Detailed explanation-1: -The definition of stroke volume is the volume of blood pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart during each systolic cardiac contraction.
Detailed explanation-2: -Physiology and Pathophysiology Stroke volume is the difference between end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes; it is the volume ejected with each heart beat. The normal range is 50 to 100 ml.
Detailed explanation-3: -In cardiovascular physiology, stroke volume (SV) is the volume of blood pumped from the left ventricle per beat.
Detailed explanation-4: -LVSV is the volume of blood ejected from the left ventricle (LV) during one heart contraction. LVSV may be quantified, either manually or automatically, using software, and is derived from a series of parallel short axis slices or from one or more long axis slices (using geometric assumptions).
Detailed explanation-5: -Stroke volume is the amount of blood the left ventricle pumps out in one cardiac cycle. This is around 70 ml. Now to get cardiac output we have to multiply stroke volume with the normal heart rate of 72 beats/min and we get 5, 040 ml/min. This means that in one minute, a normal heart pumps about 5 litres of blood.
