Q

When the ventricle relaxes, what is happening?

A

The Ventricular pressure decreases to less than aortic pressure.

-Aortic valve closes.

34
Q

Why is cycle 3 Isovolumetric? What’s happening?

A

The aortic valve closes.

B/c all the valves close again, ventricular vol. is constant (isovolumetric)

A

cycle 4. (A to B)

36
Q

Cycle 4 is called what?

A

A

mitral valve opening (point A)

38
Q

What point does the Mitral valve open?

A

Point A

39
Q

At point D the ventricle

A

relaxes

40
Q

Once left ventricular pressure decreases to less than the left atrial pressure, what happens?

A

the Mitral (AV) valve opens and filling of the ventricle begins.

41
Q

During Ventricular Filling (cycle 4), ventricular volume increases to about:

A

140 ml (end-diastolic vol)

42
Q

What is occurring at Point B ?

A

end diastolic volume

ventricular volume increasing

43
Q

20% of ventricular filling is a result of the

A

atrial kick

44
Q

Atrial Kick occurs when?

A

45
Q

Increased Preload refers to an

A

increase in ventricular End diastolic VOLUME (filling)

-result of increased venous return

46
Q

Frank-Startling relationship:

Increased preload =

A

drops rapidly

79
Q

Nerves that stimulate Heart

A

Vagus

Sympathetic nerves

80
