3 functions of the cardiovascular system
1. oxygen/nutrient delivery
2. removal of carbon dioxide/waste products
3. creates pressure gradient that produces unidirectional blood flow
what are the five stages of the cardiac cycle?
1. late diastole
2. atrial systole
3. isovolumic ventricular contraction
4. ventricular ejection
5. isovolumic ventricular relaxation
what is the position of the heart valves during isovolumic relaxation?
AV and semilunar valves are closed
what is the position of the heart valves during the ventricular filling phase?
,AV valves open, semilunar closed
what are the three phases of ventricular filling?
1. rapid filling
2. reduced filling
3. atrial contraction

define stroke volume
,the amount of blood pumped out of the heart with each heartbeat
what is the equation for stroke volume?
[(EDV-ESV)/EDV] x 100
define cardiac output
amount of blood pumped by the heart each minute
what is the equation for cardiac output?
SV x HR
define ejection fraction
volumetric fraction of blood ejected from a ventricle of the heart with each heartbeat
what is the equation for ejection fraction?
(SV/EDV) x 100
