Bellringer – answer on the scrap paper • How are plasma and the formed elements of blood different? • What are the steps of hemostasis?
Are you correct? • The formed elements include the RBCs, WBCs, and platelets, or the cells found in the blood. The plasma is the liquid portion of blood that is mostly water. • Hemostasis: 1) vascular spasm; 2) platelet plug formation; 3) coagulation
LEQs • What is the structure of the heart? • What path does blood take through the heart and body? • What are the differences and similarities in the functions of the systemic system, pulmonary system, hepatic portal, and coronary circulation?
Read pgs. 362-366 Homework – copy down; due tomorrow • What are the layers of the heart from outer-most to inner-most? • What is the difference between atria and ventricles in terms of location, structure and function? • Starting with the vena cava, what is the path of blood through the heart? Include the trip to the lungs, blood vessels & specific valves.
Cardiovascular System Notes Part 1
Basics • Cardiovascular system is composed of the heart and blood vessels • Cardio- = heart • -vascular = refers to the blood vessels • Basic path: arteries – arterioles – capillaries – venules - veins
Pulmonary circuit • Sends deoxygenated blood to the lungs to get O2 and get rid of CO2
Systemic Circuit • Sends O2 rich blood and nutrients all over body • Removes wastes
Path of blood • O2- poor blood to right atrium • Right atrium to right ventricle • Right ventricle pumps to lungs • Lungs to left atrium • Left atrium to left ventricle • Left ventricle to body
Structure of heart • Hollow, cone-shaped, muscular pump • In thoracic cavity, on top of the diaphragm • Size: approx. 14 cm long by 9 cm wide • Pericardium = covering around heart • Heart wall = epicardium (outer layer); myocardium (muscular middle layer); endocardium (inner layer)
Chambers • 2 atria on top; thin walls; receive blood • 2 ventricles on bottom; thicker walls; pumps blood out into arteries • Septum; wall that separates left and right sides
Valves • Function: to ensure one-way blood flow • AV (atrioventricular) valves: tricuspid & mitral • Tricuspid: on right, 3 cusps (flaps) • Mitral: on left, a.k.a. bicuspid; only 2 cusps • Pulmonary valve: between right ventricle and pulmonary artery; 3 cusps • Aortic valve: at base of aorta and top of left ventricle; 3 cusps
Blood Supply • Coronary arteries: 1st 2 branches of aorta; provide for the capillaries of the myocardium • Cardiac veins: remove blood from myocardial capillaries • Coronary sinus: empties into right atrium
Cardiac cycle • Systole = contraction • Diastole = relaxation • Cycle = atrial systole / ventricular diastole – ventricular systole / atrial diastole – both relax; equals a complete heart beat

Heart sounds • Through a stethoscope sounds like “lubb – dupp” • Lubb = ventricular contraction; AV valves closing • Dupp = ventricular relaxation pulmonary & aortic valves closing • Murmur = abnormal heart sounds
Functional Syncytium • Mass of merging cells that function as a unit • Atrial walls and ventricular walls
Cardiac conduction system • Fibers that initiate and distribute impulses throughout the myocardium • Coordinates cardiac cycle
Sinoatrial node (S-A node) • In right atrium near superior vena cava • Initiates impulses that spread into myocardium and cause cardiac contractions • A.k.a. the pacemaker
The Path • S-A note atrial syncytium junctional fibers A-V node A-V bundle bundle branches Purkinje fibers ventricular syncytium
Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) • Recording of electrical changes during cardiac cycle • Muscle fibers are polarized between cycles • P wave = depolarization of ventricles • T wave = ventricles repolarizing • P-Q interval = time between beginning of P wave and beginning of QRS complex; time for impulse to travel from S-A node through A-V
Regulation of Cardiac Cycle • cells need more blood during certain times, like strenuous exercise • parasympathetic or sympathetic nerve fibers “tell” the heart to increase heart rate • Temperature changes can affect HR (colder = slower HR) • Ions affect HR (CA+2, K+)
Blood Vessels • Closed circuit • Tubes that carry blood from the heart to the cells and back • Includes: arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins
Arteries & Arterioles • Carry blood away from the heart • Under high pressure • Arteries are larger • Arterioles are smaller and branched • Contain muscle in the artery wall • Vasoconstriction: contraction of the artery • Vasodilation: increase diameter of the vessel • Aorta = largest-diameter artery
Capillaries • Smallest-diameter blood vessel • Connect to arterioles and venules • Where exchange of gases and nutrients happens between blood and cells • Happens by osmosis, diffusion and filtration
Veins and venules • Carry blood back to heart • Veins are larger than venules • Lower pressure than in arteries and arterioles • Less muscle in the wall than arteries • Many contain valves
Blood pressure • Force blood exerts against the inner walls of blood vessels • Systolic pressure: max pressure during ventricular contraction • Diastolic pressure: lower pressure during ventricular relaxation • Influenced by stroke volume / cardiac output, blood volume, peripheral resistance, viscosity • Normal = 120 / 80 (+/- 20)
