    Study Notes

    Heart Structure

    • The heart has three layers: epicardium (outer), myocardium (middle), and endocardium (inner)
    • Myocardium is the thickest layer, consisting of cardiac muscle, responsible for muscle contraction
    • Endocardium is a thin lining of endothelial cells, providing a smooth surface for blood flow

    Coronary Vessels

    • Coronary arteries originate from the base of the aorta, supplying oxygenated blood to the heart muscle
    • Coronary veins drain deoxygenated blood from the heart muscle back into the right atrium
    • Coronary vessels are located on the exterior of the heart, lying in lines of fat

    Pericardium

    • Pericardium is a connective tissue sac around the heart
    • Fibrous pericardium is the outer layer, protecting the heart
    • Serous pericardium is the inner layer, consisting of two layers with a space between them (pericardial space)
    • The pericardial space contains serous fluid, providing lubrication for heart contractions

    Heart Function

    • The heart acts as a pump, supplying blood to the body and removing waste products
    • The heart has a two-pump system: systemic circulation (left side for the body) and pulmonary circulation (right side for the lungs)

    Systemic Circulation

    • Systemic circulation takes oxygenated blood from the lungs and sends it to the body for cellular respiration
    • Depleted blood is returned to the heart through systemic circulation
    • Left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and sends it to the left ventricle
    • Left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the body via the aorta

    Pulmonary Circulation

    • Pulmonary circulation takes deoxygenated blood from the body and sends it to the lungs
    • In the lungs, blood releases CO2 and picks up O2
    • Right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body and sends it to the right ventricle
    • Right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs
