21
Q

3 major components of a healthy ECG

A

P wave
QRS complex
T wave

22
Q

Atrial depolarization

23
Q

Ventricular depolarization

24
Q

What occurs at the same time

A

Atrial repolarization

25
Ventricular repolarization
T wave
26
ECG ________ and _______ are regions between waves
Segments and intervals
27
From beginning of P wave to begining of QRS complex
PR interval
28
What does a delay in the PR interval indicate
Heart block
29
Elevation of __________ Indicates a heart attack
ST segment
30
Period of time and set events that occur during one complete beat of the heart
Cardiac cycle
31
Contraction
Systole
32
Relaxation
Diastole
33
What is the 5 stages of the cardiac cycle
Total diastole Atrial systole Early ventricular systole Late ventricular systole Early ventricular diastole
34
-Myocardium is completely relaxed -blood passively fills chambers of the heart -AV valves open and SL valves are closed
Total diastole
35
-Contraction of atrial adds blood to ventricular volume -130ml -AV valves are open and SL valves are closed -aortic pressure decreases as blood flows into systemic circuit
Atrial systole
36
-Refered to as isovolumetric contraction phase -ventricles contract and ventricular pressure increases -AV valves close and produce S1 heart sound -since all 4 valves are closed there is no change in ventricular volume
Early ventricular systole
37
-Ventricular ejection phase -ventricular pressure increases as SL valves open; AV valves remain closed -blood is ejected into pulmonary trunk and aorta -atria is relaxed
Late ventricular systole
38
-The second phase of ventricular diastole -ventricles continue to relax and pressure decreases -When ventricular pressure decreases lower than atrial pressure AV valves opeen
Late ventricular diastole
39
Normal heart sounds are produced by the closure of ___________ or __________
atrioventricular valves or semilunar valves
40
First heart sound is produced by
AV valves
41
Second heart sound is produced by
SL valves
42
Illustrates the pressure within the atria, ventricles and aorta during the cardiac cycle
Wiggers diagram
43
The amount of blood ejected by each ventricle per minute
Cardiac output
44
Average Cardiac output of an adult
5L/min
45
Both ______ and _______ can be regulated to control cardiac output
Heart rate and stroke rate
46
Only part of the end of diastolic volume EDV is ejected
Ejection Fraction
