cardiovascular system 1 - assessment part of PT2 Flashcards
(86 cards)
the heart has 5 chambered
true or false?
false, 4
what kind of muscle is the myocardium?
straited muscle
The cavities forming the
right side of the heart
have two important
functions
what are they?
- It collects blood from the
body. - Ventilate the blood with
the pulmonary circulation
and send it to the lungs
to clean it.
how the heart is separated into the right and left parts ?
by septum
located outside the
heart. It prevents the return of blood to the
heart during regeneration (regurgitation)
what is it?
Semilunar caps
what are the atrioventricular caps?
tricuspid between the right atrium and the right ventricular
mitral or bicuspid between left atrium and left ventricular
Right after atrial contraction, the ventricles contract
true or false?
true
how much the heart caps remain closed?
0.02-0.06 seconds
what is the isometric phase?
ventricular pressure increases and
exceeds arterial pressure, blood is
removed from the heart
the heart volume and fiber length are increased during isometric phase
true or false?
false, not changed
The blood pumped from the left
ventricle to the muscular aorta is
distributed to the body with small
arteries called?
arterioles
how the walls of the smooth muscles in the arterioles are placed?
as a circular layers
Arterioles regulate peripheral blood flow through?
contraction and relaxation
A blood flow enters the aorta with every contraction
of the?
left ventricle
Some of the blood pumped from the heart is stored
in?
aorta
what causes a pressure wave to reach distant branches of the arterial down from the aorta?
stored blood in the aorta
Heart pulsation and heart rate are the same.
true or false?
true
120 mmHg at rest is related to which measurement?
The maximum pressure on the heart during each systole or contraction of the left ventricle
what is the reference point used to determine the maximum pressure of contraction of left ventricle?
brachial artery at the level of the right atrium
blood pressure is decreased, and heart is filled with blood and the heart is relaxed in?
diastolic pressure
contraction of heart, blood pressure rises, and blood moves along vessels in?
systolic pressure
which pressure gives an idea
about the load of the heart and its
tension against the arterial wall
during ventricular contraction?
sytocilic
When the heart relaxes, the aortic
vessels?
close
the arterial blood pressure
drops to 70-80 mmHg in?
diastolic pressure
