Study Notes

Cardiovascular Changes during Exercise

  • The Fick equation for cardiac output is: CO = VO2 / (a-vO2)
  • The activity that reviews cardiovascular changes during exercise is called exercise physiology
  • The variable measured during recovery after exercise is called excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC)

Maximal Cardiac Output

  • Maximal cardiac output is the highest rate at which the heart can pump blood to meet the oxygen demands of the body during exercise
  • Maximal cardiac output is limited by the ability of the heart to pump blood, not by the ability of the lungs to take in oxygen
  • The major purpose of the increase in cardiac output during exercise is to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the muscles

Cardiovascular Responses to Exercise

  • The likely limitation of O2max is the ability of the cardiovascular system to deliver oxygen to the muscles
  • A decrease in peripheral resistance is NOT a cardiovascular response to acute exercise
  • The resting heart rate (RHR) for most individuals is between 60-100 beats per minute

Cardiovascular Adjustments during Exercise

  • The primary goal of cardiovascular adjustments during dynamic exercise is to maintain adequate blood flow and oxygen delivery to the muscles
  • Maximal heart rate (HRmax) is the highest heart rate achievable during exercise, and it decreases with age
  • HRmax can be estimated using the equation: 220 - age

Stroke Volume and Exercise

  • Stroke volume (SV) is primarily determined by preload, afterload, and contractility
  • SV increases during exercise due to an increase in preload and contractility, and a decrease in afterload
  • The upright position results in lower resting SV values compared to the supine position
  • SV increases with exercise intensity up to approximately 40% to 60% of O2max, and then plateaus

Heart Rate and Exercise

  • The steady-state heart rate is the heart rate achieved during prolonged exercise at a moderate intensity
  • A lower steady-state heart rate at a fixed exercise intensity indicates a higher level of cardiovascular fitness
  • Heart rate variability (HRV) is the variation in time between heartbeats

Factors Affecting Stroke Volume

  • Factors that can contribute to an increase in SV during exercise include an increase in preload, contractility, and sympathetic nerve activity
  • Factors that do not influence SV during acute exercise include changes in afterload
  • The typical pattern of SV during exercise is an increase with exercise intensity up to approximately 40% to 60% of O2max, and then a plateau

Cardiac Output and Exercise

  • The formula for calculating cardiac output (CO) is: CO = HR x SV
  • Diagnostic techniques such as echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been used to determine how the heart chambers respond to increasing oxygen demands during exercise
  • The Frank-Starling mechanism is a mechanism that increases stroke volume in response to an increase in preload
  • The approximate increase in SV from rest to maximal exercise in active but untrained individuals is 20-40%
