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 |
|
