ventricular systole

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
systole /sys·to·le/ (sis´to-le) the contraction, or period of contraction, of the heart, especially of the ventricles.systol´ic
aborted systole  a weak systole, usually premature, not associated with pulsation of a peripheral artery.
atrial systole  the contraction of the atria by which blood is propelled from them into the ventricles.
extra systole  extrasystole.
ventricular systole  the contraction of the cardiac ventricles by which blood is forced into the aorta and pulmonary artery.

ventricular systole
Etymology: L, ventriculus + Gk, systole, contraction
the contraction of the heart ventricles. It begins with the first heart sound.

systole [sis´to-le]
the contraction, or period of contraction, of the heart, especially of the ventricles, during which blood is forced into the aorta and pulmonary artery. adj., adj systol´ic.
atrial systole contraction of the atria by which blood is forced into the ventricles; it precedes the true or ventricular systole and is indicated by the fourth heart sound.
extra systole see extrasystole.
ventricular systole contraction of the ventricles, forcing blood into the aorta and pulmonary artery.

Maximal TAPSE was determined by the total excursion of the tricuspid annulus from its highest position after atrial ascent to the peak descent during ventricular systole.
In normal relaxation, the left atrial pressure decline during ventricular systole drives flow into the left atrium (peak systolic pulmonary vein velocity, S wave).
