CARDIAC CYCLE OF THE HEART

57
Q

o Amount of blood pumped by each side
of the heart in one minute
o CO = (heart rate [HR]) x (stroke volume
[SV])
▪ 5250 ml/min = 75 beats/min x
70 mls/beat
▪ Norm = 5000 ml/min
▪ Entire blood supply passes
through body once per minute.
▪ CO varies with demands of the
body.

58
Q

Volume of blood pumped by each
ventricle in one contraction

A

Stroke volume

59
Q
  • Stroke volume usually remains relatively constant
  • Starling’s law of the heart – the more that the cardiac muscle is stretched, the stronger the contraction
  • Changing heart rate is the most common way to change cardiac output
  • To regulate heart rate is to regulate cardiac output.

92
Q

two basic postnatal (after birth) routes for blood flow;

A

Pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation

93
Q

▪ when blood returns to the heart
from the systemic route, it is pumped out of the right ventricle through the pulmonary circulation to the lungs.
▪ The pulmonary circulation carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the air sacs (alveoli) within the lungs and returns oxygenated blood from the air sacs to the left atrium
▪ From superior and inferior vena cava

A

pulmonary circulation

94
Q

▪ carries oxygen and nutrients to
body tissues and removes carbon dioxide and other wastes and heat from the tissues.
▪ All systemic arteries come from aorta

A

systemic circulation
