  2. Pulmonary circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_circulation

    The other division of the circulatory system is the systemic circulation that begins with receiving the oxygenated blood from the pulmonary circulation into the left atrium. From the atrium the oxygenated blood enters the left ventricle where it is pumped out to the rest of the body, returning as deoxygenated blood back to the pulmonary ...

  3. Bode plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bode_plot

    The Bode plotter is an electronic instrument resembling an oscilloscope, which produces a Bode diagram, or a graph, of a circuit's voltage gain or phase shift plotted against frequency in a feedback control system or a filter. An example of this is shown in Figure 10.

  4. Human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body

    Diagram showing the circulatory system of the body The circulatory system consists of the heart and blood vessels ( arteries , veins and capillaries ). The heart propels the circulation of the blood, which serves as a "transportation system" to transfer oxygen , fuel, nutrients, waste products, immune cells and signaling molecules (i.e ...

  5. Hemodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemodynamics

    Diagram of the circulatory system. SVC/IVC - Superior/Inferior vena cava. The heart is the driver of the circulatory system, pumping blood through rhythmic contraction and relaxation. The rate of blood flow out of the heart (often expressed in L/min) is known as the cardiac output (CO).

  6. Circulatory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulatory_system

    In vertebrates, the circulatory system is a system of organs that includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood which is circulated throughout the body. [1] [2] It includes the cardiovascular system, or vascular system, that consists of the heart and blood vessels (from Greek kardia meaning heart, and Latin vascula meaning vessels).

  7. Wiggers diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiggers_diagram

    A Wiggers diagram, named after its developer, Carl Wiggers, is a unique diagram that has been used in teaching cardiac physiology for more than a century. [1] [2] In the Wiggers diagram, the X-axis is used to plot time subdivided into the cardiac phases, while the Y-axis typically contains the following on a single grid: Blood pressure. Aortic ...

  8. Circle of Willis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_Willis

    Diagram of the arterial circulation at the base of the brain (inferior view), the circle of Willis is drawn in the upper half. Blood flows up to the brain through the vertebral arteries and through the internal carotid arteries.

  9. Cardiac cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_cycle

    This is the ejection stage of the cardiac cycle; it is depicted (see circular diagram) as the ventricular systole–first phase followed by the ventricular systole–second phase. [2] After ventricular pressures fall below their peak(s) and below those in the trunks of the aorta and pulmonary arteries, the aortic and pulmonary valves close ...
