Double Pump and System of blood vessels:
• Arteries
• Capillaries
• Veins

Heart Rate/Stroke Volume
• Heart Rate = Pulse rate as arteries pulse every time the heart contracts.
• “Normal” average heart rate = 60-100bpm although can be 30-40 bpm in athletes
• Stroke Volume = volume of blood pumped out of the heart with each beat (70-150ml).

Cardiac Output
• Volume of blood pumped by each ventricle per minute
• Function of heart rate and stroke volume (ie. CO=HR x SV)
• Average 5ltrs per min
• Depends on physical fitness

Blood Pressure
• Force exerted by blood against wall of blood vessel
• Highest in arteries
• Read using a sphymomanometer
• Systolic BP/Diastolic BP (120/70 normal)
