Diastole (/daɪˈæstəli/ dy-AST-ə-lee) is the relaxed phase of the cardiac cycle when the chambers of the heart are refilling with blood. The contrasting...

one during which the heart muscle relaxes and refills with blood, called diastole, following a period of robust contraction and pumping of blood, called...

blood and the ventricles are the discharging chambers. In late ventricular diastole, the atrial chambers contract and send blood to the ventricles. This flow...

Diastolic heart murmurs are heart murmurs heard during diastole, i.e. they start at or after S2 and end before or at S1. Many involve stenosis of the atrioventricular...

with pathologies and are not routinely heard. Ventricular systole Cardiac diastole ECG The EKG complex. P=P wave, PR=PR interval, QRS=QRS complex, QT=QT interval...

allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle during diastole, and to close to prevent backflow (regurgitation) from the right ventricle...

ventricle, which causes a decrease in left ventricular relaxation during diastole, with resultant increased pressure and/or impaired filling. There is an...

ventricular filling during diastole. Preload is directly related to ventricular filling. As the relaxed ventricle fills during diastole, the walls are stretched...

as the chambers fill with blood is called diastole. Both the atria and ventricles undergo systole and diastole, and it is essential that these components...

valvular heart disease. Normally, the mitral valve is about 5 cm2 during diastole. Any decrease in area below 2 cm2 causes mitral stenosis. Early diagnosis...

valve) at the end of ventricular systole and the beginning of ventricular diastole. As the left ventricle empties, its pressure falls below the pressure in...

flow from left ventricular relaxation in early diastole (the E wave) to peak velocity flow in late diastole caused by atrial contraction (the A wave). It...

Diastole tenuistriata is a species of air-breathing land snail or semi-slug, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Euconulidae. This species...

In normal conditions, blood flows through an open mitral valve during diastole with contraction of the left atrium, and the mitral valve closes during...

pressure rises during systole and recoil when the blood pressure falls during diastole. Since the rate of blood entering these elastic arteries exceeds that leaving...

with heart failure. It occurs at the beginning of the middle third of diastole, approximately 0.12 to 0.18 seconds after S2. This produces a rhythm classically...

period during which the ventricles relax and refill with blood is known as diastole. The atria and ventricles work in concert, so in systole when the ventricles...

that causes blood to flow in the reverse direction during ventricular diastole, from the aorta into the left ventricle. As a consequence, the cardiac...
