Examples of diastole

diastole
A reduced stroke volume, as a result of a failure of systole, diastole or both.
From the en.wikipedia.org
It is during the relaxation, or diastole phase that the coronary arteries are fed.
From the sciencedaily.com
The blood-pressure synchronously falls, and the heart is arrested in diastole.
From the en.wikipedia.org
It involves timing the radiation beam to the diastole, when the heart is resting between beats.
From the cnn.com
This may contribute to the increased stiffness and decreased ability to relax during diastole.
From the en.wikipedia.org
During diastole-the period between heartbeats-the plasma membrane of pacemaker cells undergoes a slow spontaneous depolarization.
From the nature.com
Diastole is actually comprised of an active and passive expansion phases, which efficiently fill the pumping chamber with blood.
From the sciencedaily.com
She remembered the horses in the zoetrope, drawing in and throwing out their legs, over and over, in the two opposite impulses, systole and diastole.
From the guardian.co.uk
The heart did not pump blood around, the heart's motion sucked blood in during diastole and the blood moved by the pulsation of the arteries themselves.
From the en.wikipedia.org
This is made possible by a muscular ridge that subdivides the ventricle during ventricular diastole and completely divides it during ventricular systole.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Preload best describes the maximum viscous blood volume of end diastole while afterload better describes the maximum tension of the myocardial muscle mass in end systole.

  • (diastolic) of or relating to a diastole or happening during a diastole
  • Diastole is the period of time when the heart fills with blood after systole (contraction). Ballistics accurately describes diastole as recoil opposed to coil or systole. ...
  • Diastole is a genus of air-breathing land snails or semi-slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Helicarionidae.
  • (Diastolic) The bottom number on the blood pressure reading which is the usual rhythmic dilation, following each contraction (systole), during which the heart muscle relaxes and the chambers of the heart fill with blood.
  • (Diastolic) Referring to the time when the heart is in a period of relaxation and dilatation (expansion). The diastolic pressure is specifically the minimum arterial pressure during relaxation and dilatation of the ventricles of the heart when the ventricles fill with blood. ...
