Q

Volume increases and all of a sudden, the volume stops changing and the pressure goes up. Why did the pressure go up?

A

It means either pressure in the atrium and ventricle are equal OR the atrium and the ventricle are separated because THE MITRAL VALVE IS CLOSED.

Q

In an isovolemtric contraction, what happens to the ventricles?

A

The ventricle is isolated because the valves on both ends are closed. The pressure is high enough to close the mitral valve but NOT high enough to open the aortic valve yet.

Q

What is the reason the pressure goes first?

A

Ventricular contraction is so powerful and fast, the ventricle is getting smaller faster than the blood is leaving.

18
Q

What occurs in the Isovolumetric Relaxation phase?

A

Both the valves are closed and the volume of blood in the LV isn’t changing because the ventricle is relaxing. The box the blood is in is getting bigger and let’s the pressure drop.

25
Q

The first 2/3 of Ventricular Filling is when what occurs?

A

Rapid Fill

26
Q

What happens during Rapid Fill?

A

The blood goes into the ventricle fast.
There’s not much blood in ventricle at all and the blood come racing through the LA from the Pulmonary Veins.

27
Q

What comes after Rapid Fill?

A

Diastasis

28
Q

What happens during Diastasis?

A

Still filling, but slower

29
Q

What is the last piece that is the end of Diastasis to when mitral valve closes?

A

Atrial Systole

30
Q

What happens during Atrial Systole?

A

The last volume of blood to fill the ventricle

31
Q

In a normal healthy heart, the sounds are made by valves and the valves only make sounds when…

A

they close

32
Q

Where does Heart Sound (S1) occur?

A

When the mitral valve closes

33
Q

Where does Heart Sound (S2) occur?

A

Is caused by the aortic valve closing

34
Q

There’s a period of time in a healthy human, when there is a normal S3. When is this?

A

In early infancy

35
Q

Where does Heart Sound (S3) occur?

A

At the end of rapid fill

36
Q

How will you decide if the pressure is higher in the atrium or the ventricle? (Isovolumetric Contraction)

A

You look at the valve between the LA and the LV. If the valve is closed, the pressure is higher in the chamber after the valve than in the chamber before the valve.

37
Q

If the valves closed, what happens to the pressure in the LV?

A

P LV > P LA

38
Q

During ejection, is the mitral valve open or closed?

A

Closed

39
Q

What proves that the valve is closed?

A

The pressure increases and blood is not coming into the ventricle from the atrium. Blood IS NOT moving from the atria to the ventricle.

40
Q

In ejection, what happens to the pressure in valves?

A

P LV > P LA

41
Q

What happens if blood isn’t coming into the ventricle from the LA, what do you know?

A

During isovolumetric relaxation, the volume of blood in a ventricle isn’t changing. It tells you blood isn’t coming from the atrium to the ventricle.

42
Q

When does blood NOT go from the atrium to the ventricle?

A

When the valve is closed

43
Q

Why would the mitral valve be closed?

A

The pressure after the valve is greater than the pressure in the atrium.

44
Q

In Isovolumetric Relaxation, what happens to the pressure?

A

P LV is STILL > PLA

45
Q

In Ventricular Filling, the volume of blood in the ventricle is UP. Where’s the blood coming from?

A

The LA

46
Q

So if blood is coming from the LA into the LV. What do you know about the pressure in the LA compared to the LV?

A

The pressure has to be higher in the atrium because blood goes from the place where the pressure is higher to the place where the pressure is lower.

47
Q

Ventricular Filling is the only phase where LA > LV pressure. Why is that?

A

Because it is the only phase where blood is moving from the atrium into the ventricle.

48
Q

During Isovolumetric Contraction, is the blood moving out of the ventricles in the Aorta?

A

No, if blood is moving, the chamber that the blood is moving from has higher pressure than the chamber it’s going into.

49
Q

In Isovolumetric Contraction, what happens to the pressure of the Aorta and LV?

A

P Aorta > P LV
Because the blood isn’t going from the LV into the Aorta

50
Q

In Ejection, is blood going from the ventricle into the Aorta? If so, which pressure is higher, LV or the Aorta?

A

Yes, the P LV > P Aorta

51
Q

During Isovolumetric relaxation, is blood moving from the ventricle to the aorta?

A

No, the volume isn’t changing. P Aorta > P LV

52
Q

You need to have 100 mm of pressure to open the aortic valve, that’s the minimum pressure that will open it. Any pressure below that means…

A

it’s not open

53
Q

In Ventricular Filling, is blood moving from the ventricle to the aorta?

A

No. The P Aorta > P LV

54
Q

The only cardiac cycle where the P LV > P Aorta and the only phase where the blood goes from the LV into the Aorta.

A

Ejection Phase

55
Q

There is only one phase in the cardiac cycle where the pressure in the LA is higher than the pressure in the LV where blood goes from the atrium into the ventricle.

A

Ventricular Filliing

56
Q

Ventricular Systole takes up ________ of the cardiac cycle.

A

1/3

57
Q

Diastole takes up the other ________ of the cardiac cycle.

A

2/3

58
Q

How does the pressure in the left ventricle get to be higher than the pressure in the left atrium?

A

The ventricles start to contract

59
Q

Where does Ventricular Systole start?

A

starts a little before the mitral valve closes

60
Q

______ raises pressure enough to close the valve.

A

Systole

61
Q

What is the start and end of Ventriular Systole?

A

Starts BEFORE mitral valve closes and end BEFORE aortic valve closes. Because in order for pressure to drop below aortic pressure, the ventricles have to start relaxing.

62
Q

Where does Diastole start and end?

A

Starts AFTER aortic valve closes, and ends BEFORE mitral valve closes.
