What is normal velocity of blood as measured in echo test?
Your blood moves through the Aorta at an average speed of 30 cm/sec, and makes the circuit of the vascular system in about 60 seconds. With regard to your blood when it is in the heart itself; the total time it takes for the cardiac cycle to begin and end is approximately 0.85 sec. For an adult with a heart rate of 72 b/p/m, the heart forces approx. 5 cu. in of blood (82 ml) out into the body amounting to 500,000 cu in (8193 L) a day. For completeness sake: the heart, at 72 b/p/m/, beats 104,000x/day, 38,000,000 x a year and if you live to be 72 (averaging out the quicker and slower speeds of the heart during your younger years to your older years) your heart will have beat approximately 2.736 x 10*9 total beats. That is quite impressive. Yeah God!!! With regard to your specific concern, it is very difficult to determine what you are getting at because that speed is so dependent on many variables. Your conduction system needs to be in working order and that is: as the conduction procee
