Functions of the
Circulatory System
• The heart is the pump that circulates blood
to all parts of the body
• Arteries, veins, and capillaries transport the
blood
• Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to the
cells and carries waste products away
• Lymph system returns excess fluid from the
tissues the circulation

Major Blood Circuits
• Blood leaves the heart through arteries and
returns by veins
• Blood circulation routes
– General or system circulation
– Cardiopulmonary circulation
• Changes in the composition of circulating
blood

The Heart
• About 5 inches long and 3.5 inches wide
• Weighs about 1 pound
• Located in the thoracic cavity; the apex of
the heart lies on the diaphragm and points to
the left of the body

The Heart
• After 4 to 5 minutes without blood flow,
brain cells are irreversibly damaged
• Can hear the heartbeat through a
stethoscope
• Cardiac arrest
• Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)

• Education to prepare a technician for
ECG, Holter, and stress testing is
usually a one year certificate program.
• Job prospects are not very high for this
profession since nurses and others may
be trained to do procedures such as

Cardiology Technologists
• Specialize in cardiac catheterization
procedures

Effects of Aging
• Heart muscle fibers replaced by fibrous
tissue
• Heart valves increase in thickness
• Cardiac output decreases
• Changes become more significant when
elderly person becomes physically or
mentally stressed

How to Check a Patient’s Pulse
• There are four areas you can use to
check for a patient’s pulse: carotid,
brachial, radial and pedal
• The most common site is either the
radial or carotid artery
• When taking a patient’s pulse you will
take two fingers, most often your index
and middle finger, and lightly place
them over one of these areas

Pulse Continued
• For a more accurate number the ideal
time to take a pulse is 30 seconds
• You will then take that number and
multiply it by two to get the patient’s
heart rate per minute
• Normal heart rate= 60-100 beats per
minute
