Cardiovascular System
![Page 2: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Heart Actions A. The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both ventricles, (ventricular systole) then the entire heart relaxes for a brief moment (diastole).
![Page 3: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
B. Cardiac Cycle 1. During the cardiac cycle,
pressure within the heart chambers rises and falls with the contraction and relaxation of atria and ventricles.
2. When the atria fill, pressure in the atria is greater than that of the ventricles, which forces the A-V valves open.
![Page 4: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
3. Pressure inside atria rises further as they contract, forcing the remaining blood into the ventricles.
![Page 5: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
4. When ventricles contract, pressure inside them increases sharply, causing A-V valves to close and the aortic and pulmonary valves to open.
a. As the ventricles contract, papillary muscles
contract, pulling on chordae tendinae and preventing the backflow of blood through the A-V valves.

C. Heart Sounds1. Heart sounds are due to
vibrations in heart tissues as blood rapidly changes velocity within the heart.
2. Heart sounds can be described as a "lubb-dupp" sound.
![Page 7: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
3. The first sound (lubb) occurs as ventricles contract and A-V valves are closing.
4. The second sound (dupp) occurs as ventricles relax and aortic and pulmonary valves are closing.

D. Cardiac Conduction System 1. Specialized cardiac muscle tissue
conducts impulses throughout the myocardium and comprises the
cardiac conduction system.2. A self-exciting mass of
specialized cardiac muscle called the sinoatrial node (S-A node or pacemaker), located on the posterior right atrium, generates the impulses for the heartbeat.
![Page 10: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3. Impulses spread next to the atrial syncytium, it contracts, and impulses travel to the junctional fibers leading to the atrioventricular node (A-V node) located in the septum.
a. Junctional fibers are small, allowing the atria to
contract before the impulse spreads rapidly over the ventricles.
![Page 11: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
4. Branches of the A-V bundle give rise to Purkinje fibers leading to papillary muscles; these fibers stimulate contraction of the papillary muscles
at the same time the ventricles contract.

F. Electrocardiogram1. An electrocardiogram is a recording of the electrical changes that occur during a cardiac cycle.2. The first wave, the P wave, corresponds to the depolarization (contraction) of the atria.3. The QRS complex corresponds to the depolarization of ventricles (contraction) and hides the repolarization (relaxation) of atria.

Fast heart; chest pain, Shortness of breath, abnormal pacemaker
Heart rate is less than 60 beats
![Page 24: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Blood pressure
• Systolic (pressure in arteries when ventricles contract) over diastolic (pressure in arteries when ventricles are filling up with blood) pressure
• 120/80 is normal
• Pulse (normal is 60 to 100 beats)-expanding and recoiling of arteries
• Many factors influence blood pressure
![Page 25: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Factor 1: Heart action• Stroke volume-blood leaving the LV with each
contraction– 70 milliliters
• Cardiac output-how much volume pumped from LV in one minute (stroke volume x heart rate)
• Decrease stroke volume-cardiac output and blood pressure decrease
• Increase stroke volume-cardiac output and bp increase
![Page 26: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• An average person has a resting heart rate of 70 beats/minute and a resting stroke volume of 70 mL/beat. The cardiac output for this person at rest is:
Cardiac Output = 70 (beats/min) X 70 (mL/beat) = 4900 mL/minute.
• Average person cycles his/her 5 L of blood each minute at rest.
• Important for heart abnormalities
![Page 27: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Blood volume
• Sum of formed elements and plasma volumes in the vascular system
• Blood pressure is directly proportional to blood volume
• Can change due to dehydration, blood transfusion, hemorrhage
![Page 28: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Peripheral Resistance and blood viscosity
• Peripheral resistance-Force caused by friction between blood and vessel walls
• Blood viscosity-ease of fluid movement– Greater viscosity, harder it is to flow (more
resistance to flow)– More force is needed to push blood through– Factors=temperature (higher temp lower viscosity),
anemia, chronic low oxygen levels so increase in RBC formation
![Page 29: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Control of Blood Pressure• Controlled by cardiac output and peripheral
resistance
• More blood that enters the heart, the stronger the ventricle contracts, greater stroke volume, greater cardiac output
• Factors that control these items– Autonomic nervous system responses – Peripheral resistance
![Page 30: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Basoreceptors
• Located in aortic arch• Arterial blood increases, basoreceptors send nerve
impulse to medulla oblongata• Sends impulse to SA node
– Cause heart rate to decrease– Blood pressure return to normal
• Arterial blood decreases, sends signal to SA node to increase heart work– Exercise, rise in temp, emotions
![Page 31: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Peripheral Resistance• Change in arterioles control this
• Vasoconstriction-increase resistance; blood pressure decreases; constricts and increase resistance– Epinephrine and norepinephrine
• Vasodialation-decrease resistance; blood pressure rises, dialate and decrease resistance– Exercise, increase in carbon dioxide and decrease
in oxygen
![Page 32: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Hypertension
• Hypertension-high blood pressure in arteries– Caused by kidney disease, high sodium intake,
obesity, stress, arteriosclerosis– Lead to enlarged heart due to increase pumping
action of LV– Cause embolism, thrombosis, stroke
![Page 33: Cardiovascular System. Heart Actions A.The cardiac cycle consists of the atria beating in unison (atrial systole) followed by the contraction of both](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032517/56649c985503460f949541e0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Vein Control
• Skeletal muscles-pushes blood to the heart
• Breathing movements
• Vasoconstriction-low pressure causes muscles to contract
