Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The Cardiovascular System § A closed system of the heart and blood vessels
§ The heart pumps blood § Blood vessels allow blood to circulate to all
parts of the body
§ The function of the cardiovascular system is transportation - it delivers oxygen and nutrients and removes carbon dioxide and other waste products

The Heart § Location – 2/3 to the left of the midline
§ Thorax between the lungs in the inferior mediastinum – medial cavity of the thorax
§ Orientation § Pointed apex directed toward left hip – where
you would place a stethoscope
§ Base points toward right shoulder § About the size of your fist and weighs less than a
pound

The Heart: Coverings § Pericardium—a double-walled sac
§ Fibrous pericardium is loose and superficial § Serous membrane is deep to the fibrous
pericardium and composed of two layers § Visceral pericardium
§ Next to heart; also known as the epicardium
§ Parietal pericardium § Outside layer that lines the inner
surface of the fibrous pericardium § Serous fluid fills the space between the layers
of pericardium

The Heart: Heart Wall § Three layers
§ Epicardium - Outside layer § This layer is the visceral pericardium § Connective tissue layer
§ Myocardium - Middle layer § Mostly cardiac muscle twisted and whorled into
ringlike arrangement § The layer that actually contracts § Called the skeleton of the heart
§ Endocardium - Inner layer § Endothelium that lines heart chambers § Continuous with blood vessels leaving & entering the
heart

Homeostatic Imbalance: Pericarditis § Inflammation of the pericardium § Results in decrease of serous fluid § Cause pericardial layers to stick together forming
painful adhesions
§ Interferes with heart movement

The Heart: Chambers § Right and left side act as separate pumps § Four hollow chambers
§ 2 Atria § Receiving chambers – not important in pumping activity of
heart § Blood flows in from veins under low pressure § Right atrium § Left atrium
§ 2 Ventricles § Discharging chambers – actual pumps of the heart
§ Right ventricle § Left ventricle

The Heart: Valves § Allow blood to flow in only one direction to prevent
backflow § Four valves
§ Atrioventricular (AV) valves—between atria and ventricles § Bicuspid (mitral) valve (left side of heart) § Tricuspid valve (right side of heart) § Anchored in place by chordae tendinae
(“heart strings”) § Open during heart relaxtion and closed
during ventricular contrations
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Valves § Semilunar valves—between ventricle and artery
§ Pulmonary semilunar valve § Aortic semilunar valve § Closed during heart relaxation but open
during ventricular contraction
Notice these valves operate opposite of one another to force a one-way path of blood through the heart
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
**Homeostatic Imbalance § Faulty Valves – heart can function with “leaky” valves as long as
damage is not too great
§ Incompetent valve – forces heart to pump and repump same blood because valves don’t close properly & blood backflows
§ Valvular stenosis – valve flaps become stiff often because of repeated endocarditis (bacterial infection of the endocardium)
§ Forces heart to contract more vigorously increasing workload
§ Faulty valve replaced with synthetic valve, cryopreserved human valve, or chemically treated porcine valve (pig heart valve)

Systemic and Pulmonary Circulations § Systemic circulation
§ Blood flows from the left side of the heart through the body tissues and back to the right side of the heart
§ Pulmonary circulation § Blood flows from the right side of the heart to
the lungs and back to the left side of the heart

The Heart: Associated Great Vessels § Arteries
§ Aorta - Leaves left ventricle § Pulmonary arteries - Leave right ventricle
§ Veins § Superior and inferior venae cavae - Enter right atrium § Pulmonary veins (four) - Enter left atrium

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Blood Flow Through the Heart § Superior and inferior venae cavae dump blood into
the right atrium
§ From right atrium, through the tricuspid valve, blood travels to the right ventricle
§ From the right ventricle, blood leaves the heart as it passes through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary trunk
§ Pulmonary trunk splits into right and left pulmonary arteries that carry blood to the lungs
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Blood Flow Through the Heart § Oxygen is picked up and carbon dioxide is dropped
off by blood in the lungs
§ Oxygen-rich blood returns to the heart through the four pulmonary veins
§ Blood enters the left atrium and travels through the bicuspid valve into the left ventricle
§ From the left ventricle, blood leaves the heart via the aortic semilunar valve and aorta

