Assume that one ventricle of a child’s heart has an EDV of 90 mL, an ESV of 60 mL, and a cardiac output of 2.55 L/min. What are the child’s stroke volume (SV), ejection fraction (EF), and heart rate (HR)?a. SV = 60 mL; EF = 33%; HR = 85 bpmb. SV = 30 mL; EF = 60%; HR = 75 bpmc. SV = 150 mL; EF = 67%; HR = 42 bpmd. SV = 30 mL; EF = 33%; HR = 85 bpme. Not enough information is given to calculate these.
In a standard EPS, briefly explain what is the difference between “pacing after sensing” and “fixed pacing”; in the study of inducibility to ventricular tachycardia (VT)?
A 43-year-old woman has congestive heart failure after a myocardial infarction. Before the myocardial infarction, she had a cardiac output of 5 L/min and a right atrial pressure of 0 mm Hg at rest. The solid curve in the graph shows the relationship between right atrial pressure and cardiac output in a normal heart. Which of the following lettered points best represents the change in this relationship after the development of congestive heart failure?
