Cardiac Function (Integrated) HBFII Lecture 9 Wayne State University - School of Medicine 2024 Charles S Chung PhD Associate Professor Department of Physiology [email protected] Role of the Heart: Cardiac Output A heart must move blood through the body Blood is a fluid We’ve learned about the cell physiology How does this translate to the whole heart and relate to cardiac output? What other indexes might we observe? Learning Objectives Define Laplace’s Law Understand how changing Recreate the Wiggers’ afterload normally alters the Diagram and define its Pressure-Volume loop and its phases by ventricular valve relationship to contractility opening and closure Describe the Frank-Starling Describe the major heart relationship, how the sounds and their genesis relationship requires a change in preload, and its link Recreate the relationship to length-dependent between the Wiggers’ activation Diagram and a Pressure- Volume Loop Determine cardiac output Cell Physiology Suggested Review Concepts Cardiac Anatomy Ventricular chambers Atrial Chambers Major Veins and Arteries All 4 Valves Krebs Cycle LaPlace’s Law LaPlace’s Law Need to generate Pressure Bernoulli’s principle- Fluid moves with a pressure gradient from higher pressure to lower pressure Contraction can generate pressure Valves prevent flow in the “wrong” direction Valves open with a pressure gradient http://www.old-ib.bioninja.com.au/standard-level/topic-6-human-health-and/62-the-transport-system.html LaPlace’s Law Cardiac shape relates to pressure Heart is not a sphere, but can use this as an approximation r u Pressure (P) 2 𝜎𝜎 𝑢𝑢 𝑃𝑃 = 𝑟𝑟 Wall stress (force, tension, σ) in the wall Radius (r) of the sphere Thickness (u) of the wall Thickness is sometimes ignored LaPlace’s Law Clinical Echocardiography: determine r, u Multiple views for diameter Short axis B-Mode PLAX B-Mode M-Mode (Mid Myocardial,PLAX) r u u 2r https://www.asecho.org/guidelines-search/ LaPlace’s Law Cardiac shape relates to pressure Heart is not a sphere, but can Larger radius=less pressure use this as an approximation can be generated Dilated cardiomyopathies Pressure (P) 2 𝜎𝜎 𝑢𝑢 Self Test: Why might a wall 𝑃𝑃 = thicken or LV chamber get smaller 𝑟𝑟 in hypertension? Wall stress (force, tension, σ) in the wall Note: If it hasn’t already, Laplace’s law will come up again Radius (r) of the sphere in physiology Thickness (u) of the wall Cylinders won’t have the “2” Thickness is sometimes ignored Often won’t see thickness (u), for example: alveoli Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle Want a sequence linking the contraction with pressure and volume (or flow, the change in volume) Focus on Left Ventricle Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle Action potentials cause contraction ECG shows how action potentials move along the heart Contraction moves blood by increasing pressure Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle P-wave is atrial depolarization and contraction So this is a phase of atrial contraction and filling of the ventricle Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle QRS complex is ventricular depolarization and contraction Ventricular pressure goes up, closing the mitral valve All valves are closed, so phase is isovolumic (same- volume) i.e. Isovolumic Contraction Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle When the LV pressure exceeds the pressure in the aorta (dashed line), the aortic valve opens Blood exits from the heart, reducing its volume i.e. Ejection Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle As the heart’s contraction fades and the heart begins to relax, the aortic valve closes The heart relaxes and pressure falls (wall tension drops) despite there being no open valves i.e. isovolumic relaxation Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle The heart’s relaxation makes the LV pressure drop below the atrial pressure so the mitral valve opens This begins filling of the heart This filling is typically rapid i.e. Early Rapid Filling Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle If the heart rate is slow enough, there is a separation of the early rapid filling and the next p-wave There is little flow during this period, it is a “rest” phase i.e. Diastasis Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle A new P-wave occurs, causing more atrial filling. This phase is considered “late” because it comes after the prior filling i.e. Late Atrial Filling or Atrial Systole Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle Contraction and ejection = Systole Ventricular Relaxation and Filling = Diastole Note: Systole roughly correlates with QT interval But systole and diastole are defined by valve closing, NOT by ecg, etc Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle Contraction and ejection = Systole Ventricular Relaxation and Filling = Diastole Note: Systole roughly correlates with QT interval But systole and diastole are defined by valve closing, NOT by ECG, etc Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Clinical Echocardiography: timing of valves M-Mode (Mitral valve, PLAX) E A https://www.asecho.org/guidelines-search/ Wiggers’ Diagram Phases of the Cardiac Cycle Volume and Flow Early Rapid Filling “E-Wave” Late Atrial Filling “A-wave” A-wave is during ATRIAL systole A-wave is during VENTRICULAR diastole Ao of Volume Derivative Ejection =Flow E-wave A-wave Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Clinical Echocardiography: flow for durations Pulsed Wave Doppler (transmitral flow, Apical 4-ch) E A Diastasis IVRT https://www.asecho.org/guidelines-search/ Wiggers’ Diagram Clinical Echocardiography: flow for durations E- and A-waves don’t change Exercise: Why might the E- much with heart rate wave or ejection duration change if a P-wave fires Diastasis is shortened (lost) earlier? What is constant?

