| | Cardiac cycle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Ventricular diastole is when the ventricles are relaxing, while atrial diastole is when the atria are relaxing. | | | The term diastole is synonymous with relaxation of a muscle. | | | Cardiac Diastole is the period of time when the heart relaxes after contraction in preparation for refilling with circulating blood. |

| | During early diastole in patients with an isolated defect, flow was initially from the right to the left ventricle and subsequently reversed to become left to right in 29 (91%) of 32 studies. | | | We concluded that flow continued from right to left during early diastole and that the flow reversal seen in these patients was the same left to right flow demonstrated by the previous investigators (2). | | | Diastole was subdivided into an early and a late phase. |

| | Update in Anaesthesia Issue 18 |
| | As about 80% of the total coronary arterial flow occurs during diastole, a pressure around the aortic diastole pressure becomes the primary determinant of the pressure gradient for coronary flow. | | | Coronary blood flow occurs predominatly during diastole when cardiac muscle relaxes and no longer obstructs blood flow through ventricular vessels. | | | Conversely, right coronary arterial flow rate is highest during systole, because th aortic pressure driving flow increases more during systole (from 80 to 120mmHg) that the right ventricular pressure which opposes flow (from 0 to 25mmHg). |

| | Normal Circulation and Congestive Heart Failure |
| | During diastole: the major variable which is changing is the radius of the ventricle as it fills with blood, since the radius changes in proportion to the cube root of the volume, while the pressure changes little (see the cardiac cycle diagram) and the thickness changes little. | | | In clinical terms, it is the stretch on the ventricular fibers just prior to contraction, often approximated by the end-diastolic volume or end-diastolic pressure. | | | It should be noted that virtually all patients with systolic dysfunction also have some degree of diastolic dysfunction as well, resulting from the decreased compliance of the dilated or hypertrophied ventricle. |

| | At a constant perfusion pressure of 62.5 mmHg, the transition from (static) diastole to (static) systole at constant muscle length ("isometric contraction") was calculated to reduce flow by 74% (from 18.9 to 5.0 ml/min/g) and by 64% (from 12.6 to 4.6 ml/min/g), for the muscle fixed at slack length and 90% of Lmax, respectively. | | | Modeling pressure-flow relations in cardiac muscle in diastole and systole. | | | Increasing muscle length from slack length to 90% of Lmax decreases coronary flow by 34% in diastole and by 8% in systole. |

| | Math representation of systole & diastole |
| | The 2 phases in diastole were relaxation and passive filling. | | | In systole, the phases are slightly more difficult to visualize than they were in diastole, since the increase in contraction intensity continues beyond the point where blood ejection starts (the point in the figure, above, in which ventricle pressure exceeds aortic pressure). | | | Modeling systole is similar to diastole, in that there are two distinct phases in each. |

| | British Medical Journal: Abandoning diastole |
| | When systolic pressure is raised, the level of diastolic pressure is usually irrelevant for the purpose of therapeutic decision making. | | | This confusion among doctors and uncertainties about treatment strategies must be a major explanation underlying the appalling levels of blood pressure control in the United Kingdom and other European countries. | | | The key issue in hypertension management in primary care is the treatment of those patients who will benefit from treatment and to ensure that treatment failures are addressed by modifying drug treatment to achieve control of blood pressure. |

| | Cardiac Cycles |
| | During diastole, the atria relax as oxygenated blood from the lungs fills the left atrium and deoxygenated (venous) blood from other parts of the body fills the right atrium. | | | One heartbeat—a cardiac cycle—consists of two parts called systole and diastole. | | | During systole the ventricles contract, forcing the blood into the pulmonary artery to be reoxygenated in the lungs, and into the aorta for systemic distribution of oxygenated blood. |
