Q

What causes the A-V valves to open?

A

After systole the pressure in the ventricles is lower than in the atria causing them to open.

Q

What causes the semilunar valves to close?

A

The buildup of arterial pressure at the end of systole pushes blood back towards the ventricle, forcing the semilunar and pulmonary valves to close.

19
Q

The first heart sound is caused by _____

A

closing of the AV valves

20
Q

What is the characteristic sound of the first heart sound?

A

low pitch and long lasting

21
Q

What is the second heart sound caused by?

A

The closing of the aortic and pulmonary valves

22
Q

What is the characteristic sound of the second heart sound?

A

rapid snap and vibration

23
Q

What is typical resting heart rate?

A

60-100 BPM

24
Q

Equation for Cadiac Output

A

HR x SV = CO

25
Q

Venous return =

A

Cardiac output

26
Q

Stroke volume =

A

SV= CO/HR

27
Q

Stroke Volume also =

A

EDV - ESV= SV

28
Q

A

2-3 mmHg

29
Q

A

3-5 mmHg

30
Q

During Isometric relaxation, what is the blood pressure in the L. ventricle?

A

32
Q

How much atrial blood travels to the ventricles during slow inflow?

A

15% of 70ml

33
Q

How much atrial blood travels to the ventricles during atrial systole?

A

25% of 70ml

34
Q

Pre-load directly depends on….

A

venous return

35
