|
2 tyoes if cardiomyocytes
|
fast and slow response cells
|
|
can AP occur during ERP?
|
no
|
|
can AP occur during RRP?
|
yes, but not efficient
|
|
depolarization of fast response cell is contributed what channel? the plateau?
|
exflux of Na+
Influx of Ca++ |
|
what effect does Ca++ blocker have on the fast response cell?
|
reduces duration of AP
plateau phase changes reduction of force generated |
|
Cardiac muscle relies on intra or extracellular Ca++
|
extra
(both extra and intra contribute to Ca+ pool) |
|
What cardiac cell cluster have slow response?
fast response? |
slow response cells: SA and AV nodes
fast response: atrium, purkinje and ventricle |
|
In slow response cell what ions contribute to initial depolarization of membrane? the slight depolarization after repolarization is contributed by?
|
Influx of Ca++
influx of Na+ |
|
effect pf Ca++ blocker on slow response cells?
|
reduction of depolarization
longer time btw AP - slower HR |
|
Effect that sympathetic stimulation have on SA node firing? parasympathetic?
|
sympathetic: accelerate slow depolarization phase. increases the rate of Na + channel opening.
parasympathetic: hyperpolarizes the cell (increasing K+ channel opening) takes longer to depolarize. |
|
systole is divided into 2 phases.
|
isovolumic and ejection phases
|
|
cardiac Output =
|
HR x Stroke Volume
|
|
Cardiac output in mL/min
|
5L/min
|
|
during fight or flight situation: CO is ___ times that of normal CO
|
5x
|
|
preload
|
heart receiving blood vol
|
|
afterload
|
heart pushing against blood pressure, depended upon vasoconstriction and vasodilation
|
|
Stroke vol is equals to
|
EDV - ESV
EDV: end diastolic vol ESV: end systolic vol |
|
EDV
ESV |
EDV: amount of blood remaining in ventricle at the end of diastole
ESV: amount of blood remaining in ventricle at the end of systole |
|
Frank-Starling effect
|
increasing EDV (increasing preload) corresponds to increasing blood vol in the heart (returning more blood to the heart).
Heart responds by contracting with equal pressure but increased force. |
|
EF (ejection fraction) =
|
SV/EDV
|
|
failed heart has higher or lower ejection fraction compared to a healthy heart?
|
lower
b/c EF = SV/EDV SV stays the same as a normal heart, but EDV increases; hence lowering the EF. |
|
staircase phenomenon of heart rate explains that. molecular concept.
|
increase HR will increase the ability of the heart to generate force.
increased basal level of Ca++ in sarcoplasm allowing a increased Ca++ that binds to troponin C. |
|
atropine blocks
propanolol blocks |
atropine blocks parasympathetic tone, fast HR
paropanolol blocks sympathetic tone, slow HR |
|
positive inotropic effect of sympathetic system on the heart means that
|
increased heart contractility
|
|
w/o inputs from para and sympathetic inputs, the intrinsic HR is
|
100 beats/min
|
|
Both para and sym system are present at the same time but vagal tone are greater. (T/F)
|
T
|
|
If there's an increased venous return to the heart, what effect does bainbridge reflex on the HR?
|
it increases HR
|
|
If there's an increased venous return to the heart, what effect does baroreceptor reflex on the HR?
|
decreases HR
|
|
2 ways that atrial pressure change
|
1. atrial pressure increases when ventricular contraction is low
2. right atrial pressure increases when there's increased venous return |
|
Cardiac function modulation:
short term long term effects |
Short term: HR, SV, vascular resistance (syspathetics and parasympathetics), venous return.
Long term: hypertrophy, vascularization, hematocrit |
|
what effect does slowed HR have on the transit time in the pulmonary circulation?
|
increased transit time to allow more time for gas exchange in the lungs.
|
|
Does SV change during blood infusion?
|
No
|
|
Define preload and afterload?
|
preload: receiving blood vol.
afterload: pushing against blood pressure, depended upon vasoconstriction and vasodilation. |
|
myocardial infarction (heart attack), it occurs where and how?
|
it occurs when a cholesterol plaque in the wall of the coronary artery ruptures and causes a thrombus to form occluding the coronary artery and starving the myocardial cells of glucose and oxygen.
|
|
the risk factors of myocardial infarction are (5)
|
• Hypertension
• Hypercholesterolemia • Diabetes • Cigarette smoking • Family history of coronary artery disease |
|
Coronary artery disease may manifest itself in 6 ways:
|
• Asymptomatic
• Angina: Stable angina and Unstable angina • Myocardial infarction • Congestive heart failure • Cardiogenic shock • Sudden cardiac death |
|
most common manifestation of stable angina is Stages of Hemostasis
|
chest pain or chest pressure during excursion.
|
|
treating stable angina - relax the heart
|
decrease heart rate and contractility (beta blocker and Ca++ blocker) and prevent thrombus formation (nitrate and aspirin)
|
|
cardiomyopathy caused by
|
weakening of the heart muscle can be caused by
myocardial cell death (by not treating myocardial infarction and unstable angina fast enough) disease of the heart valves post-viral or idiopathic etiology |
|
syncope
|
heart fail to pump enough blood to the brain causing the body to lose consciousness
|
|
Stages of Hemostasis
|
•Vasoconstriction (Vascular phase)-Transient
•Primary Hemostasis (Platelet Activation phase) - non-covalent platelet clot •Secondary Hemostasis (Coagulation phase) - covalent platelet clot •Plug Formation and Dissolution |
