b) Coronary sinus
c) Left circumflex artery
d) Left anterior descending artery - CORRECT ANSWER - d) Left anterior descending
artery
Feedback:
0) LAD courses through anterior interventricular groove,
1.) Middle coronary veins courses through the posterior interventricular groove.
2.) Left circumflex courses within the left atrioventricular groove.
3.) Coronary sinus-posterior atrioventricular groove
A 50 yrs. old male presents with a intermittent non- specific chest pain. The EF% is 40%. The
E/A ratio is 2.2. What grade of diastolic dysfunction does he have, if any?
a) Grade I
b) Not enough information given
c) Grade II
D) Grade lll - CORRECT ANSWER - D) Grade lll
Feedback:
,An abnormal EF% and high E/A ratio indicate Grade III dysfunction. When the e/a ratio is over
2.0 in patient with a low EF.
The normal range for cardiac stroke volume is :
a) 70-100 liters/min
b) 50-60cc
c) 4-8 liters/min
d) 70-100cc - CORRECT ANSWER - d) 70-100cc
Which of the following correctly describes the isovolumic contraction period?
a) The volume is constant in all 4 chambers but the pressure in the ventricles increases
b) The pressure is constant in all 4 chambers but the volume in the ventricles decreases
c) The pressure is constant in all 4 chambers but the volume in the ventricles increases
d) The volume is constant in all 4 chambers but the pressure in the ventricles decreases -
CORRECT ANSWER - a) The volume is constant in all 4 chambers but the pressure in the
ventricles increases
Feedback:
For isovolumic relaxation period- the volume constant in all 4 chambers but the pressure in the
ventricles decreases.

,a) RCC
b) LCC
c) Non- coronary cusp
d) Septal coronary cusp - CORRECT ANSWER - c) Non- coronary cusp
Feedback:
The rcc and lcc are adjacent to the ventricular septum.

Feedback:
1. Hepatic vein joint the IVC just inferior to its entrance into RA.
2. SVC enters the superior posterior aspect of the RA.
At what point in the cardiac cycle is the LA at its greatest dimension?
a) mid systole
b) end systole
c) early diastole
d) end diastole - CORRECT ANSWER - b) end systole
, _______ causes deformation of the pulmonary valve leading to the display of an "a" wave on the
m-mode tracing.
a) Pericardial effusion
b) Pulmonary HTN
c) The right ventricular contraction
d) The right atrial contraction - CORRECT ANSWER - d) The right atrial contraction
