Systole refers to the contraction of muscle fibers in the myocardium, diastole refers to relaxation of the fibers in the myocardium, stroke volume is the volume of blood ejected from the heart during the cardiac cycle. Finally the cardiac cycle refers to all of the aforementioned items and is the entire cycle of the heart from systole to diastole. Mike Branch HAMILTON ISLAND EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM.

What is the normal calculate cardiac output in liters if stroke is 75 ml and pulse is 75 bpm?

Cardiac output can be calculated using the formula: Cardiac Output (CO) = Stroke Volume (SV) × Heart Rate (HR). In this case, with a stroke volume of 75 ml and a heart rate of 75 bpm, the calculation would be CO = 75 ml × 75 bpm = 5,625 ml/min, or 5.625 liters per minute. Thus, the normal cardiac output is approximately 5.6 liters per minute.


Do reductions in Venus return cause reductions in both stroke volume and cardiac output?

Yes, reductions in Venus return can lead to decreases in both stroke volume and cardiac output. When venous return decreases, less blood is available for the heart to pump out, resulting in decreased stroke volume (amount of blood pumped per beat) which in turn leads to reduced cardiac output (amount of blood pumped per minute).


What happens if stroke volume increases?

If stroke volume increases, more blood is pumped out of the heart with each contraction. This results in an increase in cardiac output, which is the amount of blood pumped by the heart in one minute. An increase in stroke volume can also lead to a drop in heart rate to maintain overall cardiac output.


What effect does decreasing stroke volume have on pump rate?

Decreasing stroke volume leads to compensatory mechanisms such as increasing heart rate (pump rate) in order to maintain cardiac output. This relationship is known as the Frank-Starling mechanism, where the heart adjusts its pumping rate to accommodate changes in stroke volume.


What effect does stimulation of acetylcholine receptors of the heart have on cardiac output?

The effect would be an increase in cardiac output. However, there is a maximum level and then the heart would not have time to fill fully and the output would decrease.

Which statement is correct about cardiac output?

cardiac output is heart rate multiplied by stroke volume,


What does cardiac output do if the heart rate decreases?

Cardiac output = heart rate X stroke volume Thus, if the heart rate decreases so will the cardiac output, assuming the stroke volume is constant.


How does tachycardia affect stroke volume and cardiac output?

Lowers stroke volume


Is stroke volume usually larger than cardiac output?

No, cardiac output is the product of stroke volume and heart rate. Stroke volume refers to the amount of blood pumped by the heart in one beat, while cardiac output is the total amount of blood pumped by the heart in one minute. Typically, cardiac output is larger than stroke volume due to the inclusion of heart rate in the calculation.


How would a decrease in blood volume affect both stroke volume and cardiac output?

It's decreased ... unless the rate falls, which is the normal cardiac response.


What is the difference between stroke volume and cardiac output?

Cardiac output is the blood volume pushed out by the left ventricle per minute. Stroke volume is the volume of blood pushed out of the left ventricle per contraction of the heart (each heart beat). So stroke volume into heart rate / minute gives you cardiac output.


What is the formula for calculating cardiac output?

CO=HRXSV, Where HR is heart rate and SV is stroke volume


What does heart rate and stroke volume determine?

cardiac output


How is cardiac output calculated?

Cardiac output is calculated by multiplying the heart rate (number of heartbeats per minute) by the stroke volume (amount of blood ejected by the heart with each beat). The formula is: Cardiac output = Heart rate x Stroke volume.


Cardiac output is determined by?

Cardiac output is determined by the heart rate and stroke volume. The heart rate is the number of heartbeats per minute, while stroke volume is the amount of blood ejected from the heart with each beat. Cardiac output is calculated by multiplying heart rate by stroke volume.


Does the cardiac output equal heart rate multiplied by stroke volume?

Yes. CO = HR x SV CO - cardiac output HR - heart rate SV - stroke volume
