HEART CONDUCTION Throughout the heart are clumps of specialized cardiac muscle tissue whose fibers contain only a few myofibrils Initiate and distribute cardiac impulses throughout the myocardium
3
HEART CONDUCTION intrinsic ability to generate and conduct nerve impulses conducts impulse for proper contraction sequence of heart

6
SINOATRIAL NODE Cell area located on the posterior part of the right atrial wall, adjacent to the junction of the superior vena cava and the right atrium “Pacemaker” signals atria to contract
7
SINOATRIAL NODE depolarization of the SA node is the first step of the cardiac cycle does not produce enough energy to be recorded by the EEG cells in the SA node transmit impulses six times faster than do ordinary cell-to-cell interconnections
8
SINOATRIAL NODE The SA node sets the heart rate at 95 beats per minute
60 beats per minute is intrinsic to the atria alone beats per minute is intrinsic to the ventricles alone
9
HEART CONDUCTION
10
SINOATRIAL NODE Acetycholine released by parasympathetic system of ANS slows SA node to 72 beats per minute Other hormones affect heart rate by influencing SA node
11
ECTOPIC PACEMAKER Site other than SA node develops an abnormal self-excitability Produces extra beats Irregularly pace the heart for short periods of time Nicotine and caffeine can trigger these events
12
ATRIOVENTRICULAR NODE
made up of another cluster of specialized cardiac conduction system cells forms a pathway for impulse conduction that bridges between the atria and ventricles delays impulse for atria to finish contraction
13
HEART CONDUCTION
14
ATRIOVENTRICULAR NODE
Depolarization of the AV node is relatively slow due to the intrinsic characteristics of its cells This causes a delay in the transmission of the depolarization wave to the ventricles transmission of the wave through the AV node is relatively weak considered silent on the electrocardiogram
15
ATRIOVENTRICULAR NODE
damaged AV node ventricles contract intrinsically slower may require an artificial pacemaker
16
BUNDLE OF HIS a compact tract of cardiac conduction system fibers
also called the AV bundle route for signals to leave the AV node
17
BUNDLE OF HIS tract down the interventricular septum
The right and left branches spread the electrical impulse to the right and left ventricles
18
PURKINJE FIBERS conduction system fibers which form a rapid conduction network within the myocardium located at the ends of the bundle branches
19
PURKINJE FIBERS responsible for propagating the depolarization wave to all cardiac muscle cells The QRS Complex of the electrocardiogram represents the ventricular depolarization of contraction
20
HEART CONDUCTION
21
CONDUCTION SA node AV node bundle of His Purkinje fibers
22
CONDUCTION Contraction begins at the heart apex and progresses upwards
milking action of ventricular contraction and the spiral arrangement of the ventricular muscle fibers twist and wring out the blood
23
HEART CONDUCTION
24
CONTROL OF CONTRACTION
brain is able to affect heart rate via 1) parasympathetic nerve impulses heart-slowing 2) sympathetic nerve impulses increase heart rate

CARDIAC RHYTHM Systole Diastole normal resting 70-80 beats/min
Contraction Diastole Expansion
27
VENTRICULAR DIASTOLE during ventricular diastole cusps hang loosely into ventricular chamber
28
VENTRICULAR SYSTOLE during (at start of ) ventricular systole the resulting increased blood pressure developing in the ventricle forces the flaps up together shutting the AV valves
29
VENTRICULAR SYSTOLE semilunar valves forced open
30
VENTRICULAR DIASTOLE semilunar valves closed from back flow pressure of aortic and pulmonary trunks
31
HEART SOUNDS Lubb - dupp sounds are due to vibrations in the heart tissues created as the blood flow is suddenly increased or slowed with the contraction and relaxation of the heart chambers created with the opening and closing of the valves
32
HEART SOUNDS closing of valves causes vibrations in heart wall
“lubb-dupp” sound of heartbeat “lubb” S1 lower, louder closing of AV valves start of ventricular systole “dupp” S2 softer, sharper closing of semilunar valves end of ventricular systole
33
ELECTROCARDIGRAM Comprehensive image of the hearts electrical activity
supplies a composite recording of all action potentials produced by nodal and muscle cells three principle deflections P wave QRS complex T wave
