Cardiac Cycle Refers to all of the events from the beginning of one heart beat to the beginning of the ____ heart beat When cardiac muscle contracts it does so as a single unit, creating a heart beat One heartbeat - a cardiac cycle - consists of two parts called _______ and _______

Cardiac Cycle Diastole is the period of time when the heart _________ after contraction Oxygenated blood from the lungs fills the left atrium ____________ blood from other parts of the body fills the right atrium. At the end of the diastole, the atria contract, starting the Systole

Cardiac Cycle The term systole is synonymous with contraction of a muscle. _______ systole is the contraction of the heart muscle of the left and right atria. Both atria contract at the same time, sending blood into the corresponding ventricle ______ systole is the contraction of the muscles of the left and right ventricles, which contract at the same time. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/81/ADN_animation.gif&imgrefurl=http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Human_Physiology/Print_Version&h=313&w=181&sz=1029&hl=en&start=3&um=1&tbnid=PQleQxY_3NWqoM:&tbnh=117&tbnw=68&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dvasoconstriction%2Banimation%26svnum%3D10%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rls%3DGGLB,GGLB:1969-53,GGLB:en%26sa%3DN

Cardiac Cycle During systole the ventricles contract, forcing the blood into the pulmonary artery to be re-oxygenated in the lungs, and into the aorta for systemic distribution of oxygenated blood http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.dpcweb.com/images/medicalconditions/heartattack/circulation%2520of%2520heart_2.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.dpcweb.com/medical/heartdisease/cardiac_cycle.html&h=211&w=150&sz=6&hl=en&start=3&um=1&tbnid=xrFKa5eJUC9IfM:&tbnh=106&tbnw=75&prev=/images%3Fq%3Ddiastole%26svnum%3D10%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rls%3DGGLB,GGLB:1969-53,GGLB:en%26sa%3DN

Cardiac Cycle An electrocardiogram abbreviated as EKG or ECG is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heartbeat or one cardiac cycle. http://www.matthewcwiggins.com/images/animatedheart.gif

Cardiac Conduction System Why don’t the atria and ventricles contract at the same time? Inefficient…. Blood would not be moved in one direction, some would flow backwards http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://acousticheart.com/library/HeartBeatingAnimation.gif&imgrefurl=http://acousticheart.com/learning_heart_and_lung_sounds.html&h=155&w=150&sz=59&hl=en&start=41&um=1&tbnid=XTtO99cxr5BobM:&tbnh=97&tbnw=94&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbeating%2Bheart%2Banimation%26start%3D40%26ndsp%3D20%26svnum%3D10%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rls%3DGGLB,GGLB:1969-53,GGLB:en%26sa%3DN

Cardiac Conduction System Sinoatrial Node (SA node) Located high on the right atrium. ___________ of the heart. Causes the _______ of contractions in the atria. ______ blood into the ventricles

Cardiac Conduction System Atrioventricular Node (AV node) Located in the interatrial septum close to the tricuspid valve Carries the electrical impulse from the SA node to fiber bundles in the ventricles. This causes the ___________ to contract The location of nerve fiber bundles cause the ventricles to contract from the apex (bottom) up squeezing blood up and out

Pathway of Circulation Oxygen-poor blood draining from the body through veins into the superior and inferior vena cava flows to the right atrium, through the tricuspid valve, and into the right ventricle. As the right ventricle contracts, oxygen-poor blood passes through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary arteries and on to the lungs to receive oxygen. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/15/Heart_labelled_large.png

Pathway of Circulation Oxygen-rich blood from the lungs enters the heart through the pulmonary veins, passing into the left atrium. Then through the mitral valve to the left ventricle. Contraction of the left ventricle forces blood through the aortic valve into the aorta. Various arteries branch off from the aorta to supply blood to all parts of the body.

Pathway of Circulation Nutrients pass into tissues Waste products filter back Blood pumped out of heart into arteries, which branch into smaller and smaller vessels until blood flows into capillaries Blood returns to the heart through the veins Heart Capillary network Arteries branch into smaller and smaller vessels (arterioles) They eventually become capillaries, which supply blood to all body parts Capillaries merge into (venuoles) which join into veins and carry blood back to the heart.

Coronary Circulation The coronary circulation consists of the blood vessels that supply blood to, and remove blood from the _____ muscle itself. Although blood fills the chambers of the heart, the muscle tissue of the heart is so thick that it requires coronary blood vessels to deliver blood deep into the myocardium.

Coronary Circulation The vessels that supply blood high in oxygen to the myocardium are known as ________ arteries. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v125/J-Kama-Ka-C/jcian/89bd50cf.jpg http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.fotosearch.com/comp/LIF/LIF125/3D509010.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.fotosearch.com/LIF125/3d509010/&h=300&w=218&sz=19&hl=en&start=66&um=1&tbnid=xw0dlbuUNHVWeM:&tbnh=116&tbnw=84&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dcoronary%2Bvessels%26start%3D60%26ndsp%3D20%26svnum%3D10%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rls%3DGGLB,GGLB:1969-53,GGLB:en%26sa%3DN
