| Learning Outcomes of the Course |
: |
1. The student knows the basic electrical and mechanical events of the cardiac cycle.
2. The student lists the five factors essential to proper ventricular pumping action.
3. The student defines cardiac output and understands the factors that determine cardiac output
4. States the relationship between ventricular filling and cardiac output (Starling´s Law of the Heart) and describes its importance in the control of cardiac output.
5. The student identifies the distribution of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves in the heart and lists the basic effects of these nerves on the heart.
6. The student understands the mechanisms involved in the short-term regulation of arterial pressure.
7. The student understands how central venous pressure can be used to assess circulatory states and how venous return, cardiac output, and central venous pressure are interrelated.
8. The student lists the factors that determine alveolar ventilation
9. The student defines diffusion capacity, and compare the diffusion of O2 with that of CO2 in the lungs.
10. The student defines the reactions of O2 with hemoglobin and the oxygen–hemoglobin dissociation curve. The student compares the pulmonary and systemic circulations, listing the main differences between them.
