CORRECT!!!
Where are Beta 1 receptors found? -ANSWER ✔✔Heart and Kidneys
Stimulation of Beta 1 receptors result in an increase of what? -ANSWER
✔✔Heart: Inotropy, Chronotropy, Dromotropy
Kidneys: Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System = Vasoconstriction = Increase
blood pressure
Which node is located at the junction of the superior vena cava and the right
atrium, is typically supplied by the Right Coronary artery, and fires at a rate of 60-
100 bpm. -ANSWER ✔✔SA Node
Atrial depolarization characterized by smooth, round, upright deflection less than
0.11 secs long and less than 2.5mm tall is referred to as what on the ECG? -
ANSWER ✔✔P wave
Carvedilol (Coreg)
Metropolol (Lopressor)
Atenolol (Tenormin)
Propranolol (Inderal)
Bisoprolol (Zebeta)
Acebutolol (Sectral)
, Comolol (Brevibloc) -ANSWER ✔✔Beta Blockers - used for blood pressure and
cardiac problems
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Vasopressin
Dopamine
Phenylephrine
Dobutamine -ANSWER ✔✔Vasopressors
The middle of phase 3 to beginning of phase 4 in the cardiac cycle where cardiac
cells are partially refractory and partially repolarized and certain cells can be
depolarized in response to electrical stimulus. -ANSWER ✔✔Relative Refractory
Period
(Partial flush of the toilet)
Starlings Law -ANSWER ✔✔When end diastolic volume increases, stroke volume
increases as well.
(When more blood is in the ventricles, the cardiac muscle stretches like rubber
band and creates more forceful contraction)
Intrinsic Rate for Ventricles (Purkinje Fibers) -ANSWER ✔✔20-40
Intrinsic Rate for AV Junction -ANSWER ✔✔40-60
