  1. CIRCULATORYSYSTEM FUNCTION OF THE HEART

  2. Four Main Functions of the Circulatory System • Pump • ___________ is the pump that circulates blood to all parts of the body • Blood transport system around body • Arteries, veins, and capillaries are the structures that take blood from the heart • Carries oxygen and nutrients to cells, carries away waste products • Lymph system • Returns excess tissue fluid to general circulation

  3. Heart (see figure 13-2 pg. 262) • Avg. 72 bpm, 100,000 beats per day • Superior and inferior vena cava bring deoxygenated blood to the ________ atrium • Cardiopulmonary circulation • Circulation form the heart to the ________. • Pulmonary artery • Takes blood from the right ________ to the lungs • Pulmonary veins • Bring _______ blood from the lungs to the left atrium • Aorta • Takes blood from the left ventricle to the rest of the body • Four heart valves which are:

  4. Pump • Heart is a double pump • Which means what? • Now look at the board for the order circulation • Also see figure 13-5 pg. 266

  5. Heart Sounds • “Lubb dupp” sound • Comes from the valves closing • Lubb sound is heard 1st and made by tricuspid and bicuspid closing (S1 sound) • Loudest at the apex • Dupp sound is heard 2nd and is shorter and higher pitched (S2 sound) • Caused by the semilunar and pulmonary valves closing

  6. Electrical Activity • SA (sinoatrial) node • Pacemaker • Sends out electrical impulses, spreads impulse over the atria and makes them contract • AV (atrioventricular) node • Carries impulse to Bundle of His • Located b/t the atria and ventricle • Bundle of His • Conducting fivers in septum • Divides into left and right branches in ventricles to Purkunje fibers • Purkunje fibers • Cause ventricles to contract

  7. Cardiac Cycle 1(see figure 13-6 pg. 268) • SA node>stimulates both artia>blood flows from atria to ventricles via tricuspid and bicuspid valves • At same time ventricles are relaxed allowing them to fill with blood = seminular valves closed so blood cannot enter pulmonary artery or aorta

  8. Cardiac Cycle 2 • AV node>stimulates contraction of both ventricles>blood pumped into the pulmonary artery and aorta • Atria are relaxed and tricuspid and bicuspid valves close

  9. Cardiac Cycle 3 • Ventricles relax>semilunar valves close>heart rests briefly (repolarization) • Cycle then begins again with the signal from the SA node • Each cardiac cycle takes 0.8 seconds and represents one heart beat
