Cardiovascular System
![Page 2: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
All but the simplest animals have circulatory systems with 3 main components:
1. A central pump
2. A vascular system
3. The circulating fluid
In the human cardiovascular system,
– The central pump is the heart.
– The vascular system is the blood vessels.
– The circulating fluid is the blood.

1. Blood Vessels
![Page 4: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
1. Blood Vessels
3 types:• ARTERIES carry blood away from the
heart.
• VEINS carry blood toward the heart.
• CAPILLARIES allow for exchange between the bloodstream and tissue cells.
![Page 5: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
All blood vessels are lined by a thin layer of tightly packed epithelial cells.
Structural differences in the walls of the different kinds of blood vessels correlate with their different functions.

THE CAPILLARIES
• Join arterioles to venules
• Extremely narrow and only a single layer of
endothelium thick
• Form vast networks in all regions of the body
• Very important role in homeostasis –
exchange of substances
– Oxygen and nutrients
– Wastes and carbon dioxide
– Excess fluid picked up by lymphatic system

Blood Flow Through Capillary Beds
Notice how small the capillaries are, just wide enough for one red cell
![Page 11: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The walls of capillaries are thin and leaky.
•As blood enters a capillary at the arterial end, blood pressure pushes fluid rich in oxygen, nutrients, and other substances into the interstitial fluid.
•At the venous end of the capillary, CO2 and other wastes diffuse from tissue cells and into the capillary bloodstream.
![Page 12: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

THE VEINS
• Walls are structured similarly to the walls of arteries (3 layers)– Less smooth muscle and connective tissue in
veins
• Often have valves to prevent the backflow of blood– Varicose veins, hemorrhoids
• Great capacity to expand– Serve as blood reservoir
![Page 14: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
VaricosesWeak valves may be due to weak vein walls. Weak walls not so elasticlonger and wider wallsvalves flaps separate blood can flow backward through the valvesThe backflow of blood fills the veins and stretches the walls even moreBigger, swollen veins, often twisted as they try to squeeze into their normal space.
![Page 15: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
2. the Heart
![Page 16: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Pericardium:Sac around the heart
Myocardium:•Major portion of the heart•Consists mainly of cardiac muscle
Endocardium:•Lines the inner surface of the heart•Membrane consisting of connective tissue and endothelium
![Page 17: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The human heart is a muscular organ about the size of a fist.
• It is located under the breastbone.
• It has 4 chambers:
1.Right atrium
2.Left atrium
3.Right ventricule
4.Left ventricule
5.Four Valves between chambers separate them, they are like “doors”.
6.The septum separates the left from the right side.
![Page 18: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Blood arrives first in the atrium then goes to the ventricule.
The valves prevent the blood to go back to the previous chamber

1.The pulmonary circuit
carries blood between the heart and the lungs.
![Page 22: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
2. The systemic circuit
carries blood between the heart and the rest of the body.
![Page 23: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Blood rich in CO2, vessels are blue
Blood rich in O2, vessels are red
![Page 24: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The Heartbeat (Cardiac Cycle)
– Each time the heart beats:– The 2 atria contract simultaneously– Then the 2 ventricles contract simultaneously– All the chambers then relax
– Systole: Contraction of the heart muscle
– Diastole: Relaxation of the heart muscle
![Page 25: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Cardiac Cycle
The heart relaxes and contracts regularly:
– Diastole is the relaxation phase of the heart cycle.
– Systole is the contraction phase.
![Page 26: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The HeartbeatHeart Sounds described as
a “lub-dup” sound• “Lub” sound:
atrioventricular valves closing• “Dup” sound:
semilunar valves closing
A heart murmur (swishing sound) may be due to a leaky valve
http://www.wilkes.med.ucla.edu/Physiology.htm
![Page 27: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The Pacemaker and the Control of Heart Rate
The pacemaker sets the tempo of the heartbeat. It is composed of specialized muscle tissue in the wall of the right atrium.
![Page 28: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The impulses sent by the pacemaker produce electrical currents that can be detected by electrodes placed on the skin. These are recorded in an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG).
An artificial pacemaker:
is a medical device which uses electrical impulses, delivered by electrodes contracting the heart muscles, to regulate the beating of the heart.
![Page 29: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

