Quiz 6 Flashcards
what is the first heart sound
closing of the atrial ventricular valve
what is the closing of the atrial ventricular valve
start of ventricular systole
what is the second heart sound
closing of the semi lunar vales
what does the closing of the semi lunar valves signal
end of ventricular systole
what is an EKG (ECG)
electrocardiogram
when are the semilunar valves open
only open when pressure in ventricles is higher than pressure in atria
what is the ejection phase
when pressure is enough to push blood through valves
what is the formula for how much blood is ejected in a heart cycle
EDV-ESV=Stroke volume
what is EDV
end diastolic volume
what is ESV
end systolic volume
what is diastasis
a brief situation where blood leaves ventricles even though atrial pressure is slightly higher
what is isovolumetric relaxation
semilunar valves close as vestricles relax
what is ventricular filling due to
due to inertia
when is passive return used
as long as atrial pressure is higher than ventricular pressure the atriaventricular valve will be open
which circuit is high pressure and which is low pressure
systemic is high, pulmonary is low
how much blood remains in atria at all times
around 40-50ml
what is the blood remaining in the atria
end systolic volume
what is the p wave
synchronous contraction of the left and right atria
what are the three steps to ventricular systole
isovolumetric contraction, ejection phase, diastasis (inertia)
what is ventricular diastole
isovolumetric relaxation
when is the atrioventricular valve open
during atrial systole, during ventricular filling
when is the atrioventricular valve closed
isoventricular contraction, ventricular ejection, isovolumetric relaxation
when is the aortic valve open
ventricular ejection
during atrial systole the ventricles are already filled, why is blood still put into the ventricles
its a sort of topping off of the tank, its not a meaningful impact of the heart during rest
what is the p wave
atrial systole
what is the qrs wave
isovolumetric contraction
what is the t wave
ventricular ejection
what is end diastolic volume
maximum volume in ventricles when atria in systole
what is the approximate EDV
120ml
what is cardiac output
amount of blood pumped per unit time (L/min)
what is the approximate cardiac output for one circuit
5-6L/circuit of circulation
why does the amount of oxygen in the blood matter for aerobic organisms
to prevent hypoxia
how many liters of blood is pumped per minute for most adult humans
25-27 liters
