pressure changes in the heart

Cards (11)

  • when the pressure of the blood in the atria is greater then in the ventricles
    when do the tricuspid and bicuspid valves open
  • when the pressure in the ventricles is greater than the aorta
    when do the semi lunar valves open
  • tricuspid and bicuspid valves

    What are the atrioventricular valves?
  • pressure change in the heart
    what does this graph represent
  • the arteries pressure
    what does the thick blue line represent
  • the ventricular pressure
    what does the thick green line represent
  • the atrium pressure
    what does the dotted blue line represent
  • the atrioventricular valves are closed

    when the atrium pressure line and the ventricular line overlap primarily what does this mean
  • the atrioventricular valves are open

    when the atrium pressure line and the ventricular line overlap after the peak what does this mean
  • the semi lunar valves are open

    when the artery pressure line and the ventricular pressure line overlap primary what does this mean
  • the semi lunar valves are closed

    when the artery pressure line and the ventricular pressure line overlap after the peak what does this mean
