  2. Cardiac output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_output

    Major factors influencing cardiac output – heart rate and stroke volume, both of which are variable. [1]In cardiac physiology, cardiac output (CO), also known as heart output and often denoted by the symbols , ˙, or ˙, [2] is the volumetric flow rate of the heart's pumping output: that is, the volume of blood being pumped by a single ventricle of the heart, per unit time (usually measured ...

  3. Cardiovascular fitness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiovascular_fitness

    Cardiovascular fitness is a component of physical fitness, which refers to a person's ability to deliver oxygen to the working muscles, including the heart.Cardiovascular fitness is improved by sustained physical activity (see also Endurance Training) and is affected by many physiological parameters, including cardiac output (determined by heart rate multiplied by stroke volume), vascular ...

  4. Cardiorespiratory fitness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiorespiratory_fitness

    The cardiovascular system responds to changing demands on the body by adjusting cardiac output, blood flow, and blood pressure. Cardiac output is defined as the product of heart rate and stroke volume which represents the volume of blood being pumped by the heart each minute. Cardiac output increases during physical activity due to an increase ...

  5. Cardiac physiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_physiology

    Major Factors Influencing Cardiac Output - Cardiac output is influenced by heart rate and stroke volume, both of which are also variable. [1] SVs are also used to calculate ejection fraction, which is the portion of the blood that is pumped or ejected from the heart with each contraction. To calculate ejection fraction, SV is divided by EDV.

  6. Cardiovascular physiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiovascular_physiology

    Cardiac output (= heart rate * stroke volume. Can also be calculated with Fick principle, palpating method.) Stroke volume (= end-diastolic volume − end-systolic volume) Ejection fraction (= stroke volume / end-diastolic volume) Cardiac output is mathematically ` to systole [clarification needed] Inotropic, chronotropic, and dromotropic states

  7. Stroke volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke_volume

    In cardiovascular physiology, stroke volume (SV) is the volume of blood pumped from the ventricle per beat. Stroke volume is calculated using measurements of ventricle volumes from an echocardiogram and subtracting the volume of the blood in the ventricle at the end of a beat (called end-systolic volume [note 1]) from the volume of blood just prior to the beat (called end-diastolic volume).

  9. Fick principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick_principle

    Therefore, using the assumed Fick determination, the approximated cardiac output for an average man (1.9 m3) is: Cardiac Output = (125 mL O 2 /minute × 1.9) / (200 mL O 2 /L − 150 mL O 2 /L) = 4.75 L/min. Cardiac output may also be estimated with the Fick principle using production of carbon dioxide as a marker substance. [3]
