Cardio Dynamics Flashcards
1
Q
Normal Cardiac Output
A
5 - 5.5L
2
Q
Describe a rational for a lower heart rate in athletes/fit people
A
Grater SV and larger hearts (myocardium)
maintain. ower heart rate
50BPM
3
Q
Stroke Volume
A
ensures right and left ventricles pump equal volumes of blood
- Preload
-Contractibility (ANS)
- after load
4
Q
Cardiac output
A
the amount of blood pumped out of each ventricle in 1 min (UNIT ml/min)
stroke volume (SV) X Heart rate (HR)
5
Q
CO childbirth
A
increases- 40% (Aprox)
meet demand of placenta and fetus
max 20-24 weeks
6
Q
CO babies and children
A
Higher output and O2 Consumption Per KG
heartrate = depentdant on CO
7
Q
CO aging pop
A
Reduction in muscles= reduction in CO
