exercise 15 Flashcards
cardiac cycle
the sequence of all the electrical and mechanical events associated with a heartbeat
AV valves will not close until
the pressure in the ventricles increases and becomes greater than the pressure in the atria
SL valves will not open until
the pressure in the ventricles becomes greater than the pressure in the great arteries
SL valves will not close until
the pressure in the ventricles is less than the pressure in the great arteries
AV valves will not open until
pressure in the atria is greater than pressure in the ventricles
closing of AV vales
S1 (lub); heard shortly after the beginning of ventricular systole (systole forces those valves closed); like right at R wave
isovolumetric contraction
occurs during initial portion of ventricular systole; pressure builds up but not enough to eject blood
closing of SL valves
S2 (dub); heard shortly after the beginning of ventricular diastole (after T wave)
passive filling of ventricles
S3; during atrial and ventricular diastole
final (active) filling of ventricles
S4; during atrial depolarization and ventricular diastole
direction of flow
great veins, atria, AV valves, ventricles, SL vales, great arteries
insufficient valve
valve does not close completely
stenotic valve
valve does not open completely
systolic murmur
a valve that should be open or closed during systole
diastolic murmur
a valve that should be open or closed during diastole
