  1. Chapter 13 Heart Rate and Blood Pressure

  2. The Cardiac Cycle • Each Heartbeat is called a Cardiac Cycle • Step 1: the two atria contract at the same time • This pushes blood into the ventricles • Step 2: the two ventricles contract at the same time • The Right Ventricle pushes the blood into the Lungs • The Left Ventricle pushes the blood into the Body • Step 3: all the chambers relax • The atria fill with blood returning to the heart

  3. Systole  This refers to the heart muscle contracting • Diastole  This refers to the heart muscle relaxing Ventricular Systole Atrial Diastole Ventricular Diastole Atrial Systole

  4. What Controls the Heartbeat? • There are two areas that control how fast the heart beats. • Intrinsic Control  inside the heart there are nerves that control the heart beat • Extrinsic Control  a part of the brain controls the heart beats

  5. Intrinsic Control • In the upper right atrium there is a sinoatrial node (SA node) • In the lower right atrium there is a atrioventricular node (AV node) • These nodes are made of muscle but is mostly made of nervous tissue

  6. Intrinsic Control • The SA node starts the heartbeat and sends out an electrical pulse that causes the atria to contract. • When the electrical pulse reaches the AV node there is short delay. This delay allows the atria to finish their contraction. • The AV node sends the signal down the Atrioventricular bundle, which then branches into Purkinje Fibres. • This signal sent by the AV node causes the ventricles to contract

  7. SA node (Sinoatrial node) Atrioventricular Bundle Purkinje Fibres AV node (atrioventricular node) Atrioventricular Bundle

  8. Its time for a Review Break • Draw a picture of the heart from your memory. • No books no notes. Just a pen and paper. • Right atrium, left atrium • Right ventricle, left ventricle • Atrioventricular valves • Semilunar valves • Pulmonary trunk, aorta, pulmonary veins, superior vena cava, inferior vena cava • ChordaeTendineae • Septum • AV node and SA node

  9. Extrinsic Control • A part of the brain controls the heart and controls how fast or slow the heart rate will be • The part of the brain that controls the heart is called the Medulla Oblongata

  10. The heartbeat is part of your autonomic nervous system • The autonomic nervous system is the part of the nervous system that you do not think about. It happens automatically • Ex./ heartbeat, peristalsis, gall bladder squirting bile. • The autonomic nervous system has 2 parts • The Sympathetic Nervous System • The Parasympathetic Nervous System

  11. The Parasympathetic Nervous System • The is the system that takes over when you are resting. • Your body is relaxed • You are at rest • Your body sends its blood to its stomach so it can digest food • Your heart rate decreases because you are at rest

  12. The Sympathetic Nervous System • This is the system that takes over when something is threatening you and your “flight or fight” reaction takes over or if you are very stressed (physically or mentally) • Your body sends blood to the large muscles in your body, so it can have more energy to run or fight • Your body releases several different hormones that cause an increase in heart rate • Brain sees or smells or hears something that causes fear or stress. It sends a message to the adrenal glands to release hormones like epinephrine and norepinephrine. These hormones increase heart rate

  13. Parasympathetic • Sympathetic • Parasympathetic • Heart Rate Low • Blood is around your digestion system • Hormones released into your blood • Heart rate is faster • Blood moves into muscles to Beat this Ninja up • Heart rate starts to slow down • You are Eating and watching TV • Suddenly a Ninja jumps though the window and tries to KILL you • You easily Beat the Ninja and go back to watching TV

  14. The Pulmonary Circuit • Blood leaves the Right Ventricle to go to the Lungs  It goes through the pulmonary Trunk • The pulmonary Trunk branches off into pulmonary arteries • The pulmonary arteries Branch and branch until they are capilliaries in the lungs to exchange gases • The blood returns to the Left Atrium oxygenated • The blood comes back through the pulmonary Veins

  15. Systemic Circuit • Systemic means spread throughout  this refers to the cells in our body. They are spread throughout our bodies • Blood leaves the heart via the Aorta • Blood then branches off into many different arteries • Blood comes back to the heart through many different veins

  16. Arteries • Subclavian Artery • Mesenteric Artery • Renal Artery • Iliac Artery • Carotid Artery • Coronary Arteries • Veins • Subclavian Vein • Hepatic Portal Vein and Hepatic Vein • Renal Vein • Iliac Vein • Jugular Vein • Coronary Vein

  17. Provincial Exam Questions

  18. Blood Flow • Blood Velocity • Arteries have the highest blood flow • It gets slower and slower the narrower the tubes get until capillaries, which is the slowest • The capillaries turn to venules and the blood starts to move faster • The venules turn to veins and it is moving a little faster

  19. Arteries Arteriole Capillary Venule and Vein

  20. Blood Flow • Blood Pressure • The pressure that is put against the wall of the blood vessel • Arteries will have the highest pressure • Veins will have the lowest pressure • Two types of pressure • Systolic Pressure  Ventricles contract • Diastolic Pressure  Ventricles relax

  21. Blood Flow • Blood Pressure • The pressure is high coming out of the heart and it slowly decreases • The pressure decreases because it gets farther away from the Heart • Pressure gets very low in the Veins. The body relies on the veins and the muscles to move blood back to the heart

  22. Blood Pressure Problems • Hypotension • Low Blood Pressure • Blood vessels widen • Caused from hormone changes, heart problems • Hypertension • High Blood Pressure • Narrow blood vessels • Caused from Stress, obesity, hormone problems
