Overview of the
Cardiovascular System
• The heart propels blood to and from most
body tissues via two basic types of blood
vessels called arteries and veins.
• Arteries are defined as blood vessels that
carry blood away from the heart.
• Veins are defined as blood vessels that
carry blood back to the heart.
• The arteries and veins entering and
leaving the heart are called great vessels.
General Characteristics and
Functions of the Heart
• Blood flow through the heart is
unidirectional because of four valves
within the heart.
• The heart is functionally two side-by-side
pumps that work at the same rate and
pump the same volume of blood.
– One pump directs blood to the lungs.
– One pump directs blood to most body tissues.
General Characteristics and
Functions of the Heart
• The heart generates blood pressure
through alternate cycles of the heart wall’s
contraction and relaxation.
• Blood pressure is the force of the blood
pushing against the inside walls of blood
vessels.
• A minimum blood pressure is essential to
circulate blood throughout the body.
Pulmonary and Systemic
Circulations
The cardiovascular system consists of two
circulations:
1. Pulmonary—right side of the heart and the
pulmonary arteries and veins; conveys blood to
the lungs and back to the left side of the heart
2. Systemic—left side of the heart and arteries
and veins; conveys blood to most body tissues
and back to the right side of the heart
Cardiovascular System
Figure 22.1
Position of the Heart
• Slightly left of midline deep to the sternum
in a compartment of the thorax known as
the mediastinum
Figure 22.2
Position of the Heart
• During development, the heart rotates
such that the right side or right border
(primarily formed by the right atrium and
ventricle) is located more anteriorly.
• The left side or left border (primarily
formed by the left atrium and ventricle) is
located more posteriorly.
Position of the Heart
• The posterosuperior surface of the heart is
mainly the left atrium and is called the
base of the heart.
• The superior border is formed by the
great arterial vessels and the superior
vena cava.
• The inferior conical end is called the apex.
• The inferior border is formed by the right
ventricle.
Position of the Heart
Figure 22.2
Pericardium
• The heart is enclosed within a tough sac
called the pericardium
• Restricts heart
movements so
that it moves only
slightly within the
thorax
Figure 22.2
Pericardium
Composed of two parts:
1. Fibrous pericardium—outer covering of
tough, dense connective tissue
2. Serous pericardium—composed of two
layers:
•
•
parietal layer—lines the inner surface of the
fibrous pericardium
visceral layer (epicardium)—covers the outer
surface of the heart
– the small space between the parietal and visceral layers is
called the pericardial cavity
Pericardium
Figure 22.3
Anatomy of the Heart Wall
The heart wall consists of three distinctive layers
(from superficial to deep):
1. Epicardium—consists of the visceral layer of
the serous pericardium and areolar connective
tissue
2. Myocardium—cardiac muscle; thickest of the
three layers
3. Endocardium—internal surface of the heart
chambers and external surface of the heart
valves
Anatomy of the Heart Wall
Figure 22.4
External Heart Anatomy
• Composed of four hollow chambers: two smaller and
superior atria (sing., atrium) and two larger inferior
ventricles
• The anteroinferior borders of the atria form a muscular
extension called the auricle
• The atria and ventricles are separated from each other
by a relatively deep groove called the coronary sulcus
• The anterior interventricular sulcus and posterior
interventricular sulcus are located between the right
and left ventricles and run from the coronary sulcus
toward the apex of the heart

Internal Heart Anatomy:
Chambers and Valves
The heart possesses four chambers:
1. Right atrium
2. Right ventricle
3. Left atrium
4. Left ventricle
The heart also possesses four valves:
1. Right atrioventricular (tricuspid)
2. Pulmonary semilunar
3. Left atrioventricular (bicuspid or mitral)
4. Aortic semilunar
Right Atrium
Receives venous blood from heart, the muscles,
and systemic circulation; three veins drain into the
right atrium:
1. Superior vena cava
2. Inferior vena cava
3. Coronary sinus
Separating the right atrium from the right ventricle
is the right atrioventricular valve (tricuspid valve)

Right Atrium
• Deoxygenated venous blood flows from
the right atrium to the right ventricle
through the right atrioventricular valve.
• The right atrioventricular valve is forced
closed when the right ventricle begins to
contract, preventing blood backflow into
the right atrium.
Right Ventricle
• Receives deoxygenated venous blood
from the right atrium
• An interventricular septum forms a thick
wall between the right and left ventricles
• The inner wall of each ventricle displays
large, irregular muscular ridges called
trabeculae carneae

Right Ventricle
• There are typically three cone-shaped muscle
projections inside the right ventricle called papillary
muscles.
• The papillary muscles anchor thin strands of strong
connective tissue made up of collagen fibers called
chordae tendineae.
• The chordae tendineae attach to three cusps of the
(tricuspid) right atrioventricular valve.
• Cusps are triangular flaps that hang down into the
ventricle.
• The chordae tendineae prevent the cusps from
prolapsing into the right atrium when the right ventricle
contracts.

