Cardiac cycle — Flashcards

Which phase in the SA node accounts for its pacemaker activity and automaticity?_____

How do aortic and ventricular pressure change during reduced ventricular ejection?_____

Slowed conduction through the AV node normally causes a _____-msec delay, allowing time for ventricular filling

The normal heart sound _____ is loudest at the left upper sternal border

How does ventricular volume change during atrial systole?_____

The y descent on jugular venous pulse corresponds to _____

The heart sound _____ may be audible during isovolumetric contraction

How does aortic pressure change during rapid ventricular ejection?_____

The increase in atrial pressure caused by atrial systole appears on the venous pulse curve as the _____ wave

What is the approximate normal pressure in the left ventricle (systolic and diastolic)? _____