34
EKG COMPONENTS
35
EKG COMPONENTS
36
P WAVE Signal from the SA node spreads through the atria
atrial systole
37
QRS COMPLEX Firing of SA node ventricular systole
38
S-T SEGMENT Following ventricular contraction and the QRS complex is a brief period of low electrical activity On the electrocardiogram this appears as the S-T segment
39
T WAVE Ventricular repolarization is represented by the T-wave on the electrocardiogram The T-wave deflection is also in the same direction of the largest deflection of the QRS complex
40
EKG SUMMARY depolarization repolarization
41
READING EKG Important to note the size of the deflection waves at certain time intervals
42
ENLARGEMENT OF P-WAVE Indicates enlargement of the atria
atrial stenosis mitral valve narrows blood backs into the left atrium and there is an expansion of the atrial wall
43
LENGTHENED P-R INTERVAL
Occurs because the heart tissue, covered by the P-Q interval, namely the atria and A-V node is scarred or inflamed Impulse, as a result, travels at a slower rate and the interval is lengthened Atherosclerotic disease Rheumatic fever
44
ENLARGED Q-WAVES AND R-WAVES
Enlarged R wave generally indicates enlarged ventricles Enlarged Q-wave may indicate a myocardial infarction
45
S-T SEGMENT Elevated S-T segment acute myocardial infarction
Depressed S-T segment heart muscle receives insufficient oxygen
46
T-WAVE Flat when the heart muscle is receiving insufficient oxygen
May be elevated during hyperkalemia High levels of potassium in bloodstream
47
CARDIAC CYCLE 1) Ventricular filling 2) Atrial systole
3) Isovolumetric ventricular contraction 4) Rapid ventricular ejection 5) Isovolumetric ventricular relaxation
48
1) VENTRICULAR FILLING AV valves open due to low ventricular pressure
blood passively enters the ventricles P wave starts
49
2) ATRIAL SYSTOLE SA node fires
contraction of the atrium stops the pulmonary venous and systemic inflow atrial contraction completes the filling of the ventricles pressure in the ventricles increases closing the AV valves phase is indicated by the P wave
50
3) ISOVOLUMETRIC CONTRACTION
ventricular contraction causes the pressure to rise in the ventricles AV valves close blood is not ejected from the ventricles atria relax heart sound S1 phase is indicated by the QRS complex
51
4) VENTRICULAR EJECTION
the pressure in the ventricles exceed the pulmonary and systemic pressures causing the semilunar valves to open ventricle continues to contract rapidly ejecting blood to the aorta and pulmonary trunk
52
4) VENTRICULAR EJECTION
Ventricle contains 130 ml blood EDV (End Diastolic Volume) ventricles eject 54% (ejection fraction) of the EDV during contraction blood remaining behind is called ESV (End Systolic Volume) during rigorous exercise 90% may be ejected ejection fraction is an important measure of cardiac health
53
5) ISOVOLUMETRIC RELAXATION
Ventricles expand causing pressure to drop semilunar valves close as the ventricular pressure falls below the systemic and pulmonary diastolic level
54
5) ISOVOLUMETRIC RELAXATION
ventricular pressures continue to fall until it is slightly below atrial pressure AV valves open blood begins to fill the ventricles phase is indicated by the T wave heart sound S2
55
CARDIAC CYCLE
56
VOLUME CHANGES Ventricles pump as much blood as they receive
both ventricles eject the same volume of blood ESV (leftover) ml atrial diastole ml atrial systole ml total EDV ml stroke volume ml ESV ml
57
VOLUME CHANGES If RV pumped more than LV could handle on return
causes hypertension and edema in the lungs fluid swells the lungs impairing gas exchange
58
VOLUME CHANGES If LV pumped more blood than RV can handle on return
results in hypertension and edema in the body can lead to aneurysms, stroke, kidney failure, heart failure
59
CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
Failure of either ventricle to eject blood effectively can be caused by: 1) myocardial infarcted weakened heart muscle 2) chronic hypertension 3) valvular insufficiency 4) congenital defects
60
CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
Left ventricle failure pulmonary edema shortness of breath sense of suffocation Right ventricle failure systemic edema enlargement of liver swelling of fingers, ankles, feet
61
CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
Left ventricle failure pulmonary edema shortness of breath sense of suffocation Right ventricle failure systemic edema enlargement of liver swelling of fingers, ankles, feet
62
CARDIAC OUTPUT volume pumped by each ventricle per minute HR = 75 bpm
CO = Heart Rate (HR) X Stroke Volume (SV) HR = 75 bpm SV = 70 ml/beat CO = 75 X 70 = 5,250 ml/min = 5.25 L/min total volume of blood is 4-6 L thus entire volume of body’s blood is pumped through each minute vigorous exercise increases CO up to 21 L/min
63
CARDIAC OUTPUT Cardiac output and peripheral resistance determine blood pressure Healthy young adult 120 mm Hg/ 80 mm Hg
64
HEART RATE Normal 72 bpm Tachycardia rate above 100 bpm
stress, anxiety, drugs, disease, elevated body temperature Bradycardia HR below 60 bpm sleep, well trained athlete, low body temperature
65
STROKE VOLUME Governed by three factors 1) pre-load 2) contractility
3) after-load
66
PRE-LOAD Determined by volume of blood in ventricles
stretched myocardial muscle is able to contract more forcefully thus expel more blood and increasing CO
67
CONTRACTILITY Refers to the strength of contraction for a given pre-load measures myocyte receptivity to stimulation solutions of glucagon and calcium chloride are standard emergency treatment for heart attacks digitalis acts as a cardiac stimulant to treat congestive heart failure barbiturates are negative agents which reduce myocyte response to stimulation
68
AFTER-LOAD Blood pressure in arteries outside the semilunar valve
opposes the opening of semilunar valves increased after-load reduces the stroke volume
69
AFTER-LOAD arterial circulation impediments increase after-load scar tissue (lung diseases) emphysema, chronic bronchitis cor pulmonale RV failure due to obstructed pulmonary circulation Emphysema
70
HEART ABORMALITIES Cardiomyopathy
The myocardium functions poorly and the heart is large and dilated
71
MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
72
MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
MI ,“heart attack” Within the lumen of the coronary can be seen a dark red recent coronary thrombosis The dull red color to the myocardium to the lower right of the thrombus is consistent with underlying myocardial infarction
73
MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
left ventricular wall sectioned lengthwise to reveal a recent myocardial infarction The center of the infarct contains necrotic muscle that appears yellow-tan Remaining viable myocardium is reddish- brown
74
MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
Myocardial infarction necrotic tissue
75
MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
histological acute myocardial infarction contraction band necrosis myocardial fibers are beginning to lose cross striations nuclei are not clearly visible many irregular darker pink wavy contraction bands extending across the fibers
76
ATRIAL FLUTTER Cells in the atria set off extra contractions
the atria beats beats per minute early firing can cause premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) often due to irritation of the heart by stimulants, emotional stress, or lack of sleep can lead to ventricular fibrillation
77
VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION
An arrhythmia caused by electrical signals arriving at different regions of the myocardium at widely different times squirming, uncoordinated contractions “bag of worms” no pumping of blood ischemia rapidly follows
78
CARDIAC ARREST A cessation of cardiac output
ventricles may be motionless or in fibrillation
79
DEFIBRILLATION Heart is given a strong electric shock with a pair of electrodes
80
Defibrillation shocks
Depolarizes the entire myocardium and stops the fibrillation hope that the SA node will resume in sinus rhythm Atrial fibrillation Normal sinus rhythm Defibrillation shocks
81
PACEMAKER A pacing system stimulates the heart muscle with precisely timed discharges of electricity cause the heart to beat in a manner very similar to a naturally occurring heart rhythm
82
PACEMAKER The pacemaker sends tiny electrical impulses to start a heartbeat The electrode is designed to relay information (sense) about your heart's own electrical activity to the pacemaker and to deliver electrical impulses (paces) only when the heart needs them
