Chapter 14, Problem 3CP

Summary Introduction

To review:

Relation between venous return with stroke volume and cardiac output.

Introduction:

Frank-Starling law depicts the relationship between the strength of ventricular contraction, end diastolic volume, and the stroke volume. The end diastolic volume is the volume of the blood within the ventricles right in the beginning of the ventricular contraction and the stroke volume is the blood volume pumped by each ventricle per beat.
