Summary Introduction

To describe:

The phases of the cardiac cycle.

Introduction:

A cardiac cycle includes all the events within the heart from the start of one heartbeat to the initiation of the next. During a single cardiac cycle, all chambers within the heart experience alternate periods of contraction and relaxation. The contraction of a heart chamber is called systole. The relaxation phase of a heart chamber is called diastole.

Describe the mechanical events of the cardiac cycle. (use terms like atrial systole, atrial diastole, ventricular diastole, ventricular systole, isovolumic ventricular contraction, isovolumic ventricular relaxation, ventricular ejection, period of rapid filling)
What are the phases of the cardiac cycle? Describe each phasewith respect to which heart chambers are in systole or diastole,which valves are open or closed, and blood flow into or out ofthe chambers.
Complete the table below to describe what happens with the blood flow, volume, and pressure during the four phases of the cardiac cycle. Which valves open/close during these phases? Ventricular Isovolumetric Ventricular Isovolumetric Filling Contraction Ejection Relaxation Blood Flow Low Ventricular Volume Ventricular Pressure Aortic Pressure
