Study Notes

Blood Pressure and Vital Signs

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries.
Vital signs are essential indicators of a person's health, and they include: blood pressure, body temperature, pulse rate, and respiratory rate.

Cardiac Cycle

The cardiac cycle refers to the sequence of events that occur in the heart from the beginning of one heartbeat to the beginning of the next.
It consists of two phases: diastole and systole.

Heart Rate

Heart rate is the number of times the heart beats per minute.
It is also known as pulse rate.

Phases of the Cardiac Cycle

Diastole is the phase of the cardiac cycle when the heart muscles are relaxed and fill with blood.
During diastole, the heart fills with blood and prepares for the next heartbeat.
