Muscle 4. Define extrasystole. An extra beat occurring before the time a normal contraction would occur. 5. Respond to the following questions if you used a physiograph. What was the effect of stimulation of the heart during ventricular contraction? No effect. During ventricular relaxation (first portion)? Extrasystole. During the pause interval? No effect. What does this indicate about the refractory period of cardiac muscle? Much longer than that of skeletal muscle. 218 Copyright © 2011 Pearson

There are several types of cardiomyopathies but they all fall into one of four main categories; these categories are dilated cardiomyopathy‚ hypertrophic cardiomyopathy‚ restrictive cardiomyopathy‚ and arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia‚ each with its own believed cause‚ symptoms‚ treatment‚ and prognosis. The most common form of this disease is dilated cardiomyopathy. Dilated cardiomyopathy is a condition in which the heart muscle becomes dilated by stretching

The research report is divided into two different tasks interlinked with the Cardiovascular System. The first part is based on the conduction pathway of heart and its different stages. Whereas‚ the other task is based on a case study in regards of blood vessels‚ baroreceptors‚ kidneys‚ adrenal glands and heart rate that has affect the pulse and blood pressure of the patient.

relation to the normal heart sounds‚ when would you expect to hear the abnormal sound Dr. Baker heard? Explain your answer. A ventricular septal defect is a systolic murmur. The abnormal sounds can be heard during or after the first heart sound and ends before or during the second heart sound. 3. The defect in Caleb’s heart allows blood to mix between the two ventricular chambers. a. Due to this defect would you expect the blood to move from left-to-right ventricle or right-to-left ventricle during
