Study Notes
Heart Murmurs
- Caused by heart valve stenosis or backflow of the valves
Lidocaine
- Blocks sodium channels
QRS Complex
- Represents ventricular depolarization
- P wave represents atrial depolarization
Glucose in Urine
- Indicates kidney disease
Platelets
- Clot blood
Collecting Tubule
- Absorbs sodium
- Secretes potassium
Isovolumetric Contraction
- Increases ventricular pressure
Cardiac Output
- Average cardiac output for 75 bpm is 5 liters.
Alpha 1 Receptors
- Cause vasoconstriction
Heart Sounds
- "Lub" sound caused by closure of the AV valves
- "Dub" sound caused by closure of the semilunar valves
- Pulmonary valve sounds are heard on the right side of the chest in the 2nd intercostal space
- Aortic valve sounds are heard on the right side of the chest in the 2nd intercostal space
- Tricuspid valve sounds are heard on the left side of the chest in the 5th intercostal space
- Bicuspid valve sounds are heard on the left side of the chest in the 5th intercostal space
Beta 1 Receptor Function
- Positive inotropic effect, meaning it increases the strength of heart muscle contraction
ADH
- Secreted when dehydrated
- Increases water reabsorption
Proximal Tubule
- Reabsorbs 67% of sodium
Bilirubin
- Dead blood cells are converted to bilirubin after 120 days
Microcytic Anemia
- Deficiency of folic acid is a characteristic of microcytic anemia
Second-Degree AV Block
- P wave without associated QRS complex
Ventricular Repolarization
- Occurs during the QT interval
- Ventricles are fully depolarized during the QRS complex
Aldosterone
- Increases sodium reabsorption in the kidney
Ventricular Action Potential Phases
- Review and understand the phases of ventricular action potential
Basophils
- Release histamine
Isovolumetric Relaxation
- Phase 1 of the heart cycle
SA Node Action Potential - Phase 4
- Decrease in potassium conduction
Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP)
- Reduces aldosterone levels
- Relaxes venous smooth muscles
- Inhibits renin
Angiotensin II
- Stimulates vasoconstriction
- Stimulates aldosterone secretion
- Raises ADH levels
Increased Contractility
- Increased calcium (Ca2+) levels increases contractility of the heart
Propranolol
- Blocks beta 1 receptors
Loop of Henle
- The entire loop of Henle is not permeable to water.
Factors that Increase Renal Sodium Reabsorption
