In blood pressure readingsystolic pressure is most closely associated with the?
Ventricular contraction. When ventricular pressure exceeds arterial pressure, the ventricles contract and eject blood into the aorta.
During which phase of the cardiac cycle do the ventricles of the heart contract?
There are many phases of the cardiac cycle- in total five stages occur. phase 1) - Isovolumetric ventricular contraction In response to ventricular depolarization, tension in the ventricles increases. The rise in pressure within the ventricles leads closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves. The pulmonic and aortic valves stay closes during the entire phase. 2) ventricular ejection: When ventricular pressure exceeds aortic and pulmonary arterial pressure 80MMHG- the aortic and pulmonic valves open and the ventricles eject 70% of the blood. 3) Isovolumetric relaxation: when ventricular pressure falls below pressure in the aorta and pulmonary artery, the aortic and pulmonic valves close. All valves are closed during this phase. Atrial diastole occurs as blood fills the atria.4) ventricular filling: atrial pressure exceeds ventricular pressure which causes the mitral and tricuspid valves to open. Blood then flows passively into the ventricles. About 70% of ventricular filling takes place during this phase. 5) atrial systole: known as the atrial kick, atrial systole coinciding with late ventricular diastole supplies the ventricles with the remaining blood for each heart beat. Diastole: This occurs in-between heartbeats to allow blood to refill the heartSystole: when the atria and ventricles contact For more information e-mail me: Elliottcollins@hotmail.co.uk I also have a VERY helpfull link belowHow_heart_works
Pressure of the blood coming out of the heart?
This pressure is termed the aortic pressure.
Why do the coronary arteries carry a greater blood flow during ventricular diastole than they do during ventricular systole?
Because not all of the blood that is in the heart, which was brought in during diastole, is ejected during systole. There is some back flow of blood, which can't make it over the aortic arch because of lack of pressure, into the heart.
When does the pulmonary semilunar valve open?
The two semilunar valves are the aortic valve and the pulmonic valve. The aortic valve opens when the left ventricle contracts, allowing blood to pass into the aorta. The pulmonic valve opens when the right ventricle contracts, allowing blood to pass into the pulmonary artery.
Does increasing arterial blood pressure increases blood flow?
YES! Changes in blood volume affect arterial pressure by changing cardiac output. An increase in blood volume increases central venous pressure. This increases right atrial pressure, right ventricular end - diastolic pressure and volume. This increase in ventricular preload increases ventricular stroke volume by the Frank - Starling mechanism. An increase in right ventricular stroke volume increases pulmonary venous blood flow to the left ventricular, thereby increasing left ventricular preload and stroke volume. An increase in stroke volume then increases cardiac output and arterial blood pressure. answered by HappyNess0423
Which chamber contracts to pump the blood at the highest pressure?
The Chamber that creates the highest pressure is the Left Ventricle. It must do this to get the blood all the way around the body, including right up to the top of the heat, but more importantly it must overcome the huge pressure in the Aorta. This is because of the Aortic Valve which sits stops the blood being pushy back formthe aorta into the ventrivle. The high blood pressure in the aorta holds this valve shut tight. A pressure greater than the one holding any vavle shut is required to open it, ie the ventricular presure must be greater than the aortic pressure is required to force the aortic valve open.
Is the blood pressure in systemic arteries greatest during atrial systole or ventricular systole?
ventricular systole
What are the conditions where you get 0 diastolic blood pressure?
aortic regurgitation
What is the term used for arterial pressure during ventricular systole?
Systolic Blood Pressure.
What term is used for arterial pressure during ventricular diastole?
diastolic blood pressure
What are the results of when the blood pressure in the capillaries greatly exceeds the osmotic pressure of the blood?
we produce from the cappilarries
