Cardiac Cycle

Rapid passive filling fills what percentage of the ventricles?
75-80%
Cardiac Cycle

Active filling (atrial contraction) fills what percentage of the ventricles?
20-25%
Cardiac Cycle

Rapid ejection empties __% of the ventricles within what time frame?
70% within the first third of the ejection phase
Cardiac Cycle

Slow ejection empties __% of the ventricles within what time frame?
30% within the last 2/3 of the ejection phase
What is stroke volume and what is the normal value?
amount of blood ejected during each heart beat

NL: 70-100 ml/beat
What is end diastolic volume?
What is the normal value?
volume of blood in ventricles at end of diastole (filling)

NL: 145 ml
What is end systolic volume?
What is the normal value?
volume of blood in ventricles at end of systole (ejection)

NL: 65 ml
What is the formula for stroke volume?
SV = EDV - ESV

stroke volume = end diastolic volume - end systolic volume

(amount pumped = original amount - amount left after pumping)
What is ejection fraction?
What is the normal value?
percent of blood ejected per heart beat

NL: 50-75%
What is the formula for ejection fraction?
EF = [ (EDV - ESV) / EDV ] x 100

EF - ejection fraction
EDV - end diastolic volume
ESV - end systolic volume

(%ejected = original amount minus the amount after pumping divided by original amount all multiplied by 100 for a percent)
What is cardiac output?
What is the normal value?
amount of blood circulating in the body per minute

NL: 4 to 8 liters/min
What is the formula for cardiac output?
CO = SV x HR

cardiac output = stroke volume multiplied by heart rate
Pressure is typically higher in ____ circulation.

systemic vs. pulmonary
systemic

*pulmonary circulation pressure is about 20% of that of the systemic circulation pressure
What is the normal oxygen content for the systemic circulation?
98%
What is the normal oxygen content for the pulmonary circulation?
75%
What is the normal cardiac pressure of the RA?
5 mm Hg
What is the normal cardiac pressure of the LA?
10 mm Hg
What is the normal cardiac pressure of the RV?
5 to 25 mm Hg
What is the normal cardiac pressure of the LV?
10-120 mm Hg
What is the normal pressure of the pulmonary artery?
25 mm Hg
What is the normal pressure of the aortic root?
80-120 mm Hg
What is cardiac index?
What is the normal value?
cardiac output adjusted for body surface area

NL: 2.8 to 4.2 L/min/meter squared
A cardiac index of less than 2.0 liters/min/m2 is considered...
shock
Cellular elements (erythrocytes, platelets, and leukocytes) make up what percentage of blood?
45%
Plasma makes up what percentage of blood?
55%
The left anterior descending coronary artery supplies which heart segments?
LV anterior wall
RV anterior wall
Apex
2/3 of the septum
The left circumflex coronary artery supplies which heart segments?
LV lateral
LV posterior
LA
The right coronary artery supplies which heart segments?
RV
RA
LV inferior wall
Posteroinferior 1/3 of septum
LAX planes may be viewed from which windows?
parasternal
apical
*suprasternal but is limited
SAX planes may be viewed from which windows?
parasternal
subcostal
*suprasternal but is limited
4 chamber planes may be viewed from which windows?
apical
subcostal
