Study
What are the steps in the clotting of blood?
1. Uncoagulated blood 2. Calcium utilized 3. Prothrombin converts to thrombin 4. Fibrinogen converts to fibrin 5. Clot formation with serum extracted
What is removed from the clot during the separation process?
Serum is removed from the clot.
What does the right side of the heart pump blood to?
Lungs
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor XI?
Plasma thromboplastin antecedent
What is the function of the septum in the heart?
The septum is a muscular wall that divides the right and left sides of the heart.
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor VIII?
Antihemophilic factor
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor I?
Fibrinogen
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor X?
Stuart Prower factor
What is the organ that keeps all blood in the body flowing?
Heart
How many chambers does the heart have?
The heart has four chambers.
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor II?
Prothrombin
Which chamber of the heart does the blood enter first?
The right atrium is where the blood enters first.
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor VII?
Proconvertin
What is removed from the red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets during the separation process?
Plasma is removed from the red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
What does the left side of the heart pump blood to?
All parts of the body
What is the path of blood flow through the heart?
Superior/inferior vena cava -> Right atrium -> Tricuspid valve -> Right ventricle -> Pulmonary semilunar valve -> Pulmonary artery -> Lungs -> Pulmonary vein -> Left atrium -> Bicuspid/mitral valve -> Left ventricle -> Semilunar (aortic) valve -> Aorta
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor IV?
Calcium
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor XII?
Hageman factor
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor IX?
Plasma thromboplastin component
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor III?
Tissue factor
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor XIII?
Fibrin stabilizing factor
What is the preferred name for Coagulation Factor V?
Proaccelerin
Which chamber of the heart does the blood leave after entering it?
The right ventricle is where the blood leaves after entering.
What is the process used to separate plasma or serum from the blood?
Centrifuge spins and separates blood into layers depending on the weight of each layer.
What is the largest artery in the body?
Aorta
What is the flow of blood through the heart?
Right atrium, right ventricle, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary vein, left atrium, left ventricle, aorta
Where does blood oxygenation occur in the body?
Lungs
Which artery in the body carries deoxygenated blood?
Pulmonary artery
Which vein in the body carries oxygenated blood?
Pulmonary vein
What is the function of Endocardium?
It is a membrane layer that lines the inner chambers of the heart.
What is the Myocardium responsible for?
It is the muscle of the heart itself.
What is the Epicardium?
It is the outermost membrane layer of the heart.
Describe Pericardium.
It is a sac that encloses the heart.
What is Endocarditis?
It is the infection of the endocardium of the heart which can destroy the heart if untreated.
What happens when heart valves fail to open or close properly?
Valves may be replaced in open heart surgery.
What do Coronary Arteries supply?
Coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle.
What is the function of Coronary Veins?
Coronary veins remove waste products from the heart.
What is the risk when coronary arteries become occluded?
There is a possibility of a myocardial infarction (MI).
How can surgical techniques help with occluded coronary arteries?
Surgical techniques can correct these occlusions if caught soon enough.
What is the function of the Sinoatrial (SA) node in the heart?
Acts as the heart's pacemaker, causing the atria to contract.
What is the role of the Atrioventricular (AV) node in the heart's electrical system?
Carries the electrical impulse from the SA node to the ventricles.
What is the significance of the Bundle of His (atrioventricular bundle) in heart function?
It carries the electrical impulse from the AV node to the ventricles.
What is the function of Purkinje fibers in the heart's electrical system?
They receive the impulse from the Bundle of His and cause the ventricles to contract.
Which node in the heart is responsible for initiating the heartbeat?
Sinoatrial (SA) node
