16
Q

vol of blood in the ventricle before it relaxes/after it contracts (after ventricular systole)

A

ESV (65)

17
Q

volume of blood ejected per beat

A

SV- stroke volume
EDV-ESV=~70

18
Q

ejection fraction=
fraction of EDV ejected/beat

A

SV/EDV

19
Q

heart sounds (lub dub) due to

A

valve closure

20
Q

-abnormal heart sounds
-failure of valves to open completely=
-failure of valves to close properly=

A

heart murmurs
-failure of valves to open completely=stenosis
-failure of valves to close properly=insufficiency or prolapse

21
Q

what causes 1st heart sound?

A

closure of AV valve

22
Q

what causes 2nd heart sound?

A

closure of semilunar valves

23
Q

amount of blood pumped out of each ventricle in 1 minute

A

cardiac output
CO=HR x SV (heart rate x stroke volume)

24
Q

CO regulated to match demands of tissues.
increased by:
decreased by:

A

increased: physical activity, metabolic status, drugs
decreased: blood loss, heart disease

25
Q

factors that increase HR are called
factors that decrease HR are called

A

increase= + chronotropic
decrease= - chronotropic

26
Q

SNS increases HR (___ and ___ cells)

A

AR and contractile cells

27
Q

PNS decreases heart rate ( ___ cells only)

A

AR cells only

28
Q

which is which:
(SNS and PNS)

    • dromotropic and + chronotropic
    • dromotropic and - chronotropic
A

SNS + dromotropic and + chronotropic
PNS - dromotropic and - chronotropic

29
Q

3 ways SV is altered:
SV=EDV-ESV

A
  1. preload (changing EDV)
  2. afterload (Blood Pressure)
  3. contractility (force of contraction)
30
Q

at rest, cardiac muscle sits at a length that is LESS than optimum.
by increasing EDV:

A

this increases stretch of myocardium
moves resting cardiocytes length towards optimum
increases SV (stroke volume)

31
Q

what is EDV directy related to

A

venous return (VR)

32
Q

rate at which blood is returned to the heart from veins

A

VR (venous rate)

33
Q

veins are what kind of vessels?
they can hold up to 60% of the total blood volume

A

flaccid
Peripheral Venous Pool

34
Q

the pressure to return blood back to the heart from capillaries is very large/small

A

small

35
Q

increase in venous return (VR) by:
(all dependent on one-way valves)

A
  1. increase in skeletal muscle pump
  2. increase in breathing in and out (thoracic pump)
  3. increase venoconstriction via SNS (a1 adrenergic receptor)
36
Q

decrease in venous return (VR) by:

A
  1. tachycardia (extreme high heart rate)= decrease CO by decrease EDV
  2. valsalva maneuver (increasing thoracic pressure against closed epiglottis)
37
Q

what is SV (stroke volume) increase related to?
what is CO (cardiac output) related to?

A

SV/HR

CO=HR (at normal HR)
