1
The Cardiovascular System “A muscular pump equipped with one- way valves and a system of large and small plumbing tubes within which the blood travels.” = pump = pump = plumbing tubes = plumbing tubes
2
Early development of the heart and circulatory system 2 weeks post-conception-2 weeks post-conception- 3 weeks-3 weeks- 4 weeks-4 weeks- By week 8-By week 8-
3
During this period the fetal heart is at great risk from agents that may cause congenital defects. RUBELLA
4
FETAL CIRCULATION Before birth- Umbilical Vessels- 1. one 1. one 2. two 2. two
5
To bypass the liver Umbilical vein ductus venosus inferior vena cava right atrium -> uumuum
6
To bypass the lungs Right Atrium Foramen Ovale Left Atrium Left Ventricle Aorta Body (majority of blood) (majority of blood)Or Right Atrium Right Ventricle Pulmonary Trunk Ductus Arteriosis Aorta Body
7
At birth or shortly thereafter ligamentum arteriosum ligamentum arteriosum

2. Coverings and wall of the heart a. covered by double sac- PERICARDIUM Parietal Pericardium (pericardial fluid) Visceral Pericardium (outer layer heart) Myocardium Endocardium b. Layers of Heart Wall

C. Chambers of the Heart Two receiving chambers-Two receiving chambers- Two discharging chambers (pumps)-Two discharging chambers (pumps)- Right and left side separated by the – SEPTUMRight and left side separated by the – SEPTUM a. upper septum = b. lower septum = Atrium- Right Ventricle- Left Ventricle-

24
SA node () to the Atrial myocardium () to the AV node () to the AV bundle to the Bundle branches to the Purkinje fibers followed by Ventricular contraction ()
25
Electrocardiography “When impulses travel through the heart, electrical currents are generated that spread throughout the body. These impulses can be detected on the body surface and recorded with an electrocardiograph.
26
Electrocardiogram- recording that traces the flow of current through the heart.

28
Cardiac Output- CO = Heart rate X Stroke Volume stroke volume- CO = 75 bpm X 70 ml/beat CO = 5250 ml/min (average)
29
What factors affect cardiac output?
