Overview
Large conical shaped muscular organ
Size depends on size of person Usually size of clenched fist
250g = Women 300g = Men
Located within the chest

The Pericardium
Outer layer – Parietal Layer Inner Layer – Visceral Layer
Cavity – Pericardial Cavity
Serous Fluid provides lubrication for the two layers

The Heart Wall
Divided into three layers – The Epicardium (external layer) The Myocardium (middle layer) The Endocardium (inner layer)
![Page 8: Presentation 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062613/544aae5db1af9f5e3e8b45b5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Epicardium
Here is where the coronary arteries lie before entering the myocardium
Contains a lot of fat for protection

The Myocardium
Cells arranged in circular bundles that link all the chambers together
This affects the way the heart contracts

The Endocardium
Lies inside the heart Thin sheet of endothelium on top of
connective tissue Lines the heart chambers and blood
vessels entering and leaving the heart.

The Chambers of the Heart
Four chambers in the Heart
Two Atria – Pump blood into Ventricles
Two Ventricles – Pump blood out of the Heart.
![Page 13: Presentation 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062613/544aae5db1af9f5e3e8b45b5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Right Atrium
Feeds right ventricle Fed by 3 main vessels:
Superior Vena Cava Inferior Vena Cava Coronary Sulcus
Contains de-oxygenated blood ~ 75% saturation Sino-atrial Node & Atrioventricular Node Contains depression called Fossa Ovalis Pressure = 4 mmHG
![Page 14: Presentation 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062613/544aae5db1af9f5e3e8b45b5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Left Atrium
Feeds left ventricle Fed by 4 blood vessels:
Two from left Two from right
Smaller than right atrium Contains oxygenated blood ~ 97-99% saturation Pressure = ~ 8 mmHG
![Page 16: Presentation 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062613/544aae5db1af9f5e3e8b45b5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Right Ventricle
‘Crescent’ shaped Fed by the RA through the Tricuspid Valve Pumps blood into pulmonary system
through the pulmonary valve and into the pulmonary artery
Unique band of muscle – Moderator band Pressure:
Peak Systole = 15–30 mmHG End Diastole = 3–8 mmHG

Left Ventricle
‘Conical’ shaped Fed by the LA through the Mitrial Valve Pumps blood into circulatory system
through the aortic valve and aorta Much thicker muscle mass Pressure:
Peak Systole = 90–140 mmHG End Diastole = 5–12 mmHG

The Atrioventricular Valves
Chordae Tendineae attached to free edge of cusp
Papillary muscles anchor tendons to the heart
Tendons and muscle help prevent inversion of cusps

The Pulmonary Artery & The Aorta
Three layers: Tunica Intima (Inner) Tunica Media (Middle) Tunica Externa (Outer)
Carries blood away from heart = artery PA is only artery to carry de-oxygenated
blood Carries blood to lungs Aorta transports blood to body cells Two coronary arteries branch off here