(What would happen to atrial systole if there was no decremental conduction?) Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram LV vs RV Notes about right ventricle RV and LV contract at similar (RV) versus left ventricle (LV) times, but filling or ejection in the RV can be noticeably RV wall is thinner (smaller u) different than the LV RV does not generate as much Typically pathophysiologic when pressure they are dyssynchronous peak RV pressure ~25 mmHg Peak LV pressure ~120 mmHg Guyton 9-8 Heart Sounds Heart Sounds Auscultation Sources of Sounds: Listening to sounds Valves Common: heart, lung, pulse When valves shut, they vibrate pressure (Korotkoff sound) Might not be a significant Auscultation of the heart listens contributor to sounds of the heart Deceleration of blood Provides information on Slowing of blood causes a sound changing blood flow wave Heart Sounds Four heart sounds 1st as the mitral valve closes (S1) “Lub” 2nd as the aortic valve closes opens (S2) “Dub” 3rd as blood decelerates during early rapid filling (S3) 4th as blood decelerates during late atrial filling (S4) 3rd and 4th are typically pathologic (stiff or dilated 4th ventricles) Guyton 9-8 Lub Dub Lub Dub Heart Sounds LV and RV be relatively General Heart Sound synchronized examples: If the RV does not close the https://www.merckmanuals.com /professional/cardiovascular- pulmonary valve at the same disorders/approach-to-the- time the LV closes the aortic cardiac-patient/cardiac- valve, it may “Split” auscultation S2 becomes A2, P2, for an https://stanfordmedicine25.stan aortic and pulmonary sound ford.edu/the25/cardiac.html Wiggers’ Diagram Integration ECG indicates cellular electrophysiology Pressure (and change in volume) is generated by contraction (excitation- contraction coupling, Myosin ATPase) Pressure can be modulated by shape of heart (LaPlace’s Law) Guyton 9-8 Wiggers’ Diagram Summary Blood flow and valve opening are Wiggers’ Phases as defined by the pressure gradient dependent Left Ventricle: Systole Isovolumic Contraction LaPlace’s Law connects myocyte Ejection contraction to ventricular pressure Diastole Isovolumic Relaxation Wiggers’ diagram defines cardiac Early Rapid Filling phases by valve opening/closure Diastasis (if HR is slow enough) Late Atrial Filling (Atrial Systole) Heart sounds are from valve and flow changes Pressure-Volume Relationships Pressure-Volume Relationships 120 100 80 Pressure 60 40 20 MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Isovolumic Contraction 120 100 80 AoVO Pressure 60 IVC 40 20 MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Ejection 120 Ejection 100 AoVC 80 AoVO Pressure 60 IVC 40 20 MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Isovolumic Relaxation 120 Ejection 100 AoVC 80 AoVO Pressure 60 IVR IVC 40 20 MVO MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Early Rapid Filling 120 Ejection 100 AoVC 80 AoVO Pressure 60 IVR IVC 40 20 MVO E MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Diastasis 120 Ejection 100 AoVC 80 AoVO Pressure 60 IVR IVC 40 20 MVO E MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Diastasis Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Late Atrial Filling 120 Ejection 100 AoVC 80 AoVO Pressure 60 IVR IVC 40 20 MVO A E MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Diastasis Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Cardiac Function End diastolic volume (EDV)- 120 Ejection volume of the blood when the 100 mitral valve closes AoVC End systolic volume (ESV)- 80 AoVO volume of blood in the heart Pressure 60 when the aortic valve closes IVR IVC Stroke volume (SV)- difference between EDV and ESV 40 20 A Ejection fraction (EF)- percent of blood ejected (>50% normal) MVO E MVC 0 30 90 130 100*SV/EDV Volume 100*(EDV-ESV)/EDV ESV SV EDV LaPlace’s Law Clinical Echocardiography: determine r Use r and length at end systole and diastole to get EDV, ESV Short axis B-Mode PLAX B-Mode M-Mode (Mid Myocardial,PLAX) r u u 2r https://www.asecho.org/guidelines-search/ Pressure-Volume Relationships Cardiac Function 120 Ejection 100 AoVC 80 AoVO Pressure 60 IVR IVC 40 20 MVO A E MVC 0 30 90 130 Volume Diastasis Guyton 9-8 Pressure-Volume Relationships Afterload: Defining Contractility/Inotropy Pressure-Volume Relationships Afterload: Defining Contractility/Inotropy AoVO Changing Afterload 120 Changing the conditions the 100 AoVO ventricle faces during AoVC contraction 80 AoVO i.e. changing aortic pressure Pressure AoVO 60 AoVO Changes aortic valve opening 40 (AoVO) and closing (AoVC) Changes ESV 20 MVC Does not change mitral valve 0 closing (MVC) 30 90 130 Volume Self Test: Did we change preload?
