    Study Notes

    Cardiac Cycle

    • Aortic and pulmonary valves open during the systole phase of the cardiac cycle.

    ECG Waves

    • The T wave corresponds to ventricular repolarization.

    Ventricular Filling

    • Ventricular filling is completed by the combination of atrial contraction and venous return.

    Pressure and Volume Changes

    • Isometric contraction causes an increase in pressure but no change in volume during the cardiac cycle.
