Presentation Transcript

  1. Tuesday, April 30, 2013 • Describe the difference between the two circuits of the heart. • Pulmonary flows between the heart and lungs • Systemic flows between the heart and the rest of the body • Trace the flow of blood through the heart, starting from the superior and inferior vena cava. • Right atrium  Right AV valve  Right ventricle  pulmonary semilunar valve  Pulmonary trunk  left/right pulmonary arteries  lungs  left/right pulmonary veins  left atrium  left AV valve  left ventricle  aortic semilunar valve  ascending/descending aorta • What are the three layers of the heart? • Epicardium, myocardium, endocardium

  2. Thursday, May 2, 2013 • What layer of the pericardium is closest to the heart? • visceral pericardium • Describe the structure of the mitral valve. What is the purpose of this reinforcement? • Chordae tendineae are attached to papillary muscles. The reinforcement prevents regurgitation of blood into the left atrium. • List, in correct operating order, the structures that compose the conduction system of the heart. • SA node, AV node, AV bundle, bundle branches, Purkinje fibers
