QUIZ 3# Flashcards
(343 cards)
What are the 3 paired veins that drain into the tubular heart of a 4 week old embryo?
1- Vitalline Veins
2-Umbilical veins
3- Common cardinal veins
When do the endocardial develop?
5th week
Endocardial Cushion Defects
ASD’s
Overview
1-inappropriate fusion of endocarial cushions
2- abnormality of arial septum-opstium primum
3-abnormality of ventricular Septum and AV Valves
(AV valves associated with defects of cardial cushions)
4-Lack of AV canal
a) ASD
b) defects in Mitral Valve leaflet
c) defects in leaflet of tricuspid
Conduction system
Atria is the interim pacemaker
-Sinus Venosis opening into atria
by te 5th week, the SA NODE developes
- SA node is originally in the right but becomes encorporated into RA with sinus venosus
- SA node is high in the right atrium near the entrance of the SVC
–Cells from the left wall of the sinus venosus forms cells from the AV region for forming the AV Node and end bundle (located just in from of the endocardial cushions)
- Fibers split into right and left bundle branches
- bundle branches are distributed thru out ventricular myocardium
- SA, AV, Bundle of His are richly supplied with nerves
=Only signaling pathway from atria to ventricle
_very specialed cells
Afterload is
pressure that the heart chamber must pump against to eject blood
If there is an increase in PVR, the heart has to pump harder, so there is an increase in afterload
Calcium’s effect on the heart muscle
Overview
Excess-opposite to K+
- causes spastic contraction of the heart
- diretly excites cardiac conntraction process
- Decreases Ca+-causes cardiac flacidity
- Normal level is 9-11; >11 is hyperCa+
An ionized Ca+ is a better indication; Ionized Ca+ is actually the Ca+ that is being utilized by the body (>5.4)
Clinical presentation: poor feeding, poor weight gain, lethargic? polyuria?
What can be affected by too much peep?
Preload
after 9-10 cm of pressure, it will decrease you will decrease preload
watch setting on CPAP/VENT
Aortic Arch ABnormalities
Most of the aortic arch abnormalities result from the persistence of pharngeal arch artieries that will usually disappear
What does the ductus venosus connect?
The Umbilical Vein with the Inferior Vena Cava?
Bulbr ridges fuse dividing the bulbus cordis from the truncus arteriosis……
the truncus arteriosis divides to orm the aorta and the pulmonary artery
Carinal Veins
Overview of Anterior Cardinal Vein
1-Povide main venous drainage system in the embryo
2-Anterior & Posterior Cardinal Veins
a) drain the cranial and caudal part of the embryo
b) join the common cardinal vein and enter sinus venosus
3-Anterior Cardinal Vein are
a) connected and shunt blood from left to right thru the Anterior Cardinal Vein
b) Anterior Carinal Vein-draining blood into the Common Cardinal Vein into the sinus venosus
4-Cardinal Veins become connected thru anastamosis, which shunt left to right
This shunted area is the brachiocephalic Vein
5-Right anterior and Right Common Cardinal Vein Forms the SVC
After Birth, the blood shunts
Left to Right
Sinus Venosus ASD
OVERVIEW
This is a HIGH ASD near the SVC
Very Rare
- incomplete absorption of sinus venosus into the right atrium
- or- abnormal development of septum secundum
- associated with comon pulmonary venous return connections
- can be detected on fetal Ultrasound
By he endof the 4th week, the heart is turning 180 degrees because…..
things now need to line up
THe heart is changing and totating
THE AV Canals seperate primitive atria from primitive
Ventricles
Remolding of the heart
Day 24
a) blood circulated thru the embryo
b) venous return enters the right and left sinus horns via common cardinal veins
Afterload Overview
pressure that the chambers ofthe heart has to generate to eject blood out of the chamber
- pressure the heart chambers must pump to eject blood
- as afterload increases, cardiac output decreases
Endocardial Cushion defects with an Ostium Premum ASD
OVERVIEW
- defect of endocardial cushion and the AV septum
- the septum does not fuse with the endocardial cushions causing an ostium premum defect
- AV Septal Defect-occurs whe the enocardial cushions fail to close
Which cardinal veins appear first?
SUPRAcardinal veins
VENTRICLES
Overview
- primitive ventricle-most of the left ventricle (1 ventricle)
- Bulbus cordis-most of the Right Ventricle early on
- Intraventricular septum starts to grow towards the endocardial cushions
- Intraventricular septum start to grow from the floor of the primitive ventricle and gorws towards the endocarial cushion
Frank starling found that
the strength of th ventricular contraction was found to change the volume the heart recieved; the effects of preload and afterload
- if effects how much a heart is stretched because it will only strtch to a certain amount and then you HAVE to have a contaction-
- responses re independent; neuronal and hormonal influences the heart; dependent upon the the force of the blood entering the heart
- ability of the heart to change force and change stroke volume in response to changes to venous return is the Frank Starling Mechanism
- Greater the muscle is stretched, the greater the force of the contraction
Septum Secundum?
Contributes to the development of the Foramen Ovale
ROTATION of the Heart
Overview
Day 23
a) heart tube elongates to begin to loop
b) bulbus cordis is displaced to the right
c) vent displaced to the left
d) Primitive atrum will be displaced posteriorlaterally and superiorly