83
PACEMAKER
84
DYNAMIC CARDIOMYOPLASTY
involves harvesting the the Latissimus Dorsi the muscle is wrapped around the surface of the heart the nerve to the muscle is stimulated (with a specialized pacemaker device) allowing the muscle to contract improves the ejection of blood from the heart lessens the symptoms of heart failure
85

DYNAMIC CARDIOMYOPLASTY
87
HYPERTENSION The left ventricle is markedly thickened in this patient with severe hypertension that was untreated for many years hypertension creates a greater pressure load on the heart to induce the hypertrophy
88
AORTIC TEAR a sudden deceleration injury in a vehicular accident can produce a tear in the aorta tear is just distal to the great vessels the tear leads to sudden loss of blood and shock It is widely believed that Princess Diana died from an aortic tear brought on by a sudden deceleration

BACTERIAL INFECTION Endocarditis
blue bacterial colonies on the lower left extending into the pink connective tissue of the valve valves are relatively avascular high dose antibiotic therapy is needed to eradicate the infection
92
BACTERIAL INFECTION patient with infective endocarditis and blood culture positive for Staphylococcus aureus small linear subungual splinter hemorrhage
93
HEART TUMOR heart of a two year old child who died suddenly
at autopsy, a large firm, white tumor mass was found filling much of the left ventricle tumors of the heart are rare
94
HEART TUMOR
95
PULMONARY THROMBOEMBOLUS
Blood clots formed elsewhere in the body can dislodge and move through the larger blood vessels and heart and become lodged in the smaller pulmonary circuit blood vessels causing a blockage or bursting of the blood vessel
96
HEART LUNG MACHINE
97
HEART LUNG MACHINE FEET BLUE BLOOD TO PUMP RED BLOOD TO BODY HEAD
98
ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT A defect involving both the atrial and the ventricular septums allows blood to pass freely between the two ventricles and the atriums
99
ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT The valve apparatus at the junction between atriums and ventricles is "shared" effectively only one valve instead of the normal two Blood flow and pressure in the lung circulation is substantially increased
100
ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT often results in early onset of symptoms with:
breathlessness poor feeding slow weight gain defect is very common in babies with Down syndrome
101
VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECT
102
FOSSA OVALIS depression in interatrial septum
opening which exists in fetal heart foramen ovale RA RV
103
HEART CHANGES AT BIRTH At birth, the first breath inflates the lungs
lowers the resistance to blood flow thus increases the volume of blood flowing through them thereby increasing the amount of blood returning from the pulmonary trunk to the heart all of which results in increased pressure in the left atrium
104
FETAL CIRCULATION
105
FETAL CIRCULATION
106
HEART CHANGES AT BIRTH increased pressure in the left atrium
forces the flap covering the foramen ovale against the interatrial septum blocking off communication between the right and left atrium
107
HEART CHANGES AT BIRTH closure of the ductus arteriosus
takes place almost immediately after birth due to muscular contraction mediated by, bradykinin released from the lungs after the newborn's first breath
108
HEART CHANGES AT BIRTH In some instances, the ductus arteriosus does not obliterate within the first few days leaving a left to right shunt
109
HEART CHANGES AT BIRTH There are two shortcuts; normally, both of them close up at birth or shortly thereafter ductus arteriosus a small blood vessel connecting the pulmonary artery and aorta foramen ovale a small hole between the left and right atria
110
DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS BEFORE AND AFTER
111
HEART CHANGES AT BIRTH Openings and blood vessels close at birth and if they do not two conditions may result: Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO)
112
PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS
113
HEART CHANGES AT BIRTH Either of these conditions can cause fatigue
difficult or rapid breathing failure to grow normally chronic respiratory infections Large openings can lead to heart failure and death
