Q

the working phase of the cardiac cycle is ___. it involves ____ that generates an impulse that results in muscle contraction

A

systole; depolarization

23
Q

the resting phase of the cardiac cycle is ___. it involves ____ which allows the chambers to fill with blood again

A

diastole ; repolarization

24
Q

what 2 factors affect cardiac output

A

stroke volume and heart rate

25
Q

describe the relationship between cardiac output, heart rate, and stroke volume

A

CO=HR x SV / HR and SV are inversely related

26
Q

what 3 things determine stroke volume

A

preload, afterload, and contractility

27
Q

how cold a pt experiencing blood loss compensate to maintain a normal cardiac output

A

increase heart rate

28
Q

what is the equation for blood pressure and how does each component contribute to bp

A

BP = CO x SVR / CO = amount of blood leaving the heart with each cycle, SVR = elasticity of the vessels

29
Q

what are 3 ways you can obtain a BP

A

oscillometric, doppler, arterial cath

30
Q

what are 3 locations you could obtain a bp on a cat

tail, hindlimb, forelimb

31
Q

3 locations to draw blood on a cat

A

jugular, cephalic, medial saphenous, medial femoral vein

32
Q

what are 3 examples of diagnostics that can be performed to evaluate CV function

A

ECG, ECHO, radiographs, BP, auscultation

33
Q

where do veins and arteries join together

A

capillaries

34
Q

systole is

A

contraction of the atria and ventricles

35
Q

what conducts electoral stimuli through the R and L ventricular myocardium

A

purkinje fibers

36
Q

chordae tendonae are the attachments that make the valves of the heart unidirectional

A

true

37
Q

blood enters the heart from the pulmonary veins into the

A

left atrium

38
Q

in the healthy heart, the ____ has slight delay to allow atria to finish their contraction

A

AV node

39
Q

blood that has just been oxygenated in the lungs flows where next

A

left atrium

40
Q

these blood vessels do not have muscle tissue in their walls

A

capillaries

41
Q

in the healthy heart the heartbeat is initiated by the

A

SA node

42

purpose of pericardial fluid

A

helps decrease friction
