterior Interventricular Artery: Runs to heart apex and supplies the posterior ventricular walls

Coronary Circulation and Disease (Objective Seven)

-Myocardial Infarction- e.g. heart attack; plaque buildup in the artery blocking blood flow and O2 to the heart -Angina- A type of chest pain, pressure, or discomfort; heart is not receiving enough oxygen due to narrowed coronary artery -Ischemia- inadequate blood supply to heart muscles

EKG Pattern

-P Wave: Movement of current from SA node through atria (atrial depolarization) -0.1 s after P wave begins, atria contract -Q Wave: Movement of ventricular excitation; not typically visible -QRS Complex- Ventricular depolarization begins at apex; atrial repolarization. Duration of QRS is determined by the time required for each ventricle to depolarize, which is determined by relative size. Usually 0.08s. -T Wave: Ventricular repolarization. Usually 0.16 s -P-R Interval: time from the beginning of atrial excitation to the beginning of ventricular excitation. -S-T segment: when the action potentials of the ventricular myocytes are in their plateau phrases, the entire ventricular myocardium is depolarized.
