Heart rate - Anatomy and Physiology Flashcards
What is the relationship between heart rate, stroke volume and cardiac output?
Heart rate x stroke volume
What is heart rate?
Number of times the heart (Or ventricles) beats in a minute.
What is Stroke volume?
The amount of blood ejected from the heart (or ventricles) per beat.
What is Cardiac output?
The amount of blood ejected from the heart (or ventricles ) per minute.
What is the first step?
60-80 BPM
What is the second step?
Anticipation rise - Sa mode is triggered because of adrenaline and H.R starts to rise.
What is the third step?
Steep rise (Explained in other deck)
What is the forth step?
Platoe - Heart rate flattens 02 demand is met 120 - 150
What is the 5th step (Maximal) ?
Continued rise - Oxygen demand is not met.
What is the 6th step?
Steep fall - Return to rest, 02 debt is repayed.
