The venous pressure increases during the second heart sound because of the increased negative pressure.
2nd heart sound heard when AV valves close,ventricular diastole
Each time the heart contracts a sound is heard, a gauge on the sphygmomanometer measures the pressure that blood exerts during ventricle contraction.
Isovolumetric relaxation: In this phase the ventricles relax, the intraventricular pressure decreases. When this occurs, a pressure gradient reversal causes the aortic and pulmonary valves to abruptly close (aortic before pulmonary), causing the second heart sound. Isovolumetric relaxation: In this phase the ventricles relax, the intraventricular pressure decreases. When this occurs, a pressure gradient reversal causes the aortic and pulmonary valves to abruptly close (aortic before pulmonary), causing the second heart sound.
* Atria are relaxed * Ventricles are relaxed * Semilunar valves are closed * Atrioventricular valves are open During this phase the blood moves passively from the venous system into the ventricles ( about 80 % of blood fills the ventricles during this phase.
The sounds heard while measuring blood pressure in this way are called the Korotkoff sounds, and undergo 5 phases: # initial 'tapping' sound (cuff pressure = systolic pressure) # sounds increase in intensity # sounds at maximum intensity # sounds become muffled # sounds disappear
Systole is the top number of a blood pressure reading. It is the heart contracting forcing blood out. Indicated by the first heart sound. Diastole is the bottom number of a blood pressure reading. It is the heart relaxing bringing blood back in.
The closing of the mitral and tricuspid valves results in the first heart sound. The closing of the aortic and pulmonic valves results in the second heart sound.AV valve
The closure of the Mitral and tricuspid valves causes us to hear the first heart sound or S1 (M1T1) while the closure of the aortic and pulmonary valves allows us to hear the second heart sound or S2 (A2P2).
The sound is caused by the closing of valves in the heart.
The pulmonary valve (sometimes referred to as the pulmonic valve) is thesemilunar valve of the heart that lies between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery and has three cusps. Similar to the aortic valve, the pulmonary valve opens in ventricular systole, when the pressure in the right ventricle rises above the pressure in the pulmonary artery. At the end of ventricular systole, when the pressure in the right ventricle falls rapidly, the pressure in the pulmonary artery will close the pulmonary valve. The closure of the pulmonary valve contributes the P2 component of the second heart sound (S2). The right heart is a low-pressure system, so the P2 component of the second heart sound is usually softer than the A2 component of the second heart sound. However, it is physiologically normal in some young people to hear both components separated during inhalation. The function are Prevents the back flow of blood as it is pumped from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery.
Because our ear drums are moved only by sound pressure variations we measure the sound usually as Sound Pressure Level (SPL) or sound pressure in pascal and not as sound intensity in W/m².
No. The heart sounds are caused by the closure of heart valves. The first heart sound is caused by the closure of the AV valves (tricuspid and mitral). The second heart sound is the result of the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valve after the completion of systole. Turbulence of blood flow through the aortic valve would cause a murmur (an abnormal heart sound) during systole.
The speed of sound does not change with atmospheric pressure. The speed of sound changes with temperature.
