Atrial systole means
atrial contraction begins,
atrial eject blood in ventricles
Give order of steps in cardiac cycle
atrial systole

ventricular systole

ventricular diastole
EDV stands for
end diastolic volume

EDV, S1 are in what step?
atrial systole
SV stand for + means
Stroke volume
volume of blood ejected by ventricle through semilunar valves
formula for SV
=
EDV-ESV
SV,
isovolumetric contractions
semilumar valves close (S2)
ESV
ventricles release blood
are in what step?
ventricular systole
ESV stands for
end systolic volume
the beginning of ventricular diastole what occurs?
high ventricular pressure
low atrial pressure

all valves closed

isovolumetric relaxation
near the end of ventricular diastole what occurs?
high atrial pressure
low ventricular pressure

AV open
passive atrial + ventricular filling begin
define ejection fraction
% of EDV represented by SV
If SV is increased?
ventricles are ejecting more blood through semilunar valves
=
increased cardio output
If ESV is increased?
there is more blood left in ventricles (instead of being released through semilunar valves)
=
decreased cardio output
ESV is usually what % of EDV?
40%



ESV (blood ejected through semilunar valve) is 40% of EDV (blood ventricle recieved from atria)
S1
first sound, lub, loud
AV close
S2
second sound, dub, loud
semilunar valves close
atrial systole
S1
ventricular systole
S2
S3,S4
soft sounds heard during blood flow into ventricles, atrial contraction
sounds heard because of regurguitation of blood is
heart mumur
heart mumurs are caused by
valve prolapse
If you have a heart attack patient with an end-diastolic volume of 125 ml and an end systolic volume of 40 ml.

Calc stroke volume
SV= EDV-ESV
SV=125-40

=85
cardiac output def
vol of blood pumped by left ventricle in 1 min
cardiac output formula
=
HR x SV

heart rate (bpm) x stroke volume (ml/beat)
A patient has a heart rate of 125 beats/min, EDV of 130 mL and ESV of 40mL. What is cardiac output
CO= HR x SV

SV= EDV-EDV

130-40=90

CO=125 x 90=
11250 mL/min
factors affecting heart are
autonomic innervation

hormones
factors affecting stroke volume
EDV & ESV
Give an alternate but equal formula for CO
=
HR x (EDV-ESV)
name the nervous system component in heart
cardiac plexus
which part of the brain also affects heart
medulla oblongata with its
cardio acceleratory
cardio inhibitory centers
resting tone is maintained by
aCH (acetylocholine)
NE (norepiphrine)
tell flow in cardioacceltory center
impulses sent to sympathetic neruons
cardiac plexus
signal goes to AV & SA node
tell flow in cardioinhibitory center
impulses sent to parasympathetic vagus

inhibitory impulses sent to heart.
why do pacemaker cells make the 1st heart beat?
pacemaker cells in SA node have a membrane potential closer to threshold potential

(-60 mV instead of -80 mv)

depolarizes fastest at a rate of 80 beats/min
sympathetic & parasympathetic stimulation is greatest at
the SA node
Ach is what branch of nervous system

has what effect on heart
parasympathetic, slows heart
NE is part of what branch of nervous system

has what effect on heart
sympathetic, speeds up heart
the atrial reflex is also called the
Bainbridge reflex
fcn of atrial reflex
adjusts heart rate in response to increased venous return
When you excercise how does heart increase?
Sympathetic nervous system kicks in
stretchreceptors (mechanoreceptors) in r. atrium
cause increase in HR
these hormones stimualte SA node and increase heart rate
epinephrine

norepinephrine

thyroid hormone
factors that influence Stroke Volume
duration of ventricular diastole
(filling time)

rate of blood flow during ventricular diastole
(venous return)
preload def
how much ventricle stretches during ventricular diastole

(aka how stretched are they before they contract (fill with blood)
if preload increases then, EDV
increases
how does preload affect muscle cells
ability to produce tension
at rest,
EDV is
myocardium stretches
stroke volume
low
less
low
with excercise,
EDV is
myocardium stretches
stroke volume
high
more
high
Frank Starling principle
EDV increases
SV increases
the most important factor for controlling stoke volume is
preload
ventricula expansion is limited by
myocardial connective tissue

cardiac (fibrous) skeleton

pericardial sac
factors that affect ESV
preload: how pre stretched the ventricle during diastole (rest)

contractilcity: force of contraction at a certain preload

afterload: tension ventricle produces to push open semilunar
afterload
tension the ventricle produces to open semilunar valve and eject blood.
contractility def
force produced during contraction
at a given preload
contractility depends on
autonomic activty (symp/parasymp)
hormones
sympathetic stimulation effect on contractility
ventricles contract with more force
increases ejection fraction
decreases ESV (less blood left in ventricles that should have been pumped)
parasympathetic stimulation effect on contractility
ach released by vagus nerves

reduces force of cardiac contractions
if afterload increases then SV
increases
afterload can be increased by
any factor that restricts arterial flow
cardiac reserve
difference btwn resting and maximal cardiac output
drugs that stimulate or block beta adrenergic receptors causes
beta -one recepetors to be activated and heart rate increases
calicum channel blockers
decrease force of cardiac contraction

decrease BP

dilate coronary arteries

weaken contractions
what is negative ionotropic effect?
contractions are weakened

can be due to Ca2+ channel blockers
EDV means
blood recieved by venticles from atria

(aka they have to end their nap(diastole) b/c atria is giving them blood
ESV means
volume of blood remaining after ventricle ejects blood through semilunar valves
isovolumetric contraction def
occurs in ventricles in order to pressurize blood in order to open semilunar valves
isvolumetric contraction happens in what step?
ventricular systole
