    cusps flatten against the arterial walls as the blood rushes past them. When the ventricles relax‚ the blood flows backward toward the heart‚ it fills the cusps & CLOSES the valves. THE AV VALVES. ~ 2 AV valves are located at each atrial-ventricular junction‚ prevent backflow into the atria when the ventricles are contracting. : 1) Tricuspid Valve-the right AV valve has 3 flexible cusps. 2) The Mitral Valve-the left AV valve with 2 flaps. It is sometimes called the bicuspid valve because of

    leading to a rapid flow of blood into the ventricles. Directional flow to vena cava is restricted to one way flow as the wave of contraction through the atria moves toward the atrioventricular valve. 10% of left ventricular filling is when a person is at rest. This is because most of ventricular filling happens previous to atrial contraction as blood passively goes from the pulmonary veins to the left atrium from there it goes into the left ventricle through the open mitral valve. The T wave represents

    Chapter I Introduction Background of the Study Did you know that all of us are exposed to the risk of electric shock? We are all surrounded by electrical appliances and machinery which exposed us to risk. This study allows us to know the basic information‚ the causes and effects‚ and the preventive measure because according to the National Safety Council there are about 600 to 1000 people die every year from electrocution. It continues to rank as the fourth highest cause of industrial facilities

    Perimembranous Ventricular Defect A defect in the ventricular septum‚ the wall dividing the left and right ventricles of the heart. The extent of the opening may vary from pin size to complete absence of the ventricular septum creating one common ventricle. Perimembranous VSDs are located in the left ventricle outflow tract beneath the aortic valve. They are the most common VSD subtype in the United States‚ occurring 75-80% of cases. Defects may extent into adjacent portions of the ventricular septum.

Based on this background‚ I hypothesise that an increase in the extracellular calcium concentration will lead to an increase in left ventricular pressure due to greater amount of cross-bridges‚ and an increase in

    the heart operates as a pump‚ beginning with the special features of heart muscle itself. Physiology of Cardiac Muscle The heart is composed of three major types of cardiac muscle: atrial muscle‚ ventricular muscle‚ and specialized excitatory and conductive muscle fibers. The atrial and ventricular types of muscle contract in much the same way as skeletal muscle‚ except that the duration of contraction is much longer. Conversely‚ the specialized excitatory and conductive fibers contract only feebly
