An efficient circulatory system has:
• A fluid, e.g. blood, to carry the materials to be transported;
• A system of vessels to distribute the blood;• A pump to push the blood through the system;• Exchange organs to carry out exchanges
between the blood and external environment, – Lungs and intestine to add materials to the
blood;– Lungs, skin, and kidneys to remove
materials from the blood.

Functions of the Cardiovascular System
![Page 11: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
You have a very fancy plumbing system!
• It can carry more than just water: nutrients, oxygen, waste products, hormones, etc. all in the same fluid at the same time!
• The pipes are soft and pliable, bending with you as you move and absorbing shock that is applied
• Any leaks in the plumbing system usually repair themselves
• If there is increased demand, more pipes will grow
![Page 12: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The most crucial demand on the circulatory system is the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from a gas exchange organ (lungs)

The Heart
![Page 29: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The continual circulation of blood throughout the body is essential for maintaining homeostasis (a state of equilibrium within the body).
![Page 30: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The pumping action of the heart is essential to maintain blood circulation. It beats about 75 times per minute. The amount of blood pumped from one ventricle per minute is called the cardiac output.
![Page 31: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, arteries, capillaries, and veins.
![Page 32: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The heart is at the center of the circulatory system and it connects with arteries (which transport blood away from the heart) and veins (which transport blood towards the heart). Between the two are capillaries.
![Page 33: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The heart propels blood in one direction. It contracts and relaxes. The right side pumps blood to the lungs. The left side pumps to the rest of the body.
![Page 34: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
![Page 35: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The pulmonary circuit consists of the right side of the heart (right atrium and right ventricle), the pulmonary arteries, which convey poorly oxygenated blood to the lungs, and the pulmonary veins, which convey oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium.
![Page 36: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
The systemic circuit consists of the chambers on the left side of the heart (left atrium and left ventricle) and all the named blood vessels that carry blood to the tissues (arteries) and all the named blood vessels that return the blood from the tissues (veins) back to the right atrium of the heart. The tissue capillaries are included.

WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE PULMONARY CIRCUIT OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM?
A PULMONARY ARTERIES
B PULMONARY VEINS
C SUPERIOR VENA CAVA
D RIGHT ATRIUM
E RIGHT VENTRICLE
![Page 38: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The heart is located left of the body midline posterior to the sternum in the mediastinum.
![Page 39: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The heart is located in the mediastinum
![Page 40: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
The heart is rotated such that the right side or border (right atrium and right ventricle) is located more anteriorly, while its left side or border (left atrium and left ventricle) is located more posteriorly.
![Page 41: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Master Long knows where your heart is located!
![Page 42: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
An upward and inward blow to the xiphoid can fracture it off and drive it into the heart.
![Page 43: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Master Long delivering the potentially fatal blow to his opponent’s xiphoid.
![Page 44: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The heart is contained within the pericardium, a fibrous sac and double-layered serous lining. It is fused to the diaphragm.
![Page 45: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Note that when the chest wall is removed, the heart is contained within the fibrous pericardium, which is fused to the diaphragm.
![Page 46: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
The pericardium is composed of two parts: the outer fibrous pericardium and the inner, double-layered serous pericardium.
![Page 47: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
The serous pericardium is divided into two layers that are actually continuous with each other: the parietal layer, which is lines the inner surface of the fibrous pericardium, and the visceral layer, which is fused to the outer surface of the heart (this layer is also called the epicardium).
Visceral layer Parietal layer
![Page 48: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Note the serous pericardium is composed of a parietal layer and a visceral layer. The thin space between the two is the pericardial cavity, which is filled with a lubricating serous fluid.
![Page 49: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Note the fluid-filled pericardial cavity
![Page 50: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Pericarditis is inflammation of the visceral and parietal layers of the serous pericardium, usually accompanied by excess fluid between the two membranes. This excess fluid can cause pressure on the heart (cardiac tamponade) and impair the function of the heart.
![Page 51: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Blows to the chest can lead to pericardial tamponade caused by bleeding between the visceral and parietal pericardial membranes.
![Page 52: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Cardiac tamponade caused by infection or bleeding can increase pressure on the outside of the heart. This will cause falling blood pressure, pulsus paradoxus, JVD, and perhaps death.
![Page 53: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
If the heart is unable to pump blood properly, then the venous blood traveling towards the heart backs up. This will lead to external jugular vein distention (JVD). One cause of JVD is cardiac tamponade.
![Page 54: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
![Page 55: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
• Internal jugular vein is deep and not normally visible, but it is a better signal of JVD. Look for pulsus paradoxus
![Page 56: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
![Page 57: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
![Page 58: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
A common treatment for cardiac tamponade is to carefully insert a needle through the parietal pericardium and aspirate off some of the excess fluid to relieve the pressure on the outside of the heart.
![Page 59: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS A CORRECT STATEMENT?
A A FRICTION RUB IS HEARD WITH PERICARDITIS, BUT NOT IN A HEART ATTACK
B THE PARIETAL LAYER OF THE SEROUS PERICARDIUM IS OBSERVED AS SOON AS THE CHEST WALL IS PULLED AWAY WHILE DISSECTING A CADAVER
C CARDIAC TAMPONADE IS ASSOCIATED WITH “CRUSHING” PAIN IN THE RIGHT CHEST/ARM
D PULSUS PARADOXUS IS TRIGGERED BY THE VAGUS NERVE
E ALL OF THE ABOVE
![Page 60: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
The heart wall consists of three distinctive layers: the epicardium (visceral layer of serous pericardium(, the myocardium, and the endocardium (which is continuous with the endothelium of vessels)
![Page 61: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
The heart is composed of four chambers
![Page 62: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
The anterior portion of each atrium is a wrinkled, flap-like extension called an auricle. So, the auricle is just a portion of the atrium.
Auricles
![Page 63: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
The right atrium receives blood from the systemic circuit.
Right atrium
![Page 64: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
The left atrium receives blood from the pulmonary circuit.
Left atrium
![Page 65: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
The ventricles are the inferior chambers. The right ventricle pumps to the pulmonary trunk, while the left ventricle pumps to the aorta.
Pulmonary trunk
![Page 66: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
The fibrous skeleton of the heart is located between the atria and the ventricles, and is formed from dense irregular connective tissue. It is electrically non-conductive!
![Page 67: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
There are one-way valves to guide the flow of blood through the chambers of the heart.
![Page 68: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Poorly oxygenated blood is returned to the right atrium of the heart from the arms and head by the superior vena cava while poorly oxygenated blood from the torso and legs is returned to the right atrium by the inferior vena cava. The venous drainage from the myocardium also empties into the right atrium via the coronary sinus.
![Page 69: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
The fossa ovalis is a depression in the interatrial septum between the left and right atria.
Fossa ovalis
![Page 70: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Blood from the right atrium flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.
Right atrium tricuspid
![Page 71: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
When the right ventricle contracts the tricuspid valve shuts and is supported by the chordae tendineae that are anchored in the papillary muscles.
![Page 72: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
The interventricular septum separates the left and right ventricles. The internal walls of the ventricles have muscular ridges called trabeculae carneae. Projecting from the ventricular walls are papillary muscles which anchor the chordae tendineae.
![Page 73: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)

![Page 74: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Like the shroud lines of a parachute, the chordae tendineae are tight when the atrioventricular valves (tricuspid and bicuspid) are closed. This supports the AV valves during times of high reverse pressure.
![Page 75: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
![Page 76: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
When the right ventricle contracts, and the tricuspid valve closes, the only exit for the blood is the pulmonary semilunar valve
![Page 77: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Pulmonary trunk
After blood flows through the pulmonary semilunar valve it enters the pulmonary trunk. This trunk soon branches into the left and right pulmonary arteries which deliver poorly oxygenated blood to the lungs so CO2 can leave the blood and O2 can enter the blood.
![Page 78: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)

Note there are no chordae tendineae to support the pulmonary semilunar valve. It closes when the back flow of blood fills its cusps
![Page 81: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE RIGHT ATRIUM?

Highly oxygenated blood from the lungs travels to the left atrium via one of the four pulmonary veins (two from each lung).
![Page 83: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Blood from the left atrium passes through the left atrioventricular valve (bicuspid or mitral valve) into the left ventricle.
![Page 84: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
The bicuspid valve (left AV valve, mitral valve) is supported by chordae tendineae when it is closed.
![Page 85: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
Did you hear? They named a
heart valve after our mitres!
The left AV valve (bicuspid valve) is also called the mitral valve because it resembles a bishop’s hat, or mitre.
![Page 86: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)

The left ventricle has the thickest walls because it pumps the blood to the entire arterial system.
The right ventricle has thinner walls since it pumps blood to the lungs nearby more slowly for gas exchange.
![Page 88: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
Papillary muscles
In left ventricle note the papillary muscles and prominent chordae tendineae. The aortic semilunar valve is at the exit.
![Page 89: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Note the aortic semilunar valve, just like the pulmonary semilunar valve, has no chordae tendineae.

