• The atria and ventricles are electrically isolated
from one another and all electrical signals pass
through the AV node (in a normal, healthy heart)
• The SA node is the main pacemaker of the heart –
if uncontrolled it will generate a HR of 100bpm
• Sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve fibres
innervate the SA node to control heart rate
• If the SA node were to fail, pacemaker cells in the
AV node and His-Purkinje system take over (at a
much slower rate)

Cardiac Output
www.stctrainingsolutions.co.uk | 01895 730020 | [email protected]
Interactive CPD Series | Episode 8 | FREC 4: Workbook 1
Cardiac Output = Heart Rate x Stroke Volume
• Changing heart rate changes cardiac output
• Certain arrythmias affect both heart rate and stroke volume
• Heart failure is a weakening of the cardiac muscle• This reduces stroke volume, and therefore cardiac output

Heart Disease

Interactive CPD Series | Episode 8 | FREC 4: Workbook 1
• Heart disease – also known as coronary artery disease
• Blood flow is reduced to the cardiac muscle by narrow vessels
• Atheroma is the build up of fat within the blood vessels• Risk factors include high cholesterol, diabetes and high BP
• Arteriosclerosis is a permanent hardening of this atheroma • This may lead to Angina, MI and Ischaemic Stroke
