Introduction
The blood must stay in motion to maintain
homeostasis.
The heart keeps blood moving.
The volume of blood pumped by the heart can
vary widely, between 5 and 30 liters per
minute.

An Overview of the Cardiovascular System
The heart is a small organ; your heart is roughly the size of your clenched fist.
Two closed circuits:
Pulmonary circuit carries carbon dioxide—rich blood from the heart to the lungs and back
Systemic circuit transports oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body and back
The heart has four muscular chambers:
Right and left atria collect blood returning to heart
Right and left ventricles discharge blood into vessels to leave the heart

The Pericardium
The pericardium is the serous membrane
lining the pericardial cavity, which surrounds the heart
Visceral pericardium (epicardium) covers the heart’s outer surface
Parietal pericardium lines the inner surface of the pericardial sac

Structure of the Heart Wall
Three distinct layers:
Epicardium — covers the outside of the heart
Myocardium — cardiac muscle
Endocardium — lines the inside of the heart

Orientation and Superficial Anatomy of the Heart
The heart lies slightly to the left of the midline.
The heart sits at an oblique angle to the longitudinal axis of the body.
The heart is rotated slightly toward the left.
The heart has external sulci that mark internal boundaries.

Heart Anatomy
The Cardiac Cycle
All of the electrical and mechanical events that take place during one heart beat are referred to as one cardiac cycle.
Systole — contraction
Diastole — relaxation

The Electrocardiogram (ECG)
The ECG is a recording of the electrical events in the heart.
P wave — atrial depolarization
QRS complex — ventricular depolarization
T wave — ventricular repolarization
