Cardiovascular System

From this App you can learn :

Delineate the structure and function of heart and vascular system.

List the major components of human heart, including the four chambers and four valves.

Distinguish the structure and functions of arteries, veins, and capillaries.

Examine how the sequential pattern of contraction and relaxation in the heart results in a normal pattern of blood flow.

Systematize the path of oxygenated and de‐oxygenated blood flow between heart and lungs.

Define “cardiac cycle” and understand the mechanism of blood circulation in the heart.

Define “pacemaker of the heart” and discuss how the SA and AV nodes control the contractions of the heart muscle.

Describe the way the electrocardiogram (ECG) is recorded, the waves of the ECG, and the relationship of the ECG to the electrical axis of the heart.

Name the common cardiac arrhythmias and describe the processes that produce them.

Understand the basis of disease states where components of blood and vasculature are abnormal or dysregulated.

Explore the different diagnostic resources available for treating cardiovascular diseases.
