Phases Of Cardiac Cycle

Question 1

Increase in ateial pressure caused by atrial systole

Answer 1

A wave

Question 2

2 causes of 4th heart sound

Answer 2

Ventricular hypertropy

Filling of ventricle by atrial systole

Question 3

A wave

4th heart sound

Answer 3

Atrial systole

Question 4

S1 aka AV valve closure

Answer 4

Isovolumetric ventricular contraction

Question 5

Wave caused by bulging of tricuspid valve into right atrium

Answer 5

C wave

Question 6

C wave

Answer 6

Rapid ventricular ejection

Question 7

Most of the stroke volume is ejected in this phase

Answer 7

Rapid ventricular ejection

Question 8

Represents repolarization of ventricles

Marks end of ventricular contraction and rapid ventricular ejection

Answer 8

T wave

Question 9

Represents blood flow into right atrium in its rising phase then to right ventricle in its falling phase

Answer 9

V wave

Question 10

V wave

Answer 10

Reduced ventricular ejection

Question 11

Second heart sound what phase

Answer 11

Iso relaxation

Question 12

“Blip” in aortic pressure that occurs after closure of aortic valve

Answer 12

Dicrotic notch/incisura

Question 13

Dicrotic notch/incisura what phase

Answer 13

Iso relaxation

Question 14

Mitral valve opens on what phase

Answer 14

Rapid ventricular filling

Question 15

S3 what phase

Answer 15

Rapid ventricular filling

Question 16

Caused by rapid flow of blood from atria to ventricles

Normal in kids

Answer 16

S3

Question 17

Longest phase of cardiac cycle

Answer 17

Rapid ventricular filling/diastasis
