    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

    • Aldosterone

    Ventricular Action Potential - Phase 2

    • Highest calcium (Ca2+) conductance

    Isovolumetric Relaxation - Pressure

    • Arterial pressure is higher than ventricular pressure during isovolumetric relaxation

    Ventricular Diastole on EKG

    • P wave
    • T wave
