  1. cardiac output

    Cardiac output is the amount of blood the heart pumps through the circulatory system in a minute. It is calculated by multiplying the heart rate (number of heart beats per minute) by the stroke volume (the amount of blood pumped per beat). It is an important indicator of the health and efficiency of the heart and the cardiovascular system.

  1. Cardiac output

    Cardiac output is the volume of blood being pumped by the heart, in particular by a left or right ventricle in the time interval of one minute. CO may be measured in many ways, for example dm³/min. Q is furthermore the combined sum of output from the right ventricle and the output from the left ventricle during the phase of systole of the heart. An average resting cardiac output would be 5.6 L/min for a human male and 4.9 L/min for a female. Q = Stroke Volume × Heart rate
