A

all the events associated with one heartbeat

34
Q

what is systole

A

contraction of atria and ventricles

35

what is diastole

A

relaxation of atria and ventricles

36
Q

what pressure gradient does blood flow by

A

high to low

37
Q

what is EDV end diastolic volume

A

how much blood left in ventricle after rest

38
Q

what is iso-volumetric contraction

A

contraction of ventricle with valves closed and no volume change

39
Q

what is ESV end systolic volume

A

how much blood left in ventricle after systole

40
Q

what is iso-volumetric relaxation

A

ventricles relax, valves close, no volume change

41
Q

A

EDV = ~ 130 ml

42
Q

A

ESV = ~ 50 ml

43
Q

what is dicrotic notch

A

breif drop in aortic pressure with backflow and semilunar valve closes

44
Q

what is the formula for stroke volume

A

EDV - ESV = stroke volume

[130] - [50] = [80ml]

45
Q

what is stroke volume

A

EDV - ESV = SV

L vent ejects ~ 80 ml blood into aorta

R vent into pulmonary trunk

during one heartbeat/cardiac cycle

46
Q

what is iso-volumetric relaxation

A

all valves closed

ventricular myocardium relaxed

ventricular pressure > atrial pressure

47
Q

when does ventricular filling occur

A

when atrial pressure > ventricular pressure

A

listening to heart with stethoscope

49

what is heart murmur

A

valve problems, regurgitation of blood

50
Q

what is the formula for cardiac output

A

HR * SV = CO

51
Q

what is the average cardiac output and the formula

A

HR * SV = CO

75 * 80 = 6L/min

52
Q

what is cardiac reserve

A

[exercise CO] - [resting CO] = cardiac reserve

athletes have higher cardiac reserves

53
Q

function of autonomic NS

A

regulates heart rate and strength of contraction

54
Q

input and output of cardiovascular center in medulla oblongata

A

input: higher brain centers and sensory receptors
output: cardioacceleratory center (sympathetic) and cardioinhibitory (parasympathetic via vagus)

55
Q

↑ sympathetic activation results in…

A

↑ HR and contraction force

faster relaxation

release NE and ↑ Na+ entry → faster depol

56
Q

what is atrial reflex

A

if ↑ in venous return, right atrium stretched and cardioaccelatory center stimulated

57
Q

result of NE, Epi, and thyroid hormone

A

↑ HR and contractility

58
Q

what is preload

A

how much stretch of cardiac muscles before contraction

59
Q

what is contractility

A

force of contraction heart muscle fibers

60
Q

what is afterload

A

pressure that must be overcome for the ventricles to eject blood

61
Q

result of ↑ preload and contractility

A

↑ SV

62
Q

result of ↑ afterload

A

↓ SV

63
Q

what is the Frank-Starling principle

A

“more in - more out”

↑ EDV = ↑ SV

64
Q

what are positive inotropic agents

A

factors that ↑ contractility

65
Q

what are negative inotropic agents

A

factors that ↓ contractility

66
Q

left-side heart failure result…

A

67
Q

right-side heart failure result…

A

peripheral congestion (edema)
