Nerve Cardiac Superior

The superior cardiac nerve (lat. nervus cardiacus superior) is a nerve plexus formed from the sympathetic and parasympathetic sections of the celiac plexus (celiac nodes, except the lower and adrenal gland), which supply the heart.

The superior cardiac nerve is a branch of the greater nerve, which is a branch of the celiac artery. It is located on the back surface of the heart and runs at a depth of about 6 mm behind the pericardium, or heart sac (near its left edge).

Emphasizing the importance of the cardiac superior nerve in the functioning of the cardiac system and the ability to regulate it, neuropharmacologists use the terminology of psychopharmacology. When studying the properties of this ganglion, they use it to refer to any part of the brain associated with our emotional state. For example, analysis of some patients in the physics-related study and the results show that their brains showed significant activity in the cardiac superior nerves. This suggests that emotions determine and influence the functioning of the heart, which means that the superior cardiac nerve is an important control element of the functioning of the cardiovascular system.

According to scientists, disruption of nervous regulation can lead to various diseases of the cardiovascular and nervous system, including coronary disease, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, cerebrovascular
