What structure represents the parasympathetic innervation of the heart?

Vagus nerve


What is the structure represents the parasympathetic innervation fo the heart?

The parasympathetic innervation of the heart is primarily provided by the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X). The nucleus ambiguus in the medulla oblongata gives rise to the vagus nerve fibers that innervate the heart. These fibers slow down the heart rate by releasing acetylcholine at the SA node.


Does single innervation control heart rate?

Dual innervation refers to an organ receiving?

Dual innervation refers to an organ receiving input from both the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system. This allows for precise regulation of the organ's function by balancing the effects of these two opposing systems. Examples include the heart receiving both sympathetic stimulation (increasing heart rate) and parasympathetic stimulation (slowing heart rate).


What cranial nerve innervates the heart?

The heart is primarily innervated by the autonomic nervous system, specifically through the vagus nerve, which is cranial nerve X. The vagus nerve provides parasympathetic innervation, helping to regulate heart rate and promote a state of rest and digest. Additionally, sympathetic innervation to the heart comes from the sympathetic chain ganglia, but the vagus nerve plays a crucial role in controlling heart function.


What is dual nerve supply?

Dual nerve supply refers to the phenomenon where an organ or structure receives innervation from two different sources, typically from both the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system. This arrangement allows for more nuanced regulation of physiological functions, as one division can stimulate activity while the other can inhibit it. For example, the heart receives dual innervation, enabling it to manage heart rate and contractility effectively in response to varying physiological demands.

Is cardiac plexus transplanted with heart during heart transplant surgery?

No. Since there are now ways to adequately connect the donor nerves to the transplant patient, these nerves are not kept. For this reason, the transplanted heart lacks the innervation of the normal heart.


If you have just placed an advanced airway in a patient with a respiratory condition and his heart rate decreased what BEST explains the decreasing heart rate?

Most likely you have pressed on the vagus nerve that controls parasympathetic innervation to the heart.


What is the difference between heart structure and parts of the heart?

the heart structure is the way that the heart is built and shaped but the parts of the heart is whats in the the heart and what the heart is made out of.
