Q

Isovolumic contraction

A

Both valves closed - no flow

17
Q

Outflow phase

A

Mitral valve closed
Aortic valve open

18
Q

Isovolumic relaxation

A

Both valves closed no flow

19
Q

Phase 1 - Inflow

A

Diastole (passive and active)
Mitral valve open - Aortic valve closed
Rapid vent filling
Diastasis - decreased vent filling
Atrial cont - vent filling

20
Q

Phase 3 (Outflow)

A

Systole
Mitral valve closed - aortic valve open
Rapid vent ejection
Decreased vent ejection

21
Q

Phase 4

A

Diastole
Both valves closed

22
Q

Cardiac cycle

A

seq of elctrical and mech events

23
Q

Cardiac reserve

A

The difference b/w a person’s max output and output at rest

24
Q

Preload

A

Force that stretches the relaxed muscle fiber (EDV)

25
Q

What determines the preload?

A

Venous return and filling time

26
Q

The load the vent faces before it contracts EDV

A

preload

27
Q

Normal EDV is ____ mL and is optimal because

A

120, optimal overlap of actin and myosin in sarcomere

28
Q

Frank-Starling law of the heart

A

stroke volume increases in response to an increase in the volume of blood filling the heart when all other factors remain constant

29
Q

Contractility

A

Cardiac performance at a given preload and afterload (ejection fraction) Rate of pressure development (P/t)

30
Q

When we exercise we have ___ ___ of contractility

A

increased force

31
Q

Afterload

A

The load the vent faces before it begins to contract (aortic pressure)
