Describe the flow of blood through the heart
RA>tricuspid>RV>pulm valve> pulm artery> lungs> pulm vein> LA> mitral> LV> aortic
valve> aorta>body> SVC/IVC
What anatomical structures does the heart sit in
2-5 ICS (intercostal space) to LMCL(left midclavicular line)
pericardium
a sac lining the outer layer of the heart, pericardial fluid prevents friction
S1 heart sound and closure of what valves
systole or diastole?
'LUB' closure of atrioventricular valves or (mitraL and TRIcuspid)
systole
S2 heart sound and closure of what valves
systole or diastole?
'DUB' closure of semilunar valves or (aortic and pulmonic)
diastole
,S3 can be heard when?
Early diastole S1——S2-S3—S1
what is cause of S3
rapid filling of ventricles, can be due to volume overload in ventricles (CHF and valve
regurg)
when is S4 heard?
Late diastole S1——S2——S4-S1
what causes an S4
When remaining 20@ of ventricle fills, can be due to HTN because LV is stiff due to

40-60
conduction rate of ventricles
20-40
P wave indicates?
atrial depolarization (contraction)
QRS indicates
ventricular depolarization (contraction)
T wave represents
ventricular repolarization (filling)
contraction/depolarization is:
systole/S1 or diastole/S2?
systole
what valves are open during systole/contraction/S1
