    Wiggers diagram of the cardiac cycle, with isovolumic relaxation marked at top. Isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) is an interval in the cardiac cycle, from the aortic component of the second heart sound, that is, closure of the aortic valve, to onset of filling by opening of the mitral valve. [1] It can be used as an indicator of diastolic ...

    The isovolumetric contraction phase lasts about 0.05 seconds, [1] but this short period of time is enough to build up a sufficiently high pressure that eventually overcomes that of the aorta and the pulmonary artery upon opening of the semilunar valves. This process, therefore, helps maintain the correct unidirectional flow of blood through the ...

    A Wiggers diagram illustrate events and details of the cardiac cycle with electrographic trace lines, which depict (vertical) changes in a parameter's value as time elapses left-to-right. [2] The ventricular "diastole", or relaxation, begins with "isovolumic relaxation", then proceeds through three sub-stages of inflow, namely: "rapid inflow ...
