Cardiac Physiology

Cardiovascular System

• Blood Vessels (series of tubes)

• Heart (Pump)

Blood

• Blood cells

– Erythrocytes (red blood cells)

• Carry oxygen bound to hemoglobin

– Platelets cell fragments

• Aid in blood clotting

• Plasma

– Liquid portion of blood

Blood Vessels (Vasculature)

• Vessels transporting blood away from heart:

• Arteries (big)

• Arterioles (small)

• Capillaries (smallest)

• Vessels transporting blood to heart:

o Venules (small)

o Veins (big)

Heart

• Four chambers: left and right atria, left and right ventricles

• Two separate pumps next to each other (separated by septum)

• Left heart (left atrium and left ventricle):

– Supplies blood to systemic circuit (body)

• Right heart (right atrium and right ventricle)

– Supplies blood to pulmonary circuit (lungs)

Anatomy of the heart

PDA: Patent Ductus Arteriosus

• Ductus Arteriosus is a duct that connects the aorta and the pulmonary artery

in embryonic development. Normally closes shortly after birth.

• Patent means open. )n some individuals, this duct never closes, resulting

in mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. Fairly common in

premature babies.

• Leads to shortness of breath and stunted growth and can lead to congestive

heart failure later in life.

Path of Blood Flow

• Pulmonary Circuit

– Blood vessels in lungs

– Blood vessels connecting lungs to heart

– Systemic Circuit

– Blood vessels in the rest of the body

• Blood flows from pulmonary circuit to systemic circuit (circuits are in series)

Series flow through pulmonary and systemic circuits

Heart Valves

• Opening and closing controlled by pressure differences between chambers

• Allow unidirectional blood flow

• Two sets:

2. What are the functions of the elastic fibers that are foundin the walls of ateries? (there may be more than one answer)

Select one or more:

a. they allow the artery to stretch and then recoil back to itsoriginal shape as blood is forcegully pumped from the heart intothe arteries

b. they allow arteries to lengthen as the volume of blood in thearteries increase

c. they help maintain a steady blood pressure during thedifferent phases of heart contraction

d. they smooth out the walls of the arteries to preventturbulent blood flow

3. Which of the following are functions of the lymphatic system?(there may be more than one answer)

Select one or more:

a. help fight infections and cancer

4. Which of the following blood vessels bring newly oxygenatedblood from the blood vessels in the lungs back to the heart so thatthe heart can pump it to the rest of the body?

Select one:

d. pulmonary artery

5. Which of the following mechanisms help blood fight gravity sothat, for instance, it can return from blood vessels in your feetback into your heart? (there may be more than one answer)

Select one or more:

a. breathing allows the pressure in your chest to decrease andallow blood to flow up towards your heart

b. as you walk, the skeletal muscles in your legs contract andsqueeze the veins; since veins have valves, blood flows up anddoesn't backflow back down
