Cardiac Muscle ContractionHeart muscle:Is stimulated by nerves and is self-excitable (automaticity)Contracts as a unitHas a long (250 ms) absolute refractory periodCardiac muscle contraction is similar to skeletal muscle contraction

Heart Physiology: Intrinsic Conduction SystemAutorhythmic cells:Initiate action potentials Have unstable resting potentials called pacemaker potentialsUse calcium influx (rather than sodium) for rising phase of the action potential

Heart Physiology: Sequence of ExcitationSinoatrial (SA) node generates impulses about 75 times/minuteAtrioventricular (AV) node delays the impulse approximately 0.1 second
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Heart Physiology: Sequence of ExcitationImpulse passes from atria to ventricles via the atrioventricular bundle (bundle of His)AV bundle splits into two pathways in the interventricular septum (bundle branches)Bundle branches carry the impulse toward the apex of the heartPurkinje fibers carry the impulse to the heart apex and ventricular walls

Heart SoundsHeart sounds (lub-dup) are associated with closing of heart valvesFirst sound occurs as AV valves close and signifies beginning of systole (contraction)Second sound occurs when SL valves close at the beginning of ventricular diastole (relaxation)
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Cardiac CycleCardiac cycle refers to all events associated with blood flow through the heartSystole contraction of heart muscleDiastole relaxation of heart muscle
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Phases of the Cardiac CycleVentricular filling mid-to-late diastoleHeart blood pressure is low as blood enters atria (passively) and flows into ventriclesAV valves are open, then atrial systole occurs

Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Cardiac Output (CO) and ReserveCardiac Output is the amount of blood pumped by each ventricle in one minuteCO is the product of heart rate (HR) and stroke volume (SV)HR is the number of heart beats per minuteSV is the amount of blood pumped out by a ventricle with each beatCardiac reserve is the difference between resting and maximal CO
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Cardiac Output: ExampleCO (ml/min) = HR (75 beats/min) x SV (70 ml/beat)CO = 5250 ml/min (5.25 L/min)
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Regulation of Stroke VolumeSV = end diastolic volume (EDV) minus end systolic volume (ESV)EDV = amount of blood collected in a ventricle during diastoleESV = amount of blood remaining in a ventricle after contraction
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Factors Affecting Stroke VolumePreload amount ventricles are stretched by contained blood Contractility cardiac cell contractile force due to factors other than EDVAfterload back pressure exerted by blood in the large arteries leaving the heart
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Frank-Starling Law of the HeartPreload, or degree of stretch, of cardiac muscle cells before they contract is the critical factor controlling stroke volumeSlow heartbeat and exercise increase venous return to the heart, increasing SVBlood loss and extremely rapid heartbeat decrease SV
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Preload and AfterloadFigure 18.21
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Extrinsic Factors Influencing Stroke VolumeContractility is the increase in contractile strength, independent of stretch and EDVIncrease in contractility comes from: Increased sympathetic stimuliCertain hormonesCa2+ and some drugs
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Extrinsic Factors Influencing Stroke VolumeAgents/factors that decrease contractility include:AcidosisIncreased extracellular K+Calcium channel blockers
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Contractility and NorepinephrineSympathetic stimulation releases norepinephrine and initiates a cyclic AMP second-messenger systemFigure 18.22
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Regulation of Heart RatePositive chronotropic factors increase heart rateCaffeineNegative chronotropic factors decrease heart rateSedatives
Chapter 18, Cardiovascular System
Regulation of Heart Rate: Autonomic Nervous SystemSympathetic nervous system (SNS) stimulation is activated by stress, anxiety, excitement, or exercise Parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) stimulation is mediated by acetylcholine and opposes the SNS PNS dominates the autonomic stimulation, slowing heart rate and causing vagal toneIf the Vagus Nerver was cut, the heart would lose its tone. Thus, increasing the heart rate by 25 beats per minute.

Atrial (Bainbridge) ReflexAtrial (Bainbridge) reflex a sympathetic reflex initiated by increased blood in the atriaCauses stimulation of the SA nodeStimulates baroreceptors in the atria, causing increased SNS stimulation
