• The circulatory system carries nutrient and wastes around the body.
• The Heart and blood vessels together make up the
Circulatory System.
What is the circulatory system?

Lungs
Body cells
Our circulatory system is a double circulatory system.
This means it has two parts parts.
the right side of
the system
deals with
deoxygenated
blood.
the left side of
the system
deals with
oxygenated
blood.

How does the Heart work?
The heart beat begins when the
heart muscles relax and blood
flows into the atria.
STEP ONE
![Page 7: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The atria then contract and
the valves open to allow
blood
into the ventricles.
How does the Heart work?
STEP TWO
![Page 8: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
How does the Heart work?
The valves close to stop blood
flowing backwards.
The ventricles contract ejecting blood from the heart.
At the same time, the atria are
Relaxing again and filling with
blood.
The cycle then repeats.
STEP THREE
![Page 9: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The ARTERY
thick muscle and elastic fibres
-carry blood away from the heart.
the elastic fibres allow the artery to stretch under
pressure
the thick muscle can contract to push the blood
along.
![Page 10: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The VEIN
Veins carry blood towards the heart.
thin muscle and elastic fibres
veins have valves to stop the blood from going in the wrong direction.
body muscles surround the veins so that when they contract they squeeze the veins and push the blood along the vessel.

The CAPILLARY
Capillaries link Arteries with Veins
the wall of a capillaryis only one cell thick
they exchange materials between the blood and other body cells.

Heart Beat
Measure in bpm, beats per minute.
Specialised tissues produce electrical signals which flow down through the heart, causing the atria to contract, then the ventricles.

ECG - Electrocardiogram
Used for diagnosis.
![Page 15: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Normal sinus rhythm
Between 60 and 100 bpm
Regular electrical signal that stimulates rhythmic contractions of the cardiac muscle
![Page 16: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Bradycardia
Brady=Slow
<60bpm
![Page 17: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Pacemaker
Helps heart keep pace if heart rhythm is too slow
![Page 18: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Tachycardia
Tachy = Fast
>100bpm
![Page 19: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Atrial Fibrillation
Erratic electrical signals prevent the atria from relaxing (filling) and contracting (ejecting)
![Page 20: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Ventricular Fibrillation
Erratic electrical signals prevent the ventricles from relaxing and contracting.
Can be lethal in minutes! An electric shock is required to restore normal rhythm.

Defibrillator
![Page 22: Circulatory system 2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062702/554b63fab4c9051b458b535d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Implantable Defibrillator
Sends an electric shock directly into the heart.
Restores normal sinus rhythm if in ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation.
