Q

what is the anotomical orientation of the heart in an axial CT picture of the heart

A

remember radiographs are from fee to head! therefore the right atrium would be far to the left of the picture, and the right ventricle would be superior to that and the most superior. the left atrium would be the most posterior, and the left ventricle would be the larges section to the farthest right of the image.

Q

what is the purpose of the fibrous pericardium? (outside layer)

A

to attach to the diaphragm and prevent the heart from over-filling.

33
Q

how is the Serous pericardium unique in its morphalogy

A

it is actually folded up on itself so that it creates two layers (outer parietal layer and inner Visceral layer.)

34
Q

where is the fibrous layer paricardium

A

surounding the heart, it is the outside fiberous layer of the serous membranes.

35
Q

what lies between the two inside layers of serous membrane of the paricardium

A

The pericardial space, filled with pericardial fluid.

36
Q

What three methods exist for blood entering the right side of the heart?

A

Superior vena cava from the lower half of the body, Inferior vena cava from the lower half, and the coronary sinus that returns coronary blood.

37

A

Tricuspid valve.

38
Q

what brings blood back from the lungs

pulmanary viens.

mitral valve left AV vilve

40
Q

what part of the heart touches the sternum?

A

A

the apex of the left ventricle

42
Q

what part of the heart touches the esophagus

A

the left atrium

43
Q

what are the caval veins

A

the IVC and SVC

44
Q

how do the large valves of the heart avoid undergoing prolapse during systolie

A

the papilary muscles pull on the chordae tendinae to prevent the cusps of the valve from opening in the wrong direction

45
Q

how can the coronary arteries identify the aorta?

A

The right coronary artery and the left coronary arteries come off of the aorta, while there are no small vessels off of the pulmonary arteries.

46
Q

why does the heart need its own circulatory system?

A

the force velocity of the blood and the thickness of the muscles prevents the blood from oxygenating the heart form the inside.

47
Q

why are coronary arteries considered end arteries?

A

supply with out overlap or anastomoses from other arteries. (there is no retrograde flow)

48
Q

what event(s) would lead to ischemia of heart muscle cells

A

this is cell death and could be caused by lack of blood flow due to a heart attack (coronary, cardiac arrest, or myocardial infarction)

49
Q

where is the opening for the right coronary artery

A

the right anterior cusp of the aortic valve.

50
Q

where does the right coronary artery course

A

from the aortic valve around the right atrium to the back of the heart. (like a crown)

51
Q

where does the SA nodal go and where

A

it goes from the begging of the right coronary artery and dives under the adipose, over the top of the right atrium to the SA node.

52
Q

where does the right marginal artery go?

A

it is right and courses along the right margin. (it is also called the acute marginal artery after the acute angle with the right coronary artery

53
Q

where is the posterior descending artery

A

the PDA is near the end of the right coronary artery and courses down the septum between the right and left ventricles in the back (also called the posterior inter ventricular artery

54
Q

what is coronary dominance?

A

defined by which coronary artery gives rise to the PDA. Mostly right dominant! some time left and very small chance it is co-dominant

55
Q

where is the crux of the heart?

A

the intersection of the PDA and the coronary artery

56
Q

what is located at the crux at the heary

A

AV nodal arery, and goes to the AV node

57
Q

left coronary artery

A

This is very short and biforcates into the LAD and the LCX soon after leaving the heart from the Left anterior cusp of the aortic valve.

58
Q

what is the heart’s LAD

A

left anterior descending artery. it is also called the anterior interventricular artery.

59
Q

what is the heart’s LCX

A

the left circumflex artery it is the left curving artery around the left coronary sulcus,

60
Q

what is the L. Marginal artery.

A

branch from the LCX that is also the obtuse marginal artery.

61
Q

what are the three divisions of cardiac veins?

A

Great, middle, and small cardiac veins

62
Q

where do all of the viens of the cardiac system lead?

A

to the coronary sinus

63
Q

describe the path of the great cardiac vein

A

arises from the apex of the heart and courses along the anterior interventicular septum, then around the coronary sulcus and into the sinus. parallels the LAD and drains the left coronary arterie

64
Q

Middle cardiac vein

A

up the posterior interventicular septum, and then to the coronary sinus.

65
Q

small cardiac viens

A

arise on the right ventricle and feed into the coronary sinus

66
Q

how does the blood from the right coronary artery get back to the right atrium?

A

through the middle and small cardiac viens and back into the coronary sinus to the atrium

67
Q

how is the coronary blood system controlled?

A

through local metabolites (hypoxia, adenosine). minor role of the sympathetic and parasympathetic.

68
Q

how does sympathetic innervation affect the heart?

A

increase heart rate and increase the force of contraction

69
Q

what section of the sympathetic spinal chord level specifically innervates the heart?

A

T1-T4 levels (sometimes T5) and the gagleons next to them, as well as the upper middle and lower cervical ganglions in the sympathetic chain.

70
Q

describe the path of the sympathetic innervation of the heart:

A

the preganglionic neurons synapses in the lateral horn of the spinal chord gray matter then travels out the ventral root, thorugh the trunk and the ventral ramus to the white ramus communicon to the sympathetic chain where it synapses with the post ganglionic sympathetic neuron, the post ganglionic then travels to the heart

71
Q

what are the postganglionic sympathetic nerves to the heart also known as?

A

the thoracic sympathetic cardiac nerves or the cardiopulmonary splanchnic nerves. or the ones from the cervical ganglions are the cerviacl sympathetic cardiac nerves.

72
Q

how would loss of a cervical ganglion result in sympathetic innervation changes to the heart?

A

Higher, middle,and lower ganglions of the sympathetic chain in the cervical region innervate the heart.

73
Q

what is the purpose of parasympathetic innervation to the heart?

A

decrease heart rate and decrease force of contraction.

74
Q

where does parasympathetic innervation come from to go to the heart?

A

medula oblengota, and then goes down the vegas nerve to the heart where it synapses an intramural gangleon.!

75
Q

describe the path of heart contraction initiation

A

SA node to the atrium, and to the AV node. then down the bundle of His, the left and right bundle branches and down the perking fibers.

76
Q

where are visceral sensory affarent pathways found from the heart?

A

along both the parasympathetic and sympathetic tracks (the vegas nerve and the T1 to T4 sympathetic nerves.)

77
Q

how is the visceral sensory associated with the path of the vegas nerve associated with homeostasis?

A

this nerve is responsible for sensing changes in BP and blood chemistry and deal with cardiac reflexes.

78
Q

how are the sympathetic nerve pathways associated with referred pain?

A

T1-T4 sympathetic chain gangeon, as well as the middle and lower cervical ganglion serve as paths for the visceral sensory neurons from the heart. These also share a spinal chord section with the T1 to T4 dermitomes in the chest. This may be why chest pain is associated with heart attacks.
