Frank-Starling
Pregunta 11
Pregunta
The Frank-Starling law states that the [blank_start]stroke volume[blank_end] of the heart increases in response to an an increase in the volume of blood filling the heart (end diastolic volume), when all other factors remain constant.
Another way to state this: a large volume of blood flows into the ventricle, the blood will stretch the walls of the heart, causing a greater expansion during diastole, which in turn increases the force of the contraction and thus the quantity of blood that is pumped into the aorta during diastole. The increased volume of blood stretches the ventricular wall, causing cardiac muscle to contract more forcefully.

cardiac output
