Cardiovascular Review
1. The space betwee the visceral & parietal pericardium is called the… Visceral pericardium Periotoneal pericardium Pericardial space endocardium
2. This is the middle layer of the heart wall. Endocardium Pericardium Epicardium myocardium
3. To contract means to be in… Relaxation Diastole Systole None of the above
4. After the blood leaves the right atrium, it travels to the Left atrium Rest of the body Lungs aorta
5. What is the largest vein in the body? Aorta Aortic arch Vena cava heart
6. What is the longest vein in the body? Aorta Vena cava Deep saphenous vein Jugular vein
7. What artery supplies the brain with blood? Aorta Superior vena cava Jugular vein Carotid artery
8. This is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. Tricuspid valve Bicupsid valve Aortic valve Mitral valve
9. This clears clogged arteries, usually with a balloon device. Bypass surgery Angioplasty Arrhythmia stent
10. This condition occurs when the walls of affected arteries harden and lose their elasticity. Atheroschlerosis Arterioscherosis Myocardial infarction Cerebral hemmorrhage
11. Atrial contraction corresponds to the P wave Q wave R wave S wave

13. What structure is considered the pacemaker of the heart? SA node AV node AV bundle Bundle of His
14. When the diameter of the blood vessel increases, it is termed… Vasoconstriction Vasodilation Angioplasty flutter
15. Uncoordinated, cardiac chaos in the ventricles is often called Atrial fibrillation Atrial flutter Ventricular flutter Ventricular fibrillation
16. Cardiac output is Volume discharged from left ventricle per heartbeat Volume discharged from left ventricle per minute Number of times the heart beats per minute Is often measure in bpm
17. If stroke volume increases, blood pressure will Decrease Stay the same It will not have any effect
18. If heartrate increases, blood pressure will Decrease Stay the same It will not have any effect
19. If blood viscosity increases, blood pressure will Decrease Stay the same It will not have any effect
20. If peripheral resistance increases, blood pressure will Decrease Stay the same It will not have any effect
21. How can one control their blood pressure? Control peripheral resistance and heart action Control cardiac output and blood viscosity Control cardiac output (exercise) and peripheral resistance (healthy diet) Control cardiac output (healthy diet) and peripheral resistance (exercise)