New option: put valve in with a stent (old valveis dilated but left in place).The Cribier-Edwards percutaneous heart valve is crimped down to the diameter of a pencil onto a balloon catheter for insertion into the patient’s artery.
![Page 95: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
When open it is about the diameter of a quarter
Equine pericardium!
![Page 96: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
“Diastole” is when a chamber of the heart is relaxed (dilated). “Systole” is when a chamber of the heart is contracted.
![Page 97: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
At the beginning of the beginning of the cardiac cycle the left and right atria contract simultaneously (atrial systole), forcing blood through the open AV valves.
![Page 98: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
When the ventricles contract (ventricular systole), the atrioventricular valves close and the semilunar valves are forced open, allowing blood to enter the pulmonary trunk and aorta.
![Page 99: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
When the ventricles are relaxed (diastole) blood soon flows passively from the atria into the ventricles through the open atrioventricular valves. For a brief period all four chambers are in diastole.
![Page 100: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)

The heart has intrinsic rhythmicity (autorhythmicity), even when removed from the body. However, it will not burst into flame!
![Page 102: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
The cardiac conduction system cannot be seen with the eye. It is composed of specialized strands of cardiac muscle.
![Page 103: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
The sinoatrial node, in posterior wall of right atrium, is the pacemaker of the heart. It causes simultaneous depolarization of both atria.
![Page 104: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
The atrioventricular node in the floor of the right atrium, picks up the stimulation from the atria, slows it down, and then transmits the impulses towards the ventricles via the atrioventricular bundle.
![Page 105: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
The impulses from the atrioventricular bundle (bundle of His) next travel into the left and right bundle branches located in the interventricular septum.
![Page 106: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Next the impulses travel to the Purkinje fibers, located in the walls of the ventricles, causing simultaneous depolarization of both ventricles.
![Page 107: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)

Because of the coordinated sequence of heart chamber contractions blood is efficiently pumped through the heart and all the blood vessels of the body.
![Page 109: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Recall that for a period of time both the atria and ventricles are relaxed and all four chambers of the heart are filling simultaneously. Most of the ventricular filling (70%) occurs during this time.
![Page 110: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)

Sympathetic (excitatory) innervation of the heart is from the cervical and thoracic ganglia
Parasympathetic (inhibitory) innervation of the heart is via the left and right vagus nerves.
![Page 113: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)

Hyperventilation reduces CO2 levels which causes vasoconstriction of cerebral blood vessels. Pressure on the chest reduces cardiac output and also stimulates the vagus nerve which suppresses the heart rate. The result of all this is intentional vasovagal syncope
![Page 115: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
Because the myocardium is thick muscle, it needs its own blood supply via the coronary arteries.
![Page 116: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
The left and right coronary arteries are the only branches of the ascending aorta. They exit the ascending aorta immediately superior to the aortic semilunar valve.
Ascending aorta
![Page 117: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
Atherosclerosis can lead to narrowing of the myocardial arteries. This can cause myocardial ischemia and angina pectoris
![Page 118: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
Reduction of blood flow through a branch of the coronary arteries causes pain (angina pectoris)
![Page 119: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
Blockage of blood flow through a branch of the coronary arteries can cause an area of the myocardium to become infarcted (myocardial infarction or MI). This is commonly called a “heart attack”.
![Page 120: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
Venous drainage of the myocardium is via the coronary veins into the coronary sinus, which empties into the right atrium.

![Page 121: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
The venous drainage from the myocardium collects in the coronary veins, which in turn flow to the coronary sinus which drains into the posterior of the right atrium.
![Page 122: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
Tachycardia and/or hypotension can reduce essential blood flow to the myocardium of the ventricles.
![Page 123: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
In the fetal heart most of the blood bypasses the pulmonary circulation by traveling through the foramen ovale directly from the right atrium to the left atrium. A flap of tissue, the septum primum, is pushed aside as the blood flows through the foramen ovale.
![Page 124: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/124.jpg)
When a baby is born and the lungs are fully functional, the blood from the left atrium pushes the septum primum closed, creating a closed interatrial septum.
![Page 125: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/125.jpg)
Fossa ovalis
The fossa ovalis is the depression where the foramen ovale used to be.
![Page 126: 17 Heart](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070316/55578ae0d8b42aa3378b49fb/html5/thumbnails/126.jpg)
If the fossa ovalis fails to close immediately after birth, it is called a patent foramen ovale, perforated fossa ovalis, or an atrial septal defect.
Having this defect persist into adulthood can lead to disease
