FIRST AID: Is the immediate care or treatment that
is given to an injured or ill person before professional
                          medical aid can be obtained.
Anatomy and physiology
Cardiovascular system
Anatomy: I - Heart:
- Fist sized organ situated in the center of the chest, between
the sternum and the spine and above the diaphragm.
Surrounded by the lungs except in a small area in front.
(bare area) and the area against the spine.
- Has a hollow tough muscular wall surrounded by the
pericardium.
- It is divided into right and left sides, each has an
atrium & a ventricle.
II - Vascular system
 Arteries:
 Thick walled, carrying blood from the heart under
 high pressure.
 Capillaries:
 Thin walled network of one cell layer.
 Veins:
 Thin walled vessels carrying blood under low
 pressure back to the heart.
  Two coronary arteries originate from the aorta
 encircling the heart to supply the myocardium.

Functions of cardiovascular
            system
 1 – purify the blood through the pulmonary capillary
system.
2 – provide oxygenated blood to all tissues through the
systemic capillary system.

THE HEART beats 60-90 beats per minute during rest .
Respiratory system
4 components:
1 – Airways:
A) Upper airway: nose & mouth, pharynx, larynx.
B) Lower airway: trachea, bronchi, bronchioles.
2 – Neuromuscular system:
A) Respiratory center in the brain.
B) Nerves.
C) Muscles of respiration.( Diaphragm , intercostal
muscles)
D) Chest cage
Cont…
3 – Alveoli:
Millions of minute air sacs made of very delicate thin
membrane of one cell layer. Capillaries are on outer side
(exchange of gases).
4 – Pulmonary vessels:
Heart (Rt ventricle)→pulmonary arteries –dark blood→ fine
capillary network – pick up O2 & expel CO2 in alveoli→
pulmonary veins → heart (Lt ventricle).
Physiology of respiration
- Inspiration is an active process.
- Expiration is a passive process.
- Function is to pick up oxygen and expel
CO2.

Skeletal system
Major functions:
I – Support, body form.
II – Protection of vital organs.
III – Movement (muscles, bones, joints).
IV – Blood cell production in bone marrow.
V – Storage of essential minerals.
Major divisions
I – Axial skeleton:
Skull, vertebral column, rib cage, sternum.
II – Appendicular skeleton:
Upper extremities,
lower extremities,
 the shoulder girdle,
pelvic girdle.
Classification of bones
I – Long bones:
Arm: humerus, ulna, radius.
Lower limb: femur, tibia, fibula.
II – Short bones:
Bones in the hands and feet.
III – Flat bones:
Sternum, shoulder blades, and ribs.
IV – Irregular bones:
Vertebrae of spinal column
The nervous system
Anatomical division:
I – Central nervous system:
Includes brain and spinal cord.
II – Peripheral nervous system:
Includes peripheral sensory
nerves, peripheral motor
nerves, combination of sensory motor
nerves.
Brain
Spinal
 Cord




             Nerves
Brain        1 – Cerebral cortex
Consists of grey and white matter.
Controls higher functions: sensory reception, voluntary
motor activity, reasoning, emotions, memory.
2 – Cerebellum:
Concerned with maintenance of posture and
equilibrium as well as coordination of skilled
movements.




Cerebellum
3 – Brain stem:
Subdivided to midbrain, pons, medulla oblongata.
Contains important centers maintaining vital functions.
Functional divisions of nervous system
I – Autonomic nervous system (involuntary):
A – Parasympathetic:
Causes dilatation of blood vessels, increases tone and
contractility of smooth muscles, and induces secretions.

B – Sympathetic:
Controls many automatic functions: constriction of blood
vessels, and increases heart rate.

II – Voluntary:
Under direct control of the brain.
