    Introduction Complete atrioventricular canal defect (CAVC) is a heart condition in which there is a large hole in the center of the heart and only one heart valve. Normally‚ the heart is divided into four chambers‚ and there is one valve on each side of the heart. The chambers on the right side of the heart receive blood from the body and pump it to the lungs where the blood gets oxygen. The chambers on the left side of the heart get the oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pump it back out to the

    Cardiovascular System Anatomy & Physiology The heart is the pump responsible for maintaining adequate circulation of oxygenated blood around the vascular network of the body. It is a four-chamber pump‚ with the right side receiving deoxygenated blood from the body at low presure and pumping it to the lungs (the pulmonary circulation) and the left side receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it at high pressure around the body (the systemic circulation). The myocardium (cardiac

    Introduction In this lab‚ I looked at how exercise affects a person’s heart rate (BPM)‚ systolic pressure‚ diastolic pressure‚ and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP). Heart rate is measured by beats per minute while systolic and diastolic pressure are measured by millimeters of Mercury. I found the MAP by the following equation‚ MAP= Diastolic Pressure + ⅓(Systolic-Diastolic). We found out that heart rate and systolic pressure were highest right after and during exercise‚ while diastolic pressure and

    Exercise 1 (20 marks) 1. What happens to the blood pressure and heart rate when the arterial resistance is increased? When arterial resistance is increased‚ the blood pressure increases and heart rate decreases. For instance‚ when arterial resistance increased to 150%‚ systolic blood pressure increases to 132.8mmHg‚ diastolic pressure increases to 82.1 mmHg‚ and heart rate decreased to 51.8/min. 2. What might give rise to condition with increased

    The mechanism of heart contraction and relaxation (mechanical restitution) is the basic of cardiac functioning. This mechanical restitution is driven by calcium movement and concentrations. An increase in cystolic calcium concentration causes contraction in myocardium. Calcium from the extracellular fluid enters the cardiomyocyte through the L-type Ca2+ channels after being propagated by the cardiac action potential which depolarises the cell. This flood of calcium triggers more calcium release
