Valve Disorders
• Murmors - abnormal sounds• Valvular innsufficiency• Stenosis

Valvular InsufficiencyGrowth of scar tissue on the valves as a result of disease (rheumatic fever). Valves do not seal and blood leaks
back (gurgitation) Causes detectable turbulance
![Page 38: Cardiac Anatomy and Physiologykomeili.zaums.ac.ir/uploads/89_314_A_P3.pdf · 2011-11-24 · • Describe the normal anatomy of the heart and peripheral circulatory system. • Name](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040722/5e30edc92d80716963394be1/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
StenosisValvular growths narrow openings &
interfere w/blood flow. Increased pressure is required to force blood thru. Causes heart to work harder.
Valves are roughened which causes turbulence and murmur

• Cardiac output- Amount of blood pumped into the aorta each minute by the heart
• CO = SV X HR• about 4-8 L/ min

Con’t
• Stroke volume- amount of blood ejected from a ventricle with each heart beat- usually 60-100ml
• Affected by:• preload- force exerted by the blood on the

Cardiac Cycle• The heart performs its pumping action over
and over in a rhythmic sequence:• Atrial Diastole- the atrium is relaxed
allowing blood from the body and lungs to fill the atrium
• As the atria fill with blood, the pressure rises above that in the ventricles, forcing the tricuspid and mitral valves to open allowing blood to fill relaxed (diastole) ventricles
![Page 52: Cardiac Anatomy and Physiologykomeili.zaums.ac.ir/uploads/89_314_A_P3.pdf · 2011-11-24 · • Describe the normal anatomy of the heart and peripheral circulatory system. • Name](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040722/5e30edc92d80716963394be1/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Con’t• Then the atria contracts (systole) filling the
ventricles to capacity. This “atrial kick” accounts for 30% of the cardiac output.
• What is atrial fibrillation and how might it affect patients?
• Pressure in the atria and ventricles equalize and the tricuspid and mitral valves begin to close
• Then the ventricles contract (systole) causing ventricular pressure to rise and the aortic and pulmonic valves open

• Composed of cylindrical cardiac cells that partially divide at their ends. These connect with branches of adjacent cells forming a branching and anastomosing network of cells calledsyncytium. At the junctions where branches join are specialized cellular membranes called intercalated discsthat permit very rapid conduction of electrical impulses from one cell to another.

Electrolytes• Cardiac Function - electrical & mechanical
is influenced by electrolyte (imbalance)– sodiums major role is depolarization of
myocardial cells– calcium major role is depolarization phase of
myocardial pacemaker cells & in myocardial contractility
– hypercalcemia - increases contractility– hypocalcemia - decrease contractility &
increases electrical irritability

POLARIZATIONresting membrane potential
• Resting state with no electrical activity• Inside the cell is more negative than outside• K+ - primary intracellular anion• K+ slowly leaks out of cell• Leaving negative charged ions inside

DEPOLARIZATION
• Cardiac muscle cell is stimulated causing the inside of the cell to become more positive
• Na+ diffuses into cell resulting in greater positive charge inside the cell
• Change in charge occurs from the endocardium to the epicardium

REPOLARIZATION
• After the cell depolarizes diffusion of Na+ stops
• K+ is allowed to diffuse out of cell leaving negative ions in the cell
• Occurs secondary to outward diffusion of K+
• Occurs from epicardium to endocardium

Escape Pacemakers & Latent Pacemakers
• Depolarize Automaticity– ischemia, hypoxia, acidosis, electrolyte
imbalance– the farther the escape pacemaker from SA node,
slower it’s firing rate– escape or ectopic beats

Enhanced Automaticity
• Abnormal condition of latent pacemaker cells when their firing rate is increased beyond their inherent rate

Enhanced Automaticity
• Cell membrane becomes abnormally permeable to Na
• Na leaks into cell = sharp rise in phase 4 = depolarization
• Causes atrial, junctional & ventricular ectopicbeats
• Causes– increased
catecholamines– dig toxicity– hypoxia, hypercarbia– ischemia, infarction– hypokalemia,
hypercalcemia– Starling’s Law– Atropine

Re-Entry
• Condition in which the progression of an electrical impulse is delayed or blocked in the coduction system
• Impulse is conducted normally through rest of system
• Delayed impulse goes through & goes back into cells already depolarized

Con’t
• Carotid Artery Bruit- turbulent blood flow through a vessel indicative of partial blockage
• Pulse- rate and regularity, equality• Skin- pale and diaphoretic, indicative of
peripheral vasoconstriction and sympathetic stimulation

Angina• Chest discomfort or other related symptom
caused by myocardial ischemia• Myocardial ischemia occurs when the
heart’s demand for O2 exceeds its supply from the coronary circulation
• Pain occurs secondary to the stimulation of nerve endings caused by a build up of lactic acid and CO2 in ischemic tissue

Characteristics
• Typically- heaviness, pressure, squeezing, constriction or pain
• Common sites- upper part of chest, beneath sternum radiating left arm, epigastric; beneath sternum radiating to neck and jaw; epigastric radiating to neck and jaw; left shoulder; intrascapular
• Diaphoresis, nausea, vomiting, weakness

Cause
• Decreased myocardial O2 supply • OR• Increased myocardial O2 demand• IF• Process is not reversed and blood flow
restored severe myocardial ischemia may lead to cellular injury and eventually, infarction

Management
• Reduce O2 demand • Increase blood flow to the myocardium
• What are some methods used to achieve this?
![Page 111: Cardiac Anatomy and Physiologykomeili.zaums.ac.ir/uploads/89_314_A_P3.pdf · 2011-11-24 · • Describe the normal anatomy of the heart and peripheral circulatory system. • Name](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040722/5e30edc92d80716963394be1/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
• O2, rest- increase supply, decrease demand• Beta blockers- reduce heart rate• NTG- increase blood flow by dilating
coronary arteries

Stable
• Remains relatively constant and predictable in terms of severity, presentation, character, precipitating events, response to therapy
• Transient episodes of pain or discomfort related to activities that increase myocardial O2 demand
• Duration- 2-5 minutes, occasionally 5-15 min., > 30 min uncommon

Unstable
• Intermediate severity between stable angina and acute myocardial infarction
• Usually a result of plaque rupture or thrombus formation in a coronary artery and causes a sudden decrease in myocardial blood flow; spasm, HTN, hyperthyroidism, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

widely, may be accompanied by dyspnea

ECG Changes• Myocardial ischemia delays repolarization so
ECG may result in temporary changes in the ST segment and T wave
• ST segment- depression• Ischemia present through full thickness of
myocardium- inverted T wave results• Ischemia present only in the subendocardial layer
T wave remains positive because direction of repolarization remains from the epicardium to the endocardium

Not Characteristic of Angina• Sharp, stabbing pain brought on by respiratory
movement or coughing• Primary location of discomfort in mid- or low
abdomen• Pain reproducable with movement or palpation• Constant pain lasting several hours or intermittant
pain lasting only seconds• Pain radiating to lower extremities
