A patient has a heart rate of 70 beats per minute, an EDV of 110 ml, and an ESV of 70 ml. What is the patient's cardiac output?

2.8 L/min

How much blood is pumped from each ventricle during the ventricular ejection phase?

70 mL

Calculate the stroke volume (SV) of a patient whose EDV is 140 milliliters and whose ESV is 60 milliliters.

80 mL

Which of the following would happen to cardiac output if sympathetic nervous system stimulation of the heart had positive chronotropic effects only?

Heart rate would increase, and cardiac output would decrease.

How will the cardiac output change if you double the heart rate but reduce the stroke volume by one-half?

It will not change.

The main pacemaker of the heart is the __________.

SA node

What best describes the Frank-Starling law?

The Frank-Starling law states that the more the ventricular muscle cells are stretched, the more forcefully they contract.

Which of the following happens immediately after the P wave?

The atria contract.

Determine the impact if the connection between the sinoatrial (SA) node and the atrioventricular (AV) node becomes blocked.

The ventricles will contract more slowly.

What activity is occurring in the heart during the Q-T interval on an electrocardiogram (ECG)?

The ventricular cells are undergoing action potentials.

According to the Frank-Starling law, a bigger preload will result in __________.

a stronger contraction

The cusps of the atrioventricular valves attach to the papillary muscles via the __________.

chordae tendineae

Part complete Which of the following is not an effect of the sympathetic nervous system?

decrease in heart rate

Digoxin is a positive inotropic agent derived from the foxglove family of plants. Which of the following is an effect of digoxin?

decreased ESV

Hemorrhage would lead to a __________ preload and therefore __________ cardiac output.

decreased; decreased

The electrical impulse is __________ as it passes through the AV node, which permits the atria to contract __________ ventricles.

delayed; before

The maximum amount of blood in the ventricles at the end of the ventricular filling phase is called __________.

end-diastolic volume

Coronary circulation involves the delivery of oxygenated blood to the:

heart

The drug digoxin increases the concentration of intracellular calcium ions in cardiac muscle cells. Select what effect you would see.

increase in stroke volume

What ion movement changes the membrane potential in a contractile cell from negative to positive during the rapid depolarization phase?

influx of sodium ions

Ventricular systole begins during the __________ phase of the cardiac cycle.

isovolumetric contraction

As ventricular systole begins, all four heart valves are closed during the:

isovolumetric contraction phase

The heart is situated in the middle of the thoracic cavity in a region known as the:

mediastinum

The AV valves close when __________.

pressure in the ventricles increases

Blood that leaves the right ventricle enters the __________.

pulmonary trunk

What two values are needed in order to calculate cardiac output (CO) for a ventricle?

stroke volume (SV) and heart rate (HR)

The aortic valve closes when __________.

the pressure in the left ventricle falls below aortic pressure

Blood from the systemic circuit returns to the heart via the __________.

venae cavae
