The Heart
![Page 2: The Heart. Function Transportation system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away. Also carries substances](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfb91a28abf838ca0114/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Function
• Transportation system by which oxygen
and nutrients reach the body's cells, and
waste materials are carried away.
• Also carries substances called hormones,
which control body processes, and
antibodies to fight invading germs.

Parts of the Circulatory System
• Divided into three major parts:
– The Heart
– The Blood
– The Blood Vessels

Circulation
• Two parts
• Heart acts as double pump
– Blood from the right side pump is dark red
and low in oxygen (oxygen-poor)
• Travels through pulmonary arteries to lungs where
it gets fresh oxygen and becomes bright red
– Blood from lungs through pulmonary veins
back to the heart's left side pump
• Pumped out into the body

3 Kinds of Circulation:
• Pulmonary circulation
– Movement of blood from the heart, to the lungs,
and back to the heart again
• Coronary circulation
– Movement of blood through the tissues of the
heart
• Systemic circulation
– Supplies nourishment to all of the tissue located
throughout the body, except for the heart and
lungs

The Heart’s Role in Blood Circulation
• Systemic circulation
– Blood flows from the left side of the heart
through the body tissues and back to the right
side of the heart
• Pulmonary circulation
– Blood flows from the right side of the heart to
the lungs and back to the left side of the heart

Cardiac Circulation
• Blood in the heart chambers does not nourish the myocardium
• The heart has its own nourishing circulatory system consisting of
– Coronary arteries—branch from the aorta to supply the heart muscle with oxygenated blood
– Cardiac veins—drain the myocardium of blood
– Coronary sinus—a large vein on the posterior of the heart, receives blood from cardiac veins
• Blood empties into the right atrium via the coronary sinus

The Heart
• Location
– Thorax between the lungs in the inferior
mediastinum
• Orientation
– Pointed apex directed toward left hip
– Base points toward right shoulder
• About the size of your fist

The Heart: Coverings• Pericardium—a double-walled sac– Fibrous pericardium is loose and superficial
– Serous membrane is deep to the fibrous pericardium and composed of two layers• Visceral pericardium
– Next to heart; also known as the epicardium
• Parietal pericardium – Outside layer that lines the inner surface
of the fibrous pericardium
– Serous fluid fills the space between the layers of pericardium

The Heart: Wall
• Three layers
– Epicardium
• Outside layer
• This layer is the
visceral pericardium
• Connective tissue
layer
–Myocardium
• Middle layer
• Mostly cardiac
muscle
– Endocardium
• Inner layer
• Endothelium

The Heart: Chambers
• Right and left side act as separate pumps
• Four chambers– Atria• Receiving (top) chambers– Right atrium– Left atrium
– Ventricles• Discharging (bottom) chambers– Right ventricle– Left ventricle

The Heart: Septum
• Interventricular septum
– Separates the two ventricles
• Interatrial septum
– Separates the two atria

The Heart: Valves
• Allow blood to flow in only one direction to prevent backflow
• Four valves
– Atrioventricular (AV) valves—between atria and ventricles
• Bicuspid (mitral) valve (left side of heart)
• Tricuspid valve (right side of heart)
– Semilunar valves—between ventricle and artery
• Pulmonary semilunar valve
• Aortic semilunar valve
![Page 23: The Heart. Function Transportation system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away. Also carries substances](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfb91a28abf838ca0114/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• AV valves – Anchored in place by chordae tendineae
(“heart strings”)– Open during heart relaxation and closed
during ventricular contraction
• Semilunar valves– Closed during heart relaxation but open
during ventricular contraction
• Notice these valves operate opposite of one another to force a one-way path of blood through the heart

Heart Sounds
• Heart sounds are made by the valves as they open and close
• Valves control flow of blood from one chamber to another
• Prevent backflow

The Heart: Associated Great Vessels• Arteries
– Aorta• Leaves left ventricle
– Pulmonary arteries• Leave right ventricle
• Veins– Superior and inferior venae cavae
• Enter right atrium
– Pulmonary veins (four)• Enter left atrium

Blood Flow Through the Heart
• Superior and inferior venae cavae dump blood into the right atrium
• From the right atrium, through the tricuspid valve, blood travels to the right ventricle
• From the right ventricle, blood leaves the heart as it passes through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary trunk
• Pulmonary trunk splits into right and left pulmonary arteries that carry blood to the lungs
![Page 28: The Heart. Function Transportation system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away. Also carries substances](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfb91a28abf838ca0114/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Oxygen is picked up and carbon dioxide is dropped off by blood in the lungs
• Oxygen-rich blood returns to the heart through the four pulmonary veins
• Blood enters the left atrium and travels through the bicuspid valve into the left ventricle
• From the left ventricle, blood leaves the heart via the aortic semilunar valve and aorta

How does the Heart work?
blood from the body
blood from the lungs
The heart beat begins when the heart muscles relax and blood flows into the atria.
STEP ONE
![Page 30: The Heart. Function Transportation system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away. Also carries substances](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfb91a28abf838ca0114/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The atria then contract and the valves open to allow blood into the ventricles.

STEP TWO
![Page 31: The Heart. Function Transportation system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away. Also carries substances](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfb91a28abf838ca0114/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
How does the Heart work?
The valves close to stop blood flowing backwards.
The ventricles contract forcing the blood to leave the heart.
At the same time, the atria are relaxing and once again filling with blood.The cycle then repeats itself.
STEP THREE
![Page 32: The Heart. Function Transportation system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away. Also carries substances](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfb91a28abf838ca0114/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Heart Beats (Lub Dub)
• Sinoatrial (SA) Node
– Group of cells on the wall of the right atrium
near the entrance of the superior vena cava
– “Pacemaker” of the heart
• Atrioventricular (AV) Node
– Electrically connects the atria and ventricles
– Signals go from the SA Node through the
Purkinje fibers allowing the ventricles to
contract
