Cardiovascular System Part 2: Heart Anatomy, Circulation, & ECG
Label a heart diagram with the 4 chambers, 4 valves, and 4 major blood vessels. Draw the direction of blood flow through the heart. Label the nodes and Purkinje fibers on a heart diagram Label the wave parts on an ECG. Evaluate an ECG for arrhythmias and identify the cause Explain how blood pressure is produced Cardiovascular System Part 2: Heart Anatomy, Circulation, & ECG Goals: 15.1 Cardiovascular system Heart Pulmonary circuit Pulmonary arteries Pulmonary veins Systemic circuit Aorta Vena Cava 15.2 Pericardium Myocardium Atria (singular: atrium) Ventricles Valves Semilunar Valves Aortic Pulmonary Atrioventricular Valves Tricuspid Bicuspid Coronary artery 15.3 Cardiac cycle Systole Diastole Lubb Dupp Pacemaker cells Sinoatrial (SA) node Atrioventricular (AV) node Purkinje fibers 15.3 (continued) Electrocardiogram (ECG) Depolarization Repolarization P-wave QRS Complex T-wave 15.1 Clinical Application Arrhythmia Bradycardia Tachycardia Fibrillation

Heart Anatomy
3
Heart Anatomy Myocardium= cardiac muscle tissue
Pericardium= tough fibrous sac around the heart
4
Heart Anatomy Heart 4 chambers Left side separate from right side
2 atria Blood storage 2 ventricles 1 low-pressure pump Goes to pulmonary circuit 1 high-pressure pump Goes to systemic circuit Left side separate from right side

Heart Anatomy Coronary Arteries:
Supply blood to the tissues of the heart
9
Circulation Blood circulates in 2 loops
Pulmonary circuit To/from lungs Systemic circuit To/from other tissues Each side of the heart controls flow to either circuit The heart pumps 7,000 liters of blood through the body each day The heart contracts 2.5 billion times in an average lifetime
10
Circulation *know the order & draw it Pulmonary Circuit:
R. atrium R. ventricle Pulmonary arteries Lung capillaries Pulmonary veins Systemic Circuit: L. atrium L. ventricle Aorta Systemic arteries Organ & tissue capillaries Systemic veins Vena cavas Bonus Video: (3.5min)
11
Cardiac Cycle Cardiac Cycle = 1 heartbeat; 1 contraction & 1 relaxation Systole= Ventricle contraction Diastole= Ventricle relaxation Changes in blood pressure opens/closes valves “Lubb-Dupp” sound produced by the closing of AV and semilunar valves respectively.
12
Cardiac Cycle Please note that due to differing operating systems, some animations will not appear until the presentation is viewed in Presentation Mode (Slide Show view). You may see blank slides in the “Normal” or “Slide Sorter” views. All animations will appear after viewing in Presentation Mode and playing each animation. Most animations will require the latest version of the Flash Player, which is available at 12
13
Conduction System Pacemaker cells=
Spontaneously produce action potentials Intercalated discs spread depolarization
14
Conduction System Pacemakers: Sinoatrial (SA) node:
initiates atrial contraction Sends signal from location in the R. atrium through the left atrium Atrioventricular (AV) node: Located in the center The AV node sends the signal down the purkinje fibers Ventricles contract

Animation: Conducting System of the Heart

Conduction System
17
ECG (aka EKG) Electrocardiogram
Evaluates electrical events in the heart Reads a potential difference between electrodes on the skin Measures change in ECF currents, not in individual cells
18
ECG (aka EKG) P-wave= atrial depolarization
QRS-complex= ventricular depolarization (w/atrial repolarization) T-wave= ventricular repolarization
19
ECG
20
ECG (aka EKG) Arrhythmia= Irregular heart rhythms Pacemakers irregular
Detectable by EKGs Ex) Bradychardia – fewer beats/min than average Tachychardia – many more beats/min than average Ventricular fibrillation – haphazard contractions

Atrial Fibrillation:
22
Blood Pressure Blood pressure= pressure exerted by the blood against the vessel walls Normal = 120/80 120: systolic pressure; highest pressure 80: diastolic pressure; lowest pressure

Blood Pressure
