WEEK 1 PART 1 Pericardial space – potential space in between DISTURBANCES IN OXYGENATION the pericardial space which contains pericardial fluid (amount is more or less about 20mL). This Components Involved in Oxygenation: will prevent friction between parietal and Heart – main pumping organ visceral pericardium during cardiac contractions. Lungs – responsible for gas exchange Pericarditis – inflammation of pericardium. If there’s Red Blood Cells – specifically, hemoglobin for inflammation, there will be fluid shifting from transportation of oxygen intravascular to interstitial space. Blood Vessels – pathway for passage of blood. - In short, pag namamaga pericardium, fluid will o Should be patent (walang bara), elastic accumulate pericardial space which is called pericardial effusion.

So, the valves will be thickened and unable to stroke volume open and close adequately. Kaya if there’s endocarditis, - pumps about 60ml/beat or 5L/min there will be valvulitis leading to narrowing or PERICARDIUM – protective covering of the inadequate OPENING of the valves which is called heart. A thin sac enclosing the heart. valvular stenosis. And it does not CLOSE adequately known as valvular regurgitation. *ex. There is mitral stenosis, meaning blood from LA find it difficult to enter LV. In the same way, tricuspid stenosis find it difficult to pump blood from RA to RV. LAYERS: Parietal pericardium – outermost layer Visceral pericardium – inner layer (color yellow sa pic) CHAMBERS: *there should be NO MIXING of blood.
