Flashcards

Heart Murmur

An unusual "whoosh" sound during a heartbeat, caused by turbulent blood flow in the heart.

1st Heart Sound (S1)

The "lubb" sound, created by the closing of AV valves at the start of ventricular contraction.

2nd Heart Sound (S2)

The "dupp" sound, created by the closing of semilunar valves at the beginning of ventricular relaxation.

Cardiac Output (CO)

Amount of blood pumped by the left ventricle in one minute.

Sympathetic Stimulation Effect on CO

Increases heart rate and contractility, leading to a higher cardiac output.

Parasympathetic Stimulation Effect on CO

Decreases heart rate and contractility, resulting in a lower cardiac output.

Passive Filling

The process where the majority of blood (about 70%) enters the ventricles during diastole, when both atria and ventricles are relaxed. This is caused by blood flowing passively from the atria through open AV valves.

Atrial Systole

The contraction phase of the atria, pushing the remaining 30% of blood into the ventricles, which are already partially filled from passive filling.

Ventricular Systole

The contraction phase of the ventricles. It starts with the closing of the AV valves and ends with the ejection of blood into the pulmonary and aortic trunks.

AV Valve Closure

The closing of the atrioventricular valves (AV valves) occurs at the end of atrial systole, when ventricular pressure exceeds atrial pressure during the beginning of ventricular systole.

Signup and view all the flashcards

Semilunar Valve Opening

The opening of the semilunar valves occurs when ventricular pressure exceeds arterial pressure during ventricular systole, allowing blood to be ejected into the pulmonary and aortic trunks.
