Term
what provides blood supply and innervation for the fibrous pericardium?
Definition
internal thoracic (incl pericardiacophrenic and musculophrenic) and inferior phrenic arteries and aorta.
innervated by phrenic nerve.
Term
what is cardiac tamponade, what are the signs, and what can be done?
Definition
collection of blood in the pericardial cavity.
signs are jugular vein distention, muffled heart sounds, and narrowing sys/dias BP difference.
can do pericardiocentesis to drain fluid.
Term
what is the coronary sulcus?
what are the other two sulci?
Definition
it encircles the heart, dividing atria from ventricles.
other two - anterior and posterior interventricular sulci
Term
what are the two sinuses in the heart?
Definition
transverse pericardial sinus (separates main arteries and veins) and oblique pericardial sinus (between pulm veins and heart tissue)
Term
what branches off the right coronary artery?
Definition
branch to the SA node, marginal branch, posterior interventricular artery
Term
what branches off the left coronary artery?
Definition
the anterior interventricular artery (aka LAD), circumflex branch, and marginal
Term
what veins run with the LAD, the posterior interventricular, and the posterior aspect of the right coronary artery, respectively?
Definition
the great cardiac vein, the middle cardiac vein, and the small cardiac vein
Term
what is in the right atrium?
Definition
interatrial septum, fossa ovalis (closed and surrounded by limbus ridge), sinus venarum (smooth), pectinate muscles, and crista terminalis; tricuspid valve and opening of coronary sinus
Term
what is in the right ventricle?
Definition
supraventricular crest, septal limb and moderator band (from septal limb to anterior papillary muscle), trabeculae carneae, 3 papillary muscles, chordae tendineae, conus arteriosus leading to pulmonary valve
Term
what is in the left atrium?
Definition
pulmonary veins, valve for foramen ovale (closed), mitral (biscupid) valve
Term
what is a MI?
Definition
necrosis caused by ischemia, caused by obstruction of blood supply
Term
what types of infarcts can you have?
Definition
transmural - traverses whole wall from endo to epicardium
subendocardial - limited to interior 1/3 of ventricular wall
Term
Pathway of conduction
Definition
SA node --> AV node --> R or L AV Bundle of His --> Purkinje fibers
Term
what innervates the heart?
Definition
cardiac plexus from the auto nervous system.
include sympathetic (visceral motor to increase HR and sensory for pain) and parasympathetic (from vagus nerve, visceral motor to lower HR and visceral sensory to trasmit cardiac reflexes)
