LAB 3: CARDIOVASCULAR LAB Blood Pressure & Electrocardiogram (ECG) Blood Vessels Veins Arteries transport blood back to heart transport blood from the heart to either lungs or body tissues Capillaries small vessels that transports nutrients, water, oxygen, and pick up cellular wastes Watch - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3ZDJgFDdk0&feature=related Figure 44-26 Circulatory System Diagram Systemic circulation Pulmonary Pulmonary Aorta artery vein Pulmonary circulation Venae cavae Blood Pressure Systolic pressure Ventricles contract maximum pressure between heartbeats Diastolic pressure Ventricles relax minimum pressure between heartbeats Heart Contraction Sinoartrial (SA) node Atrioventricular (AV) node “Pace maker” of heart “Independent” of CNS Electrical “trigger” that causes muscle fibers in atria to contract Delays signal so ventricles can fill Transmits to ventricles Purkinje fiber Carry depolarization waves to right and left ventricle causing their contraction Signal travels from bottom to top Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG) ECG – A recording of the electrical activity of the heart, as a measured through electrodes in the skin. Often used to detect abnormal heart functioning.

EKG when breathing out Heart Rate? EKG when holding breath and tensing muscles as if to breathe out Heart Rate? EKG when under icy water? Heart Rate?
