- 6. Filling volume of the ventricle at the end of diastole.
- 7. Assessing cardiac output helps to ensure adequate tissue ___.
- 9. Has an inverse relationship with cardiac output.
- 10. Amount of blood ejected from the heart with each heart beat.
- 12. Volume of blood ejected from the left ventricle during a single myocardial contraction
- 13. Term used to describe the intravascular pressure and flow that occurs when the heart muscle contracts and pumps blood throughout the body.
