  1. Cardiovascular Structure & Function

  2. Cardiovascular system: • The heart • Arteries • Veins • Capillaries • Lymphatic vessels

  3. Weighting of the heart ceremony: Ancient Egyptians

  4. William Harvey and Blood Flow April 1, 1578 – June 3, 1657

  5. Introduction • The most basic functions of the cardiovascular system are: • To deliver oxygen and nutrients to body tissues • To remove waste • To regulate temperature

  6. Circulatory system

  7. Circulatory system 1. Left ventricle 2. Aorta 3. Arterial system 4. Vena cava 5. Right atrium 6. Right ventricle 7. Pulmonary artery 8. Lungs 9. Pulmonary veins 10. Left atrium 1. Left ventricle

  9. Systolic and Diastolic phases Diastolic phase = Ventricular filling Systolic phase = Ventricular ejection

  13. Intra-cardiac and arterial pressures

  14. Hypertension Hypertension is defined as an abnormal increase in arterial pressure Hypertension results in an increase in ventricular work and ventricular hypertrophy

  16. Classification of arterial pressure (> 18 years) Systolic pressure = maximal pressure Diastolic pressure = minimal pressure CATEGORY SYSTOLIC (mmHg) DIASTOLIC (mmHg) Normal < 130 < 85 Normal ++ 130-139 85-89 Hypertension STAGE 1 (Mild) 140-159 90-99 STAGE 2 (Moderate) 160-179 100-109 STAGE 3 (Severe) 180-209 110-119 STAGE 4 (Very Severe) >209 >119 A very low pressure should also by examined by a Doctor.

  21. Factors influencing flow and pressure

  22. SP (systolic pressure) PP MAP (mean pressure) DP (diastolic pressure) Mean pressure (MAP) and pulsed pressure (PP) MAP 2/3 DP + 1/3 SP PP= SP  DP

  23. Resistance and compliance Resistance : R  MAP / CO MAP : mean arterial pressure CO : cardiac output Compliance : C  SV / PP SV : stroke volume PP : pulse pressure Normal conditions (120/80 mmHg) : R = 1.1 mmHg.s/mL C = 2.0 mL/mmHg Severe hypertension (190/115 mmHg) : R = 1.7 mmHg.s/mL C = 0.8 mL/mmHg

  24. Resistance and compliance Normal flow rate : SV = 70 mL, CO = 5L/min Resistance : R  MAP / CO R increases  MAP increases Compliance : C  SV / PP C decreases  PP increases MAP 100 PP mmHg 50 0 0 0.5 1 1.5

  25. Hypertension and aortic pressure Normal (120 / 80) 200 R = 1.1 mmHg.s / mL C = 2.0 mL / mmHg MAP = 95 mmHg PP = 40 mmHg R = 1.7 mmHg.s / mL C = 0.8 mL / mmHg MAP = 140 mmHg PP = 75 mmHg MAP 100 95 PP 0 0 0.5 1 1.5 Severe hypertension (190 / 115) 200 MAP 140 PP 100 0 0 0.5 1 1.5

  26. Arterial Pressure Flow, resistance and compliance of the arterial system are significant determinants of arterial pressure Another parameter that can determine arterial pressure is wave reflection in the arterial system.

  29. Heart Sounds

  30. Heart Sounds Two heart sounds can be distinguished: S1 and S2. S1 is synchronized with early systolic phase. S2 is synchronized with the end of systolic phase. The frequencies are between 10 and 500 Hz with low intensity

  31. 1st stethoscope • 1816 Laennec was examining a young female patient • He was embarrassed to place his ear to her chest • Rolled up 24 sheets of paper, placed one end to his ear and the other end to the woman’s chest • Discovered that the sounds were also louder and clearer

  32. Examples of stethoscopes In 1819, the French doctor René Laënnec invented the stethoscope.

  33. Examples of stethoscopes En 1851, Dr. Marsh developed the 1st commercial model.

  34. Pathological heart sounds Several pathologies induce turbulence in the flow in the cardiovascular system. High frequencies in the turbulent flow generate audible sounds.

  36. Aortic valve Normal vs Stenosed

  37. Congenital Rhumatismal Calcification Aortic stenosis : different origins

  38. Aortic stenosis The most common valvulopathy in industrial countries. Prevalence 1 to 2 % in people > 65 years old. Valvular surgeries in Canada (1996-1997)

  39. Aortic stenosis Carabello et al. NEJM, 1997

  40. Symptoms • Angina pectoris • Syncope • Intolerance to exercise

  41. Investigation of the severity of aortic stenoses • Gorlin Equation • Energy loss coefficient

  42. Biological valves : Xeno-valves : pericardial or porcine Homo-valves : human Ross procedure • Mechanical valves : Cage-ball : Starr-Edwards Mono-leaflet : Björk-Shiley Bi-leaflet : St-Jude Valve replacement

  43. Bioprosthetic valves • Pericardial valves • Porcine valves

  44. Caged-ball : • 1960 (Starr-Edwards) • Mono-leaflet : • Bi-leaflet : Mechanical valves
