Identify the four components of the conduction system of the heart
Sinoatrial Node. Atrioventricular node. Bundle of His , Purkinje Fibres
1 of 18
What is the cardiac cycle
Mechanical Events of one whole heart beat
2 of 18
What are the four phases of the Cardiac Cycle
Atrial & Ventricular Diastole. Atrial & Ventricular Systole
3 of 18
What happens in the Diastolic Phase
Diastole is the relaxation phase where the heart fills with blood.The Atrial Diastoles the tricuspid& bicuspid stays closed to increase pressure in atria.This forces them open and blood goes into ventricles.While ventricles fill, semilunar stay close
4 of 18
Name two venous return mechanisms
Suction Pump.Respiratory Pump.Muscle Pump.One WAY pocket valves IN VEINS. Gravity
5 of 18
Describe the Respiratory pump
Changes in pressure in thorax as you breathe in and out help draw blood back up to the heart
6 of 18
What is cardiac output and what is the relationship with stroke volume
Amount of blood pumped out of the heart per minute. Q= Heart Rate X Strokevolume.
7 of 18
What is the average heart rate
72 bpm
8 of 18
Average stroke volume
70 litres
9 of 18
What is end diastolic volume
Amount of blood left in the ventricles at the end of diastole (relaxation) phase
10 of 18
Explain Starlings Law
Increased venous Return.More blood in the left ventricle.Left ventricle stretch more .This then allows a greater force of contraction. This causes increase Stroke volume and Ejection Fraction
11 of 18
Define Ejection Fraction
Percentage of blood pumped out of the heart
12 of 18
What is the effect of training on resting cardiac output and stroke volume
Cardiac output stays the same and Stroke Volume INCREASES
13 of 18
Name some cardiovascular adaptations to training
Cardiac Hypertrophy.Increase in stroke volume.Reduction in resting heart rate.Inclease in End diastolic volume. Increased Venous Return.Increase in Red blood cells
14 of 18
What does Anticipatory Rise Mean
A slight increase in heart rate PRIOR to exercise caused be release of ADRENALINE
15 of 18
Name the 4 main receptors
Baro, Chemo,Proprio & Thermoreceptors
16 of 18
What do chemoreceptors detect
Changes in blood PH caused by increase in C02
17 of 18
Explain how rising levels of C02 cause an increase in CARDIAC OUPUT
Increase in acidity detected by chemoreceptors.IMPULSES sent to Medulla. Increased Stimulation of Sympathetic nerve.Increase in Heart rate &venous return.Increase in Stroke Volume/E fraction.Starlings Law
