What is Understanding Cardiac Output and Blood Flow about?
Cardiac output is the volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute and is determined by heart rate and stroke volume. Stroke volume depends on factors like preload, contractility, and afterload. The Frank-Starling law of the heart states that stronger ventricular contraction occurs with increased preload or end-diastolic volume. Cardiac output, along with factors like blood volume, venous return, and kidney function, influence blood pressure and circulation throughout the body.
