Cardiovascular II Flashcards
______= the volume of blood ejected from the heart per unit of time
- CO
the calcuation of Cardiac Output (CO) =
Heart Rate (HR) x Stroke Volume (SV)
_____ = volume of blood ejected with each beat
•SV = Stroke Volume
• Stroke Volume is affected by:
- Heart size
- Duration of contraction
- Contractility
_____= Amount of blood going to the heart
• Preload
_____ = Force against which the ventricle
must contract
• Afterload
contractility consist of _____ and ____
o Consist of preload & afterload
Affects end diastolic volume (Ventricle is
stretched due to increase volume)
- Preload
affects left ventricle ejection into aorta
- afterload
Point at which - ventricle relaxed (AV valve closed, mitral valve about to open)
- Preload
• Point at which – ventricle contracts (MV closed, AV opening)
• Afterload
• A representation of the performance of the heart at a given preload and afterload
• Contractility
- preload & afterload effect _____
contractility
contractility can be additionally affected by changing the ______ and ______
- Changing the heart rate (chronotropic effect)
* Force of contraction (inotopic effect)
• Changing the heart rate is a ____ effect
chronotropic effect
the force of contraction is a _____ effect
inotopic effect
• _____ = ratio of volume of blood ejected from the left ventricle per beat : volume of blood in the left ventricle at the end of diastole
Ejection Fraction
contractility is measured through the ______
Ejection Fraction
____ is AKA the amount of blood that does get out vs the amount of blood that stays behind
Ejection Fraction
_____ heart failure is the inability of the heart to pump out blood
Systolic Heart Failure
in Systolic Heart Failure the strength of ventricle contraction is inadequate to create an _____- => low CO
adequate stroke volume
Failure of the pump function of heart is known as
Systolic Heart Failure
____ heart failure is when the heart is not able to pump blood from LEFT ventricle
Systolic Heart Failure
the hallmark sign of Systolic Heart Failure is _____
a decreased ejection fraction (less than 45%
in Systolic Heart Failure the o ventricle inadequately emptied => increase_____ and _____
ventricular end diastolic pressure and volume
in _____ heart failure you have a decreased ____
CO
