Extrinsic Factors Influencing Stroke Volume
• Contractility is the increase in contractile strength,
independent of stretch and EDV
• Increase in contractility comes from:
• Increased sympathetic stimuli
• Certain hormones
• Ca2+ and some drugs
• Agents/factors that decrease contractility include:
• Acidosis
• Increased extracellular potassium
• Calcium channel blockers

Contractility and Norepinephrine
• Sympathetic
stimulation releases
norepinephrine and
initiates a cyclic AMP
second-messenger
system

Regulation of Heart Rate: Autonomic Nervous
System
• Sympathetic nervous system (SNS) stimulation is
activated by stress, anxiety, excitement, or exercise
• Parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) stimulation is
mediated by acetylcholine and opposes the SNS
• PNS dominates the autonomic stimulation, slowing
heart rate and causing vagal tone

Bainbridge Reflex
• Bainbridge (atrial) reflex – a sympathetic reflex
initiated by increased blood in the atria
• Causes stimulation of the SA node
• Stimulates baroreceptors in the atria, causing
increased SNS stimulation

Chemical Regulation of the Heart
• The hormones epinephrine and thyroxine increase
heart rate
• Intra- and extracellular ion concentrations must be
maintained for normal heart function

Output

Homeostatic Imbalances
• Hypocalcemia – reduced ionic calcium depresses the
heart
• Hypercalcemia – dramatically increases heart
irritability and leads to spastic contractions
• Hypernatremia – blocks heart contraction by
inhibiting ionic calcium transport
• Hyperkalemia – leads to heart block and cardiac
arrest

Homeostatic Imbalances
• Tachycardia – heart rate over 100 beats/min
• Bradycardia – heart rate less than 60 beats/min

Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
• Congestive heart failure (CHF), caused by:
• Coronary atherosclerosis
• Increased blood pressure in aorta
• Successive myocardial infarcts
• Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM)

Developmental Aspects of the Heart
• Embryonic heart chambers
• Sinus venous
• Atrium
• Ventricle
• Bulbus cordis

Developmental Aspects of the Heart
• Fetal heart structures that bypass pulmonary
circulation
• Foramen ovale connects the two atria
• Ductus arteriosus connects pulmonary trunk and the
aorta

Age-Related Changes Affecting the Heart
• Sclerosis and thickening of valve flaps
• Decline in cardiac reserve
• Fibrosis of cardiac muscle
• Atherosclerosis
