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.