S
• P Wave occurs just prior to atrial contraction
• QRS complex occurs just prior to ventricular
contraction
• T wave occurs after ventricular contraction
![Page 30: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Blood pressure• Systolic Pressure results from the
contraction of the ventricule
• Diastolic Pressure is the pressure in the arteries when the heart relaxes
• As blood flows from the aorta into the arteries and arterioles, blood pressure falls
• Also, the difference between systolic and diastolic pressure gradually diminishes
• In the capillaries, blood flow is slow and fairly even
![Page 31: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Blood pressure is expressed in millimeters of mercury (mmHg)
Optimal blood pressure for adults is <120 systolic and < 80 diastolic.
High blood pressure or hypertension is:
• persistent systolic blood pressure 140
• and/or diastolic blood pressure 90.
![Page 32: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Blood Return Through VeinsAfter chemicals are exchanged between the blood and body cells, blood returns to the heart via the veins.By the time blood enters the veins, the pressure from the heart has dropped to near zero but blood still moves through the veins against the force of gravity.•As skeletal muscles contract, they help squeeze the blood along.•Valves prevent backflow
![Page 33: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Contain hemoglobin• Red iron-containing pigment• Heme portion binds oxygen• Carbon monoxide can also bind at heme sites
-Combines more readily than oxygen-Can be lethal
![Page 38: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Red Blood Cells
– Last around 120 days
– Destroyed in the liver and spleen• Iron is mostly recycled• Heme portion degraded – bile pigments
– Carbohydrates at the surface will determine blood type
![Page 39: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Anemia
• Too few red blood cells
• Not enough hemoglobin in red blood cells
• 3 causes1. Decreased production of red blood cells
• Iron-deficiency anemia
2. Loss of red blood cells
3. Destruction of red blood cells
![Page 41: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
B. White Blood Cells and Defense
• fight infections and cancer.
• also called leukocytes.
• Larger than red blood cells
• Nucleated
![Page 42: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
White Blood Cells• Granular leukocytes have visible granules in
cytoplasm (enzymes and proteins)– Neutrophils: most abundant leukocyte, phagocytic– Basophils: granules stain deep blue and release
histamine– Eosinophils: stain deep red, fight parasitic worms
• Agranular leukocytes lack visible granules– Lymphocytes-T and B cells, roles in immunity– Monocytes-largest WBC’s, phagocytic dendritic
cells and macrophages
![Page 43: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
C. Platelets and Blood Clotting
Blood contains 2 components that aid in clotting:
– Platelets (thrombocytes) are bits of cytoplasm pinched off from larger cells in the bone marrow.
– Fibrinogen is a membrane-wrapped protein found in plasma.
![Page 44: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

Fibrinogen
Ca2+
1. Blood vessel is punctured.
2. Platelets congregate and form a plug.
3. Platelets and damaged tissue cells release prothrombin activator, which initiates a cascade of enzymatic reactions.
4. Fibrin threads form and trap red blood cells.

Platelets release molecules that convert fibrinogen into fibrin.
– Fibrin is a threadlike protein.– Fibrin forms a dense network to create a patch.
![Page 46: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Hemophilia
• Inherited disorder– Most common type has faulty gene on X
chromosome
• Deficiency in a clotting factor
• Internal bleeding can cause serious damage to cells and tissues
• Hemophilia is treated by blood transfusions and injections of clotting factors
![Page 47: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
6.The Role of the Cardiovascular System in
Homeostasis
![Page 48: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
5.The Role of the Cardiovascular System in
HomeostasisThe cardiovascular system performs several homeostatic functions:
1. Controlling chemical balance
2. Controlling the composition of the blood
3. Regulating body temperature
4. Distributing hormones
5. Defending against foreign invaders
![Page 49: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
What happens when this homeostasis is not maintained?
Cardiovascular Disease
Cardiovascular disease accounts for 40% of all deaths in the United States. The leading cause of death in the United States is heart attack.
![Page 50: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
chronic cardiovascular disease (lasts for a long time or recurrent).
1.The blood vessels become impaired gradually.
2.Vessels are narrowed by plaques of cholesterol and other substances. This fatty material thickens, hardens, and may eventually block the arteries.
3.The tissue will not be supplied with blood and will die.
A. Atherosclerosis
Cause of strokes, heart attack.
![Page 51: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

B. Heart Valve Disease– 90,000 people/year have faulty heart valves
repaired or replaced– May be malformed at birth– More commonly degenerate due to age or
disease
– A narrowing of the aorta is the
most common cause, it results in
the bicuspid valve to prolapse or
“fall” into the ventricule.
![Page 53: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
C. STROKE
• Cerebrovascular accident
• Arteriole in the brain bursts or is blocked by an embolus
• Lack of oxygen to brain can cause paralysis or death
• Warning signs: numbness in hands or face, difficulty speaking, temporary blindness in one eye
![Page 54: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
D. HEART ATTACK
When blood exits the heart, several coronary arteries immediately branch off to supply the heart muscle.
If 1 or more of these arteries is blocked, the heart muscle cells will quickly die.
![Page 55: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Coronary Bypass Operations
• Bypass blocked areas of coronary arteries
• Can graft another vessel to the aorta and then to the blocked coronary artery past the point of blockage
• Gene therapy may be a future treatment
![Page 56: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
• Angioplasty– Catheter is placed in clogged artery– Balloon attached to catheter is inflated– Increases the lumen of the vessel– Stents can be placed to keep vessel open

Heart Transplants
– Transplants usually successful but shortage of donors
– LVAD-left ventricular assist device• Temporary alternative to heart transplant• Tube passes blood from left ventricle to the LVAD• Blood is pumped to the aorta
![Page 58: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
TAH-total artificial heart
– Generally only used on very ill patients– Survival rates are not good but may be
because patients are so ill
![Page 59: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Hypertension (high blood pressure)http://blood-pressure.emedtv.com/high-blood-pressure-video/introduction-to-high-blood-pressure-video.html
– Affects about 20% of all Americans– Usually caused by a narrowing of the arteries,
which means the blood pressure needs to be higher to get the blood through
– Age, gender, and lifestyle can influence blood pressure
• Obesity• Smoking• High dietary salt intake
– Medications can be used to treat this disease
![Page 60: Chapter 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062704/55578e0dd8b42ad4278b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
How can you avoid becoming a heart disease victim?
–Don’t smoke. O2 to the heart and to other tissues
exercise tolerance. HDL (good) cholesterol. blood pressure and heart rate
–Exercise.
–Eat a heart-healthy diet.
