4. Chamber of heart right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, left ventricle


Valves tricuspid, pulmonary, mitral, aortic


Septum separates the right and left sides of the heart


Blood flow pathway vena cava, right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle,
pulmonic valve, pulmonic artery, lungs for
oxygenation.


pulmonic veins, left atrium, mitral valve, left ventricle,
aortic valve, aorta and to the body.


pulmonary circulation flow of blood from the heart to the lungs and back to
the heart


systemic circulation circulation that supplies blood to all the body except
to the lungs


A patient asks the nurse to explain the Pulmonary circulation moves blood between the
difference between pulmonary and heart and lungs for gas exchange, while systemic
systemic circulation. circulation delivers oxygenated blood to body
tissues.


Oxygen diffusion IN Moves from lungs to blood due to higher

Myocardium muscular, middle layer of the heart, pumps blood


Papillary Muscles Small muscles attached to valve leaflets


Chordae tendinae Fibers (heart strings) attatched to the tricuspid and
mitral valve which pull it closed when papillary
muscles contract, preventing back flow of blood


Cardiac cycle Phase 1: atrial Filling Both atria relax and fill with blood, a phase known as
diastole. Veins carry blood TO the heart and arteries
carry blood AWAY


Phase 2: Atrial Systole Right flow- contracts pushing deoxygenated blood
through the tricuspid valve in to the right ventricle
Left flow- Contracts pushing oxygenated blood
through the mitral valve in the left ventricle


Phase 3: Ventricular Systole Main pumping phase, both ventricles contract
simultaneously directing blood to distinct
destinations
