Basic Definitions
Cardiac Output is defined as:
Stroke Volume X Heart Rate
Blood Pressure is defined as:
Cardiac Output XSystemic Vascular Resistance
What happens to each of these during: Exercise? When LV filling is impaired?? When systolic function is impaired???

Relationships to Remember
“Compliance” is proportional to change in volume
over change in pressure
“Stiffness” is the inverse.
Stiffness is proportional to change in pressure over
change in volume

Relationships to Remember
“Preload” and “afterload” are defined as the wall tension during diastole and systole, respectively
Wall tension is defined as:
P x r2h
(where h = wall thickness)
![Page 18: Bio-Med 350 Normal Heart Function and Congestive Heart Failure.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d885503460f94a6c94d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Bio-Med 350
Preload
Is the wall tension during ventricular filling
Is defined as P x r 2h
during diastole!!!
![Page 19: Bio-Med 350 Normal Heart Function and Congestive Heart Failure.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d885503460f94a6c94d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Why is volume the most important determinant of ventricular preload??
(Hint: look at the cardiac cycle)

Afterload
Is the wall tension during ventricular ejection
Is defined as: P x r 2h
during systole!!!
![Page 22: Bio-Med 350 Normal Heart Function and Congestive Heart Failure.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d885503460f94a6c94d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Bio-Med 350
Why is systolic pressure the most important determinant of ventricular afterload???
(Hint: look again at the cardiac cycle)

How do we relate myocardial performance to:
Loading conditions: i.e. preload and afterload
And how does “myocardial contractility” relate to all of the above??

The Thermodilution Method
Similar in principle to the Fick method Uses change in temperature per unit
time, rather than change in O2 saturation
Requires a thermal probe in the right side of the heart

Pressure - Volume Loops
Relate L.V. pressure to L.V. volume in a single cardiac cycle
Can be used to explore the effects of various therapies on stroke volume and L.V.E.D.P.

Heart Failure
Forward Failure:
Inability to pump blood forward to meet the body’s demands
Backward Failure:
Ability to meet the body’s demands, at the cost of abnormally high filling pressures
![Page 41: Bio-Med 350 Normal Heart Function and Congestive Heart Failure.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d885503460f94a6c94d/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Systolic vs. Diastolic Dysfunction
Systolic dysfunction• Decreased stroke volume• Decreased forward cardiac output• Almost always associated with diastolic
dysfunction as well Diastolic Dysfunction
• One third of patients with clinical heart failure have normal systolic function – i.e. “pure” diastolic dysfunction

Left Ventricular enlargement
Concentric LVH• Increased LVEDP• Increased incidence
of backward failure• Decreased wall
stress at expense of increased oxygen demand and increased LVEDP
Eccentric hypertrophy (cavity dilation and hypertrophy)
• Seen in volume-overload states
• Seen after acute MI (post-infarction “remodeling”)
• Increased stroke volume at the expense of increased wall stress, oxygen demand and LVEDP

Right Heart Failure
Very commonly a sequela of Left Heart Failure • LVEDP • PCW• PA pressure• Right heart pressure
overload
Cardiac causes• Pulmonic valve stenosis
• RV infarction Parenchymal pulmonary
causes• COPD
• ILD Pulmonary vascular disease
• Pulmonary embolism
• Primary Pulmonary hypertension

Right heart vs. Left heart failure
Left Heart failure• Pulmonary congestion• Reduced forward
cardiac output:• Fatigue• Renal insufficiency• Cool extremities• Decreased mentation
Right Heart failure• Neck vein distension• Hepatic congestion• Peripheral edema• Also may result in
reduced forward cardiac output, but with clear lung fields
