Cardiovascular Study Guide Instructor: Anne Lucero RN, MSN Student name________________ This is a study guide designed to help you review your knowledge base of cardiac anatomy and physiology. List the structures, draw, import pictures from the net, or write a short paragraph, what ever helps you identify your strengths and areas that need more study. We will spend very little time on these items in class. This knowledge is critical as a base of understanding for all Cardiac lectures in Level 3. Please complete prior to week 3, and be prepared to hand it in! 1. Explain the location and functions of the chambers of the heart What structures are found attached and or located in these chambers? 2. Where does the blood supply to the heart come from and what kind of blood supply is it? Where does the blood go when the heart cycle is complete? What about the blood supply to the heart muscle itself? How does this work? 3. The heart muscle is special and is composed of 3 layers, what are they and what can you tell me about them? How can you tell if they have been damaged? 4. The heart valves acts as doors between the chambers of the heart, tell me more about their function and how you can tell if they are having trouble? How can you tell if they are having trouble? 5. Tell me what you know about the electrical system of the heart? How does conduction occur? What Pathophysiology that gets in the way of the heart doing a good pumping job?
