cardiac 2 Flashcards
(112 cards)
beta 1 stimulation
activates adenylate cyclase- converts ATP to cAMP
cAMP increases activation of protein kinase A (pka)
what does activated pka do
phosphorylates proteins and accomplishes 3 tasks
- activation of L type ca channels (more ca enters the cell)
- stimualtion of ryanodyne 2 receptor to release more ca
- stimulation of serca2 pump to increase ca uptake (faster rate of ca uptake in the SR) with subsequent enhanced ca release
net effect of beta 1 actvation (pka)
more forceful contraction over shorter time - pos inotropy with enhanced relaxation (pos lusitropy) between beats)
afterload
the force the ventricle must overcome to eject its stroke volume
loook at pressure volume loops
ejection fraction
-informs us about hearts ability to pump blood
-% of hearts ability to pump blood- how much blood is pumped by heart during each beat
L and R coronary arteries rise from
aortic root
L coronary artery
emerges from behind pulmonary trunk, divides into LAD and circumflex
LAD perfuses
anterolateral and apical walls of LV and anterior 2/3 of interventricular septum
circumflex artery supplies
LA and lateral and posteior walls of LV
RCA perfuses
RA, RV, intraarterial septum and posterior 3rd of interventricular septum
PDA perfuses
where does it origionate?
posterior descending artery- infrior wall- origin of this defines coronary dominance
70-80% it comes from RCA - R dominant
the rest comes from rca or circumflex- L dominant
what are the main coronary veins
great cardiac vein (LAD)
middle cardiac v (PDA)
anterior cardiac v (RCA)
run enxt to the A in ()
coronary sinus
located on posterior aspect of RA, superior to tricuspid valve
most of the blood returning from LV drains into here
thebesian v
small amount of blood empties directly into all four cardiac chambers via thesbian veins- contributes a small amount of anatomic shunt. dilutes pao2 of oxygenated blood that passes through lungs
which ones are epicardial vessels and what does that mean
rca, lad, cxa
lay on top of ht surface
these are the ones that are usually affected by vascular stenosis
what is the best view on tee for diagnosing LV ischemia
mid papillary muscle level in short axis
what supply oxygenated blood to myocardium
LCA and RCA
at rest myocardium consumes o2 at a rate of
8-10 ml/min/100g with extraction rate of 70%
coronary blood flor is __ ml/min or __% of co
225; 4-5
coronary vasculature autoregulates between a map of
60-140
out of this range cbf is dependent on cpp
what is coronary reserve
difference between coronary blood flow at rest and maximal dilation. degree of margin allows cbf to increase in times of hemodynamic stress or exercise
the most important determinant of coronary vessel diameter is
local metabolism
as mvo2 increases
the coronary endothelium releases adenosine as well as a variety of other vasodilator substances, including nitric oxide, prostaglandins, hydrogen, K and co2
