This begins with deoxygenated blood from the body that that is pumped to the lungs.
What is pulmonary circulation?
Describe normal heart tones for S1 and S2
Lub for S1 ans Dub for S2 (Lub Dub Lub Dub)
These structures help prevent back flow between chambers of the heart
What are valves?
These are the anatomical landmarks used to assess Cardiac
What is anterior/ posterior triangle of neck and auscultatory sites of precordium?
This is the amount of blood pumped by the heart every minute
What is 4-6L
This carries oxygenated blood to the body
What is systemic circulation?
True or False
A systolic murmur occurs with a healthy heart or with heart disease, while a diastolic murmur always indicates heart disease
True
These are the two parts of each side of the heart.
What are the Atrium and Ventricle?
Turbulent flow outside the heart in arteries
What is a bruit?
This is what valves prevent.
What is backflow?
This is the rhythmic movement of blood through the heart
What is the Cardiac Cycle?
This signals a weak contraction of the ventricles, occurs with atrial fibrillation, premature beats, and heart failure?
What is a pulse deficit?
This tough, fibrosis, double walled sac surrounds and protects the heart
What is the pericardium
The auscultatory sites you will make sure to listen to on every patient
What are AO, PA, LA, RA, RV, LV?
These are the letters used to name segments on an ECG.
What are PQRST?
These return freshly oxygenated blood to the left side of the heart
What are the pulmonary veins
This is a symptom of left-sided heart failure
What is lung problems?
This is where the atrioventricular valve is?
What is the tricuspid?
Assessed with roman numerals 1-6, starting soft to loud.
What is murmur intensity?
These are the two phases of the cardiac cycle.
What are diastole and systole?
These return unoxiginated venous blood to the right side of the heart
what are the superior and inferior vena cava
This indicates a decreased compliance of the ventricles as in heart failure.
What is abnormal S3?
This divides into bundle branches, and is the receptor of electrical activity from the AV node.
What is the Bundle of His?
Can determine size and location of heart, note displacement or enlargement
What is Percussion of the Precordium
These are the characteristics of sound. Name at least 5/8
What are Rate, Rhythm, pitch, Intensity, Duration, Timing, Quality, and Location.
