  2. Wiggers diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiggers_diagram

    A Wiggers diagram modified from [1] 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 ...

  3. Cardiac cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_cycle

    CGI-animated graphic of the human heart, sectioned, with motions and timing synced with the Wiggers diagram. The section shows: 1) the opened ventricles contracting once per heartbeat—that is, once per each cardiac cycle; 2) the (partly obscured) mitral valve of the left heart; 3) the tricuspid and pulmonary valves of the right heart—note ...

  4. File:Wiggers Diagram.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Wiggers_Diagram.svg

    English: A Wiggers diagram, showing the cardiac cycle events occuring in the left ventricle. In the atrial pressure plot: wave "a" corresponds to atrial contraction, wave "c" corresponds to an increase in pressure from the mitral valve bulging into the atrium after closure, and wave "v" corresponds to passive atrial filling.

  5. Isovolumetric contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isovolumetric_contraction

    Wiggers diagram of the cardiac cycle, with isometric contraction marked at upper left. In cardiac physiology, isometric contraction is an event occurring in early systole during which the ventricles contract with no corresponding volume change (isometrically). This short-lasting portion of the cardiac cycle takes place while all heart valves ...

  6. Carl J. Wiggers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_J._Wiggers

    Carl J. Wiggers (May 28, 1883 – April 28, 1963) was a doctor and medical researcher famous for his heart and blood-pressure research. He developed the Wiggers diagram , which is commonly used in teaching of cardiovascular research.

  7. Systole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systole

    A Wiggers diagram, showing various events during systole (here primarily displayed as ventricular systole, or ventricular contraction). The very short interval (about 0.03 second) of isovolumetric, or fixed-volume, contraction begins (see upper left) at the R peak of the QRS complex on the electrocardiogram graph-line. + Ejection phase begins ...

  9. Isovolumic relaxation time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isovolumic_relaxation_time

    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 ...
