Case
A 70-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with shortness of breath, severe fatigue and weakness, abdominal distension, and swelling of ankles. At night he requires four pillows and often wakes up because of acute air hunger. His history revealed episodes of angina pectoris and a progressive shortness of breath with exertion for several years. On examination the chief abnormalities were slight cyanosis (bluish cast to the skin), distension of the neck veins, rapid respirations (20/min), rales (crackling sounds) at the lung bases bilaterally, an enlarged heart with slight tachycardia (110 beats/min) and a diastolic gallop rhythm (sounds like galloping horse), enlarged liver, excess fluid in the abdomen, and edema at the ankles and over the lower tibias. His blood pressure was 115/80. The chest x-ray examination showed an enlarged heart and diffuse density (indicative of fluid in the lungs) at both lung bases. An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed normal sinus rhythm, Q waves, and left axis deviation. Treatment included bed rest and administration of digitalis and a diuretic.

The mechanism that couples excitation – an
action potential in the plasma membrane of
the muscle cell – and contraction of heart
muscle
Excitation-Contraction CouplingIn Cardiac Muscle 兴奋 -收缩偶联

Passage of an action potential along the transverse tubule opens nearby voltage-gated calcium channels, the “ryanodine receptor,” located on the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and
calcium ions released into the cytosol bind to troponin. The calcium-troponin complex “pulls” tropomyosin off the myosin-binding site of actin, thus allowing the binding of the cross-bridge, followed by its flexing to slide the actin filament.

Calcium ions regulate thecontraction of cardiac muscle:
the entry of extracellular calcium ions causes the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (calcium-induced calcium release [钙诱导的钙释放 ]), the source of about 95% of the calcium in the cytosol.

To increase the heart’s stroke volume:
fill it more fully with blood. The increased stretch of the ventricle will align its actin and myosin in a more optimal pattern of overlap.

Ernest Starling
• Ernest Henry Starling (17 April 1866 – 2 May 1927) was an English physiologist. He worked mainly at University College London, although he also worked for many years in Germany and France. His main collaborator in London was his brother-in-law, Sir William Maddock Bayliss.
• Starling is most famous for developing the "Frank–Starling law of the heart", presented in 1915 and modified in 1919. He is also known for his involvement along with Bayliss in the Brown Dog affair, a controversy relating to vivisection. In 1891, when he was 25, Starling married Florence Amelia Wooldridge, the widow of Leonard Charles Wooldridge, who had been his physiology teacher at Guy's and died at the age of 32. She was a great support to Starling as a sounding board, secretary, and manager of his affairs as well as mother of their four children.
• Other major contributions to physiology were:
– The Starling equation, describing fluid shifts in the body (1896)
– The discovery of peristalsis, with Bayliss
– The discovery of secretin, the first hormone, with Bayliss (1902) and the introduction of the concept of hormones (1905)
– The discovery that the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney reabsorbs water and various electrolytes
– Starling was elected fellow of the Royal Society in 1899.

Otto Frank
• Otto Frank (June 21, 1865 - November 12, 1944) was a German doctor and an important figure in the history of cardiac physiology.
• Frank's initial research was related to fat absorption. But, in his postdoctoral work (Habilitationsschrift) Frank investigated the isometric and isotonic contractile behaviour of the heart and it is this work that he is best known for. Frank's work on this topic preceded that of Ernest Starling, but both are usually credited with providing the foundations of what is termed the Frank–Starling law of the heart. This law states that "Within physiological limits, the force of contraction is directly proportional to the initial length of the muscle fiber". Frank also undertook important work into the physiological basis of the arterial pulse waveform and may have coined the term essential hypertension in 1911. His work on the Windkessel extended the original ideas of Stephen Hales and provided a sound mathematical framework for this approach. Frank also published on waves in the arterial system but his attempts to produce a theory that incorporated waves and the Windkessel are not considered to have been successful. Frank also did work on the oscillatory characteristics of the auditory apparatus of the ear and the thermodynamics of muscle. He also worked extensively on developing accurate methods to measure blood pressure and other physiological phenomena (e.g. Frank's capsule (Frank-Kapsel), optical Spiegelsphygmograph).

ABSTRACT
• In 1866 at Carl Ludwig’s Physiological Institute at Leipzig, Elias Cyon described the influence of diastolic filling of the isolated perfused frog heart on ejection volume. A study performed at the institute of the effect of filling pressure on contraction amplitude was published in 1869 by Joseph Coats, based on a recording made by Henry P. Bowditch.

Afterload has very little effect on the normal ventricleHowever, as systolic failure develops even small increases in
afterload have significant effects on compromised ventricular
systolic functionConversely, small reductions in afterload in a failing ventricle can

To further increase the stroke volume:
fill it more fully with blood
AND
deliver sympathetic signals (norepinephrine and epinephrine);
it will also relax more rapidly, allowing more time to refill.

To speed up the heart rate:
• deliver the sympathetic hormone, epinephrine, and/or
• release more sympathetic neurotransmitter (norepinephrine), and/or
• reduce release of parasympathetic neurotransmitter (acetylcholine).

To increase SV, increase:end-diastolic volume,norepinephrine delivery from sympathetic neurons, andepinephrine delivery from the adrenal medulla.
To increase HR, increase:norepinephrine delivery from
sympathetic neurons, andepinephrine
delivery from adrenal medulla
(reduce parasympathetic).
It is not possible, under normal circumstances, to increase one but not the other of these determinants of cardiac output.

Case
A 70-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with shortness of breath, severe fatigue and weakness, abdominal distension, and swelling of ankles. At night he requires four pillows and often wakes up because of acute air hunger. His history revealed episodes of angina pectoris and a progressive shortness of breath with exertion for several years. On examination the chief abnormalities were slight cyanosis (bluish cast to the skin), distension of the neck veins, rapid respirations (20/min), rales (crackling sounds) at the lung bases bilaterally, an enlarged heart with slight tachycardia (110 beats/min) and a diastolic gallop rhythm (sounds like galloping horse), enlarged liver, excess fluid in the abdomen, and edema at the ankles and over the lower tibias. His blood pressure was 115/80. The chest x-ray examination showed an enlarged heart and diffuse density (indicative of fluid in the lungs) at both lung bases. An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed normal sinus rhythm, Q waves, and left axis deviation. Treatment included bed rest and administration of digitalis and a diuretic.

Questions
1. Would you expect cardiac output and stroke volume to be normal, high, or low? Why?
2. What do the distension of the neck veins and enlargement of the liver indicate? What is the mechanism?
3. Is the efficiency of the heart altered? If so, why?
4. What do you expect to find on measurement of ejection fraction and residual volume? Explain.
