Q

All 4 chambers of the heart are relaxed and all valves are closed

A

Isovolumetric ventricular relaxation

16
Q

What 3 events are occurring during Isovolumetric Ventricular relaxation

A
  1. All chambers of heart are relaxed and valves are closed
  2. Ventricular volume is constant and pressure is decreasing
  3. Left atrium is filling with blood that has returned from the pulmonary veins; left atrial pressure is rising
17
Q

2 events of End of Isovolumetric ventricular relaxation

A
  1. Left atrial pressure (LAP) exceeds Left ventricular pressure (LVP), resulting in opening of the Mitral valve
  2. Ventricular filling ensues
18
Q

Ventricular filling has what three phases?

A
  1. Rapid Passive Filling
  2. Slow Passive Filling
  3. Atrial Systole
19
Q

Rapid Passive Filling

A
  1. Blood flows quickly through the mitral valve and into the relaxed ventricle
  2. Ventricle volume increasing
  3. Third heart sound produced
  4. No muscle contraction
20
Q

What occurs during Slow Passive Filling (Diastasis)

A
  1. Blood flows slowly through mitral valve and into the relaxed ventricle
  2. Ventricle volume increases
  3. No muscle contractions
21
Q

What occurs during the 3rd phase of filling called the Atrial Systole

A
  1. Atrium are depolarized and contract producing a small contribution to ventricular volume
22
Q

What occurs immediately after Atrial Systole

A
  1. LVP>LAP which causes mitral valve to shut
  2. First heart sound produced
  3. Volume in the left ventricle is the End Diastolic Volume
23
Q

What occurs during Isovolumetric Ventricular Contraction phase

A
  1. Left ventricle is depolarized and contracts
  2. LVP rises steadily
  3. No Ejection of blood because ventricular volume stays constant
24
Q

What occurs during Rapid Ventricular Ejection (4)

A
  1. Left ventricle develops enough pressure so that LVP>LAP
  2. Aortic semilunar valve opens and blood is ejected
  3. Aortic pressure rises
  4. Left Ventricular pressure continues to rise as well
25
Q

What occurs when entering back into Isovolumetric Relaxation

A
  1. LVP falls below aortic pressure and the aortic semilunar valve closes
  2. Second heart sound produced
  3. Aortic pressure falls because blood runs to arteries
  4. T wave produced
  5. Volume of blood left in ventricle is ESV
26
Q

What is the Dichrotic notch?

A
  1. Closure of the aortic valve causes a brief rise in aortic pressure as backflowing of blood rebounds off the closed valve cusps