Coronary Circulation § Blood in the heart chambers does not nourish the
myocardium § The heart has its own nourishing circulatory
system consisting of § Coronary arteries—branch from the aorta to
supply the heart muscle with oxygenated blood § Cardiac veins—drain the myocardium of blood § Coronary sinus—a large vein on the posterior of
the heart, receives blood from cardiac veins § Blood empties into the right atrium via the
coronary sinus
-

** Homeostatic Imbalance § Angina Pectoris – crushing chest pain caused by
oxygen deprivation of the myocardium
§ Infarct – caused by prolonged oxygen deprivation where heart cells die
§ Myocardial infarction – “heart attack” or “coronary”

II. Physiology of the Heart § Intrinsic conduction system (nodal system)
§ Heart muscle cells contract, without nerve impulses, in a regular, continuous way
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The Heart: Conduction System § Special tissue sets the pace – similar to cross between
muscle & nervous tissue § Sinoatrial node = SA node (“pacemaker”), is in the
right atrium § Atrioventricular node = AV node, is at the junction
of the atria and ventricles § Atrioventricular bundle = AV bundle (bundle of His),
is in the interventricular septum § Bundle branches are in the interventricular septum § Purkinje fibers spread within the ventricle wall
muscles
-

Heart Contractions
Figure 11.6
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Heart Contractions § Contraction is initiated by the sinoatrial node (SA
node)
§ Sequential stimulation occurs at other autorhythmic cells
§ Force cardiac muscle depolarization in one direction—from atria to ventricles
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Heart Contractions § Once SA node starts the heartbeat
§ Impulse spreads to the AV node § Then the atria contract
§ At the AV node, the impulse passes through the AV bundle, bundle branches, and Purkinje fibers
§ Blood is ejected from the ventricles to the aorta and pulmonary trunk as the ventricles contract
-

Heart Contractions
Figure 11.6
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Heart Contractions § Tachycardia—rapid heart rate over 100 beats per
minute
§ Bradycardia—slow heart rate less than 60 beats per minutes
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
**Homeostatic Imbalance § Heart block – when the AV node is damaged
allowing the ventricles to beat at their own slower rate
§ Ischemia – lack of adequate blood supply which leads to fibrillation- rapid uncoordinated shudddering of heart muscles
§ Pacemaker will need to be inserted to correct this condition.

The Heart: Cardiac Cycle § Cardiac cycle—events of one complete heart beat
§ Mid-to-late diastole—blood flows from atria into ventricles
§ Ventricular systole—blood pressure builds before ventricle contracts, pushing out blood
§ Early diastole—atria finish refilling, ventricular pressure is low
-

Heart Sounds § When using a stethoscope you hear two distinct
sounds in a cardiac cycle.
§ These heart sounds are described by two syllables “lub” and “dup”
§ The “lub” is caused by the closing of the AV valves (bicuspid and tricuspid)
§ The “dup” occurs when the semilunar valves close.
-

** Homeostatic Imbalance - Murmurs § Murmur – abnormal or unusual heart sounds
§ Fairly common in young children (and some elderly people) with perfectly healthy hearts probably due to thin heart walls.
§ Outside of these groups a murmur may indicate a valve problem.

The Heart: Regulation of Heart Rate § Increased heart rate
§ Sympathetic nervous system § Crisis stressors (physical or emotional
trauma, high body temp.)
§ Low blood pressure § Hormones can also increase heart rate
§ Epinephrine
§ Thyroxine § Exercise – working muscles generate heat
which increases heart rate by boosting metabolism
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The Heart: Regulation of Heart Rate § Decreased heart rate
§ Parasympathetic nervous system slow and steady the heart giving it time to rest.

** Homeostatic Imbalance § Congestive heart failure – when the pumping
efficiency of the heart is depressed so that circulation is inadequate to meet tissue needs.
§ A progressive condition that may be caused by coronary atherosclerosis (blockage of coronary vessels with fatty buildup), persistent high blood pressure or multiple myocardial infarctions
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) § Each side can fail independently
§ If the left side fails it is pulmonary congestion because the right side continues to send blood to the lungs but the left side can not discharge blood into systemic circuclation
§ Lungs become swollen with blood, pressure increases and fluid leaks into lung tissue causing pulmonary edema
§ If untreated the patient suffocates
-
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) § If the right side fails peripheral
congestion occurs as blood backs up in the systemic circulation
§ Edema is most noticeable in distal parts of the body; feet, ankles, and fingers become swollen and puffy
§ Failure of one side puts a greater strain on the other side and eventually the whole heart fails