Right Ventricle
• At the superior end or roof of the ventricle
is a smooth area called the conus
arteriosus.
• Beyond the conus arteriosus is the
pulmonary semilunar valve, which
marks the end of the ventricle and the
beginning of the pulmonary trunk.
Semilunar Valves
• Two of them: pulmonary and aortic
• Located in the roof of right and left ventricles,
respectively
• Each valve is composed of three thin, halfmoon-shaped, pocketlike semilunar cusps
• When ventricles contract, blood pushes cusps
against the arterial trunks
• When ventricles relax, some blood flows back
toward the ventricles, enters the pockets of the
cusps and forces them toward midline, thus
closing the valve
Valves of the Heart
Figure 22.7
Left Atrium
• Oxygenated blood from the lungs travels
through the pulmonary veins to the left atrium.
• The left atrium is separated from the left
ventricle by the left atrioventricular valve,
which is also referred to as the bicuspid or mitral
valve.
• This valve only has two triangular cusps.
• This valve is forced shut when the left ventricle
contracts in a similar fashion to the closing of the
right atrioventricular valve.
Left Ventricle
• The wall is typically
three times thicker
than the right
ventricular wall.
Figure 22.8
Left Ventricle
• The left ventricle has to pump blood to the
entire body, except for the lungs, and
therefore has to generate a greater blood
pressure.
• At the superior end or roof of the left
ventricle is the aortic semilunar valve,
which marks the end of the left ventricle
and the beginning of the aorta.
Valves of the Heart
Valves of the Heart
Coronary Circulation
•
•
The right and left coronary arteries
travel within the coronary sulcus and
supply the heart wall muscle with oxygen
and nutrients.
The coronary arteries are the only
branches given off by the ascending
aorta just superior to the aortic semilunar
valve.
Coronary Arteries
Figure 22.9
Right Coronary Artery
Branches into two arteries:
1. Marginal artery—supplies the right
border of the heart
2. Posterior interventricular artery—
supplies the posterior surface of the left
and right ventricles
Left Coronary Artery
Branches into two arteries:
1. Anterior interventricular artery—also
called the left anterior descending artery,
supplies the anterior surface of both
ventricles and most of the interventricular
septum
2. Circumflex artery—supplies the left
atrium and ventricle
Coronary Veins
Venous return of blood from the heart wall muscle
occurs through three major veins:
1. Great cardiac vein—runs alongside the
anterior interventricular artery
2. Middle cardiac vein—runs alongside the
posterior interventricular artery
3. Small cardiac vein—travels close to the
marginal artery
All three of the above veins drain into a large vein
called the coronary sinus that drains into the right
atrium.
Coronary Veins
Figure 22.9
Conducting System of the Heart
• The myocardium is composed of cardiac muscle
fibers.
• Cardiac muscle fibers contract as a single unit
because they are all connected with low
resistance cell-to-cell junctions called gap
junctions.
• Gap junctions comprise the intercalated discs
shared by adjacent cardiac muscle fibers.
• Therefore, an electrical impulse is distributed
immediately and spontaneously throughout the
myocardium.

Conducting System of the Heart
• The heart exhibits autorhythmicity, which
means it is capable of initiating its own heartbeat
independent of external nerves.
• The electrical impulse that initiates the heartbeat
comes from specialized cardiac muscle cells
called the sinoatrial (SA) node or the
pacemaker.
• The SA node is located on the posterior wall of
the right atrium adjacent to the opening of the
superior vena cava.
• The SA node generates 70–80 impulses per
minute under parasympathetic control.
Conducting System of the Heart
• Impulses from the SA node travel to the left
atrium and the atrioventricular (AV) node
located in the floor of the right atrium.
• Electrical activity then leaves the AV node into
the atrioventricular (AV) bundle (bundle of
His), which extends into the interventricular
septum.
• Once within the septum, the AV bundle divides
into left and right bundles.
Conducting System of the Heart
• These bundles pass the impulse to
conduction cells called Purkinje fibers
that begin at the apex of the heart.
• The Purkinje fibers spread the impulse
superiorly from the apex to all of the
ventricular myocardium.

Purkinje fibers
5 The muscle impulse is delivered to Purkinje
fibers in each ventricle and distributed
throughout the ventricular myocardium.
Innervation of the Heart
• The heart, like most other organs, is
innervated by both the sympathetic and
parasympathetic divisions of the
autonomic nervous system.
• The anatomical components of both
divisions make up the coronary plexus.
• Autonomic innervation does not initiate a
heartbeat, but it can increase or decrease
the rate of the heartbeat.
Innervation of the Heart
Figure 22.12
Sympathetic Innervation
• Starts with neurons located in T1–T5
segments of the spinal cord
• Preganglionic axons enter the sympathetic
trunk and synapse on ganglionic neurons.
• Postganglionic axons project from all three
cervical ganglia and travel to the heart via
cardiac nerves.
• Sympathetic input to the heart increases
the rate and force of heart contractions.
Parasympathetic Innervation
• Starts with neurons in the medulla
oblongata via the left and right vagus
nerves (CN X)
• Decreases heart rate but generally has no
effect on force of contraction
Coordinated Sequence of Heart
Chamber Contractions
1. SA node generates an impulse.
2. Both atria contract almost simultaneously
(systole) while ventricles are relaxing
(diastole).
3. Impulse goes to AV node and then to the
ventricles.
4. Ventricles contract (systole) while atria
relax (diastole).
