chest pain the results from transient ischemia brought on by exertion
Angina pectoris
angina pectoris is due to
reduced blood flow because of narrowing of artery
angina pectoris
is substernal pain that may be referred over the ___
dermatomes
T1 -T5
T1 dermatome int he medial aspect of the left arm and forearm may be felt over the
cervical dermatomes in the neck up to level of the angle of the mandible
results from localized avascular necrosis of cardiac cells caused by prolonged ischemia
myocardial infarction
common site of occlusion for MI
anterior interventricular artery
difference of angina pectoris and MI
angina pectoris - tightness/ squeezing pain precipitated by stress or exertion
MI- more severe pain, not relieved by rest
Nerve supply of the heart
ANS via the cardiac plexuses
Sympathetic - cervical and upper thoracic
Parasympathetic - vagus nerve
As a pathologist, you are examining the heart of a victim of fatal trauma and note a tear at the junction of SVC and right atrium. This tear would likely damage the
Sinoatrial node
pacemaker of the heart
SA node
SA node is located
within atrial wall on right side of its junction with Superior vena cava
right/left bundle branches are located at
muscular portion of interventricular septum
V1 placement
4th ICS just to the right of sternum
V2 placement
4th ICS just to the left of the sternum
V3 placement
midway between V2 and V4
V4 placement
midclavicular line, 5th ICS
V5 placemement
anterior axillary line, 5th ICS
V6 placement
midaxillary line, 5th ICS
right atrium receives blood from
SVC, IVC, coronary sinus, anterior cardiac vein, vena cordis minimae
The following veins drain into right atrium EXCEPT? A. coronay sinus B. Superior vena cava C. Anterior cardiac D. Great cardiac
D.Great cardiac
internal wall of right atrium is composed of
sinus venarum (posterior) musculi pectinati (anterior)
fossa ovalis is remnant of
foramen ovale
if foramen ovale persists after birth it leads to
ASD
Atrial septal defect
internal surface of right ventricle has irregular muscular ridges called
trabeculae carnae
