0 the period of time when the heart is filling with blood after contraction (= when blood is pushed out of the heart)
1 the part of a heart’s action during which it fills with blood
Velocities were lower than 200 cm/sec and never occupied die whole systole or diastole.
Inspiration, marked as an upward deflection on the respirometer, leads to marked augmentation of the passive forward flow during diastole.
Thus, early diastolic left ventricularfillingis impaired with redistribution of filling to late diastole and increased dependence on atrial systole.
As the ring is circumferential, it impedes the opening of the leaflet during diastole.
In young persons with compliant arteries, this wave arrives back to the aorta in diastole.
Velocities and integrals of forward flow in systole, early diastole and late diastole were measured; as was duration of pulmonary regurgitation.
The jet was greatest during ventricular systole and was not seen during diastole.
Those factors reducing aortic diastolic pressure, or shortening diastole, will compromise this flow.
