Study Notes

Cardiac Cycle Phases

  • The cardiac cycle consists of atrial systole followed by ventricular systole and then diastole of the whole heart.

Atrial Systole

  • Atrial systole causes 30% filling of the ventricles.
  • Contraction of the atrial muscles prevents the regurgitation of blood into the atria.

Ventricular Systole

  • A slight increase in ventricular volume occurs during early ventricular systole.
  • A slight increase in ventricular pressure occurs during late ventricular systole.

Diastole

  • Aortic pressure decreases gradually due to continuous escape of blood into the aorta.

Phases of Cardiac Cycle

  • Atrial systole is followed by ventricular systole and then diastole of the whole heart.
