How to calculate end-diastolic volume?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for a method to calculate the end-diastolic volume, which is a concept in cardiology related to the amount of blood in the ventricles at the end of diastole. This can involve specific formulas or measurements.
Answer
Multiply the stroke volume by the heart rate.
The end-diastolic volume (EDV) can be calculated by multiplying the stroke volume (SV) by the heart rate (HR).
Answer for screen readers
The end-diastolic volume (EDV) can be calculated by multiplying the stroke volume (SV) by the heart rate (HR).
More Information
End-diastolic volume (EDV) is the volume of blood in the ventricle at the end of filling (diastole) and is an important measure of heart function.
Tips
Often a common mistake is to confuse EDV with ejection fraction (EF), which is the percentage of EDV ejected from the ventricle during systole.
