Heart chapter 13
angioplasty
Ballon surgery
Pulmonary valve is located
Between right ventricle and pulmonary trunk
mitral valve located
Between the left atrium and left ventricle
Lack of this causes condition
Blood supply
The sound 1 occurs when
Both tricuspid and bicuspid valves close
pericarditis
Inflammation of the outer layer of the heart
Pulmonary arteries deliver blood to
Left and right lungs
Blood passes from the left atrium into the
Left ventricle
Aortic valve opens when
Left ventricle contracts
Mitral valve prolapse
May be related to stress
dilates blood vessels
Nitroglycerin
Mitral valve function
Prevent back flow of blood in the left atrium
Maintain blood pressure and weight
Prevention
two upper chambers of the heart are
Right and Left Atrium
two lower chambers of the heart are
Right and Left Ventricle
Pulmonary valve opens when
Right ventricle contracts
Pulmonary and aortic valves are also called
Semilunar valves because of their strucute
pulmonary circulation
Sends oxygen depleted blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen and unload carbon dioxide.
systemic circulation
Sends oxygen rich blood and nutrients to the body cells and removes waste
Pulmonary trunk divides into
left and right pulmonary arteries
Pulmonary veins carry blood to the
left atrium and lungs
pericardial cavity is
location of the heart between the right and left lungs.
middle layers of the heart wall is the
myocardium
Tricusipid valve functions to
prevent back flow of blood in the right Atrium
right ventricle pumps blood into
pulmonary trunk
The tricuspid valve is located
right Atrium and Right Ventricle
right ventricle receives blood from
right atrium
Count should below 200
Cholesterol
Dyspnea
Difficulty breathing
Aortic valve is located
between left ventricle and aorta
Tiredness
Fatigue
To listen to the heart sounds, place the stethoscope between the
Fifth and sixth ribs, middle of left clavicle
The cardiovascular system consists of
Heart and blood vessels
Another name for myocardial infarction
Heart attack
The recommended rate of chest compressions in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (cpr) is
100 per minute.
Average size of an adult heart is generally
14cm long and 9cm wide
If the blood flow to the brain ceases to the brain for 5 to 10 seconds, the muscles will start to twitch convulsively within.
15-20 seconds.
The heart pumps 5 quarts of blood per minute. The amount of blood pumped in 1.5 hours is
450 quarts.
The heart pumps approximately ________ liters of blood each day.
7
The average heart rate is
70-80 beats per minute.
Surgical treatment
Angioplasty
Therapy to dissolve clots
Anticoagulant
The left ventricle pumps blood into
Aorta
loss of elasticity of arterial walls
Arteriosclerosis
Plaque build up in arterial walls
Atherosclerosis
tricuspid and mitral are called
Av valves because they are positioned between the Atria and ventricles
The SA node sends an electrical impulse to the atria causes them to
Depolarize
cardiotonic
Digititalis
Diuretic
Drug that reduces amount of fluid
Bed rest, oxygen, and medication
Treatment
myocardium is composed of
connective muscle tissue
pericardium is
connective tissue that surrounds and protects the heart.
cardiotonic
drug that increases the strength of the heart contractions
three layers of the heart wall are
epicardium, myocardium, endocardium.
serous fluid is
friction
the right atrium receives blood from the
inferior and superior Vena Cava
