As we auscultate the heart it is imperative, we understand what part of the heart we are listening to. Cellular senescence is observed when there is obstruction of the coronary circulation to the muscle tissue of the heart. If the left anterior descending artery (a.k.a. “Widow maker”) is occluded, predict an alternative route of blood flow to the myocardium. Start from the left coronary artery.
Under the microscope, I can see a section through one of the chambers of the heart. The myocardium is thick and the endocardium is very thin. In addition, I can see a valve that connects this chamber to the next which has two cusps that prevent backflow from one chamber into another 4. Where in the heart am 1? What does the thickness of the myocardium tell you about this region of the heart? What is the valve called? What does it do? What other valve would you see in this area of the heart? Where is it situated?
Mitral valve prolapse is a disease where the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle doesn’t close completely. What effect would this have on the movement of blood through the heart?
