It explains how these structures function together to maintain cardiovascular health. Key concepts like cardiac output, stroke volume, preload, and afterload are defined, with emphasis on their roles in the heart's mechanical and physiological processes.

The period of contraction that the heart undergoes while it pumps blood into circulation is called systole. The period of relaxation that occurs as the chambers fill with blood is called diastole. Both the atria and ventricles undergo systole and diastole, and it is essential that these components be carefully regulated and coordinated.

Coronary arteries deliver oxygen-rich blood to the heart, while coronary veins carry away deoxygenated blood. This circulation is vital for the heart's continuous function and overall health, as interruptions can lead to ischemia and to heart attacks.
