Which nerves supply sympathetic fibres to the heart?

Sympathetic fibers to the heart are primarily supplied by the cardiac branches of the sympathetic trunk, which originate from the cervical and upper thoracic spinal segments (T1-T5). Specifically, the superior, middle, and inferior cardiac nerves arise from the cervical sympathetic ganglia and provide sympathetic innervation to the heart, influencing heart rate and contractility. These fibers release norepinephrine, which enhances cardiac output during times of stress or increased activity.
