Phases of Cardiac Cycle
• ventricular ejection
• isovolumetric relaxation
– Ventricles expand
• Ventricles depolarize
– this initiates the QRS complex
– Depolarization followed by the contraction
• Follow events that occur on left side of heart (note: similar events
occur on the right side of the heart but with lower blood pressure /
left and right heart functions must occur simultaneously)

Three variables govern stroke volume:
• Cardiostimulatory effect
• Cardioinhibitory effect
• myocardial infarction
• chronic hypertension
• valvular insufficiency
• congenital defects in heart structure.
