Cardiac Lecture 2 Flashcards
What is Reynold’s number?
Theoretical number to calculate likelihood of turbulent flow
What Reynold’s number is turbulent flow likely?
> 2000
If blood vessel diameter increases, will turbulence increase or decrease?
Increase turbulence
If blood velocity increases, will turbulence increase or decrease?
increase turbulence
If blood density increases, will turbulence increase or decrease?
increase turbulence
If blood viscosity increases, will turbulence increase or decrease?
decrease turbulence
Which blood vessels are most prone to turbulent flow?
Aorta and large arteries
Flow meter assesses blood flow by using an electromagnetic probe to measure the magnetic field produced by ______
iron in heme
Phase 1 of the cardiac cycle occurs during
ventricular filling/diastole
During phase 1, the mitral valve is ______ and the aortic valve is _______
mitral open, aortic closed
During phase 2, the mitral valve is ______ and the aortic valve is _______
mitral closed, aortic closed
During phase 3, the mitral valve is ______ and the aortic valve is _______
mitral closed, aortic open
During phase 4, the mitral valve is ______ and the aortic valve is _______
mitral closed, aortic closed
What do we call the amount of blood remaining at the end of systole, and how much is it?
End-systolic volume, 50mL
What do we call the amount of blood in the ventricle at the end of filling, and how much is it?
End-diastolic volume, 120mL
Normal stroke volume is ____ mL
70mL
Atrial contraction provides what amount of end-diastolic volume, ____mL? (in healthy person)
10mL
In heart failure, atrial kick provides ______ % of end-diastolic volume
> 25%
Stroke volume = ______ - _________
stroke volume = end diastolic volume - end systolic volume
At the beginning of phase 1, pressure in the left atria is greater or less than left ventricle?
LAP > LVP; that’s why the mitral valve opens
Diastole is phase _____ of the cardiac cycle
