Q

Fibrous Skeleton

A

4 fibrous rings, surround orifices of valves

attachment for myocardium of atria & ventricles
provides attachment for cardiac valves
provides electrical insulation between atria and ventricles

Q

Right Ventricle

A

tricuspid
papillary muscle/chordae tendinae
pulmonary valve

17
Q

Left Atrium

A

Foramen ovale

4 opening of pulmonary veins

18
Q

Left Ventricle

A

Bicuspid valve
papillary muscle/chordae tendinae
aortic valve

19
Q

Great Vessicle

A
SVC
IVC
Pulmonary Trunk
Right/left pulmonary veins
Aorta
20
Q

Superior Vena Cava

A

returns blood back to right atrium from areas superior to diaphragm (except from heart and lungs)

21
Q

Inferior Vena Cava

A

return blood back to the right atrium from areas inferior the diaphragum

22
Q

Pulmonary Trunk

A

Sends unoxygenated blood from right ventricle to lungs

23
Q

Right/Left pulmonary veins

A

returns oxygenated blood back to the left atrium from the lungs

24
Q

Aorta

A

sends blood to body from left venticle

25
Brachiocephalic Trunk
gives rise to the CCA and right subclavian vein
26
Tricuspid Valve
located between right atrium and right ventircle chordae tendineae and papillary muscle anchor cusps of the valve auscultate along left sternal border at 5th intercostal space
27
Pulmonary Valve (right semilunar valve)
located between the right ventricle and pulmonary trunk auscultate along left 2nd intercostal
28
Bicuspid Valve
located between left atrium and left ventricle chordae tendineae and papillary muscles anchor cusps of the valve auscultate along apex (5th intercostal space)
29
Aortic Valve (left semulunar valve)
located between left ventricle and the aorta auscultate along right 2nd intercostal space
30
Coronary Arteries
arise from the base of the aorta right coronary artery (RCA) left coronary artery (LCA) Coronary Sinus
31
RCA (right coronary artery)
supplies rigth atrium & ventricle nodal branches supply SA and AV nodes marginal branch of RCA is portion that supplies the right ventricle posterior interventricular artery (right posterior descending)
32
LCA (left coronary artery)
divides into anterior interventricular artery and crcumflex artery anterior interventricular artery (LAD)- supplies R/L ventricles and majority of interventricular septum Circumflex artery- supplies left atrium and ventricle, marginal branch is portion that supplies left ventricle
33
Coronary Sinus
most of the cardiac veins drain into the coronary sinus - coronary drains directly into the roght atrium - great, middle, small cardiac veins and oblique vein of the left atrium all empty into coronary sinus - anterior cardiac veins and smallest cardiac veins empty directly into the right atrium
34
Conducting System of Heart
``` SA node AV node AV bundle (oh his) L/R bundle branch Purkinjie fibers ```
35
Sympathetic Innervation of the Heart
Sympathetic cervicle and thoracic sympathetic trunks, innervate atria and ventricles fxn- increase HR and contractility
36
Parasympathetic Innervation of the Heart
innervate atria | decrease HR and contractility
