    Study Notes

    Oxygen Transport System

    • The respiratory system transmits oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body, ensuring cellular respiration and energy production.

    Cardiovascular System

    • "Cardio" refers to the heart, emphasizing its critical role in circulation within the cardiovascular system.
    • Two main components of the cardiovascular system are the heart and blood vessels, which include arteries, veins, and capillaries.

    Heart Functionality

    • The primary function of the heart is to pump blood throughout the body, delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues while removing waste products.
    • The heart consists of two separate sides: the right side and the left side, each serving distinct purposes in blood circulation.

    Left Side of the Heart

    • The left side of the heart is responsible for receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it into the systemic circulation to supply the body.

    Electrical Activity of the Heart

    • The sinoatrial (SA) node is the part of the heart responsible for generating its own electrical signals, initiating each heartbeat.

    Blood Coloration

    • Oxygenated blood is characterized by its bright red color, resulting from the binding of oxygen to hemoglobin.

    Heart Chambers

    • Chambers of the heart include the atria, where blood is received; the right atrium receives deoxygenated blood, and the left atrium receives oxygenated blood.

    Conduction System Function

    • The conduction system of the heart is responsible for coordinating the timing of heartbeats, ensuring efficient blood flow through rhythmic contractions.

    Deoxygenated Blood Vessels

    • Veins are the type of blood vessels that primarily transmit deoxygenated blood back to the heart.

    Surgical Responsibilities

    • An anesthesiologist examines the patient before an operation and monitors cardiovascular parameters during surgery to ensure patient safety and stability.
