What muscles line the heart?
Pericardium: visceral- lining organ, parietal-= cavity lining Epicardium- surface if the heart Myocardium- muscle wall, cardiac muscle Endocardium- inner lining- chamber walls
What cavities has the highest density of cardiac muscle tissue?
The left ventricle of the heart has the highest density of cardiac muscle tissue because it is responsible for pumping oxygenated blood to the entire body. This chamber experiences the most pressure and workload, requiring a strong muscular wall.
What muscle walls of the heart are called the?
The muscle walls of the heart are called the myocardium. This thick, muscular layer is responsible for the heart's contraction and pumping action. It is located between the inner layer, the endocardium, and the outer layer, the epicardium, which together form the heart's structure. The myocardium varies in thickness depending on the heart chamber, being most prominent in the ventricles.
Which cardiac chamber is closest to the spine?
left atrium
What is the name of the cardiac test that helps in evaluating cardiac chamber size and ventricular function?
Echocardiogram is the cardiac test that helps in evaluating cardiac chamber size and ventricular function. It uses ultrasound waves to create images of the heart's structure and function. It is a non-invasive and commonly used test in cardiology.
What are normal results from a cardiac catheterization?
Normal findings from a cardiac catheterization will indicate no abnormalities of heart chamber size or configuration, wall motion or thickness, the direction of blood flow, or motion of the valves.
What chamber of the heart has the thickest myocardium?
The Left Ventricle has the thickest walls! The left ventricular myocardium is much thicker then the right ventricular myocardium because the left ventricle pumps blood into the aorta which takes blood to the rest of the body. (larger pressure gradient)
What does aneurysmectimy mean?
do you mean aneurysmectomy? it's a surgical precedure to remove an aneurysm. an aneurysm is a circumscribed dilation of an artery or a cardiac chamber, in direct communication with the lumen, usually resulting from the acquired or congential weakness or the wall of the artery or the chamber.
What is the reason for SCD?
Sudden cardiac death is usually caused by ventricular fibrillation (the lower chamber of the heart quivers instead of pumping in an organized rhythm).
Is 223 ammo the same as 5.56mm ammo?
No. Dimension-wise, they are similar, but there are differences in neck angles and case thickness. .223 Remington ammo can be fired in a 5.56 chamber, but 5.56 ammo should never be fired through a .223 Remington chamber.
What fell in the gas chamber in the movie devils arithmetic?
Cyanide- If you inhale or ingest this poision it can cause seizures, cardiac arrest, and of course death. The Jews in the movie were enclosed in a small space and forced to inhale the poision gas from the cyanide pellets poured into the gas chamber.
Is cardiac muscle smooth or straited?
The tissue which makes up cardiac muscle has striations present. The heart, which is made up of special cardiac muscle is composed of lots of branching cells that join into a continuous mass by intercalated discs. Cardiac muscle is also known as striated involuntary muscle. This cardiac muscle tissue forms the bulk of the heart walls of each chamber. The striations in cardiac muscle are irregular, but they are present. Striated muscle is also found in skeltal muscle tissue, skeletal muscle tissue unlike cardiac muscle tissue has a regular striated structure which you can easily see through histolgy.
