Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Review Blood Flow
3
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Coronary Circulation Blood in the heart chambers does not nourish the myocardium (heart muscle) 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 where all of the cardiac veins come together on the posterior of the heart, receives blood from cardiac veins
4
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Coronary Circulation Blood empties into the right atrium via the coronary sinus Blood from the heart enters the coronary arteries through a branch at the base of the aorta.
5
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Coronary Circulation Angina pectoris: -Chest pain due to inadequate supply of oxygen to the muscle -Indication some degree of coronary vessels blockage Myocardial infarction: - Medical term for heart attack -Heart cells die from lack of blood supply -Usually caused by blockage of one of the coronary arteries

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Heart: Conduction System Intrinsic conduction system (nodal system) Heart muscle cells contract, without nerve impulses, they use nodes http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xhp35u_argosy- medical-animation-sectioned-heart_tech Heart beat sounds: “lub dub” Sounds are made by the closing of the valves Lub is the AV valves closing Dub is the SA valves closing
7
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Heart: Conduction System Special tissue: Sinoatrial node = SA node (“pacemaker”), in right atrium Atrioventricular node = AV node, at junction of the right atrium near the interatrial septum Atrioventricular bundle = AV bundle in the interventricular septum Bundle branches in the interventricular septum Purkinje fibers spread within the ventricle wall muscles
8
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings SA node (sino-atrial node) acts as the heart’s “pacemaker” cells whose primary function is electrical conduction, not contractility the action potential produced by its depolarization spreads across the atria (remember that action potential is the movement of molecules across the membranes of cells to create electrical current)
9
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Heart Contractions Impulse spreads to the AV node Then the atria contract impulse passes through the AV bundle, bundle branches, and Purkinje fibers the ventricles contract

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Heart: Cardiac Cycle The cardiac cycle refers to 1 complete heart beat Normally.8 sec for 1 cardiac cycle Cardiac cycle includes: Systole = contraction Diastole = relaxation Relates to the ventricles, unless otherwise stated
13
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Heart Contractions Normal Heart Rate: 75 beats/min Tachycardia—rapid heart rate over 100 beats per minute (tachy= fast) Bradycardia—slow heart rate less than 60 beats per minutes (brady= slow)

15
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Heart: Cardiac Cycle Cardiac cycle—events of one complete heart beat Mid-to-late diastole—blood flows from atria into ventricles Ventricular systole—blood pressure builds before ventricle contracts, pushing out blood Early diastole—atria finish refilling, ventricular pressure is low http://highered.mcgraw- hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chap ter22/animation__the_cardiac_cycle__quiz_1_. html
