Is the Systolic pressure is a measure of blood pressure when the ventricles relax and fill with blood?

No. I think the systolic pressure is when ventricles constrict and the blood goes out , while the diastolic pressure is when ventricles relax and fill with blood.


As heart ventricles contract and then relax blood pressure inside of arteries change from?

systolic to diastolic


What is the phase in the cardiac cycle in which the ventricles relax between contractions?

The ventricles relax during diastole.


Relaxation of the ventricles is?

Is the beginning of the cardiac cycle when the ventricles start to relax all four chambers are in diastole.


Describe how heart contraction and relaxation influence coronary blood flow?

When relaxation or diastole is occurring in the atria blood flows through the atria and the AV valves into the ventricles. When contraction or systole is occurring in the atria the remaining blood that doesn't flow through during relaxation is pushed into the ventricles. As the atria relax, the ventricles begin contracting; ventricular pressure rises, closing the AV valves. Ventricular pressure continues rising until it exceeds the pressure in the large arteries stemming from the ventricles. The SL valves are forced open and blood is expelled from the ventricles into the aorta and pulmonary trunk. During this phase the ventricles relax because the blood is no longer compressed in their chambers. Blood expelled into the aorta and pulmonary trunk backflows toward the heart, which then closes the SL valves. During the ventricle contraction the atria stays in relaxation, filling with blood and when blood pressure on the atrial side of the AV valves exceeds that in the ventricles, the AV valves are forced open and ventricular filling begin all over again.

When the heart contracts what receives its blood supply?

Blood pressure is the force of blood against the inner walls of arterial blood vessels. Blood pressure rises when the ventricles contract and falls when the ventricles relax. Systolic pressure is the maximum pressure and diastolic pressure is the minimum pressure.


What is the name of the blood pressure measuered when the ventricles relax?

Diastolic pressure


Which chambers make up a persons blood pressure?

Blood pressure is not made up of chambers. Blood pressure measurements include the systolic number, indicating the higher pressure when the ventricles contract, and the diastolic pressure, the pressure when the ventricles relax.

When atria relax ventricles do what?

When relaxed, the atria expand, and then the ventricles contract.


Which ecg wave must occur before the ventricles can relax?

The QRS complex causes the ventricles to contract. This has to happen before they can relax.

Relaxation of the ventricles is?

Valves of the heart open and close due to?

Due to pressure changes in different chambers of the heart. For example, when the atria contract, the bicuspid and tricuspid valves open. They get closed, when the ventricles contract. When the ventricles contract the aortic and pulmonary valves open. Aortic and pulmonary valves close, when the ventricles relax.
