What vessels provides right and left ventricular afterload?

The systemic arteries provide afterload for the left ventricle, while the pulmonary arteries provide afterload for the right ventricle. Afterload refers to the resistance that the ventricles must overcome to eject blood during systole.


Which lung has the cardiac notch?

left lung has a cardiac notch.


What would be the physiological consequence of the right and left ventricles of the heart not pumping the same volume of blood?

Beat by beat they never do ... but if an unbalance occurs over a long period of time (and less than a minute is long here) then you have cardiac failure [either right or left]. Either one is fatal. Left sided failure is many times more common than right sided, but either can kill.


What does it mean when a cardiac silhouette is at the upper limit of normal?

What is a function of the cardiac notch?

Can you drive left sided vehicles in Australia?

You may drive left sided vehicles. You may not drive them on the right hand side of the road.


Effect of increased vasoconstriction on afterload?

Increased vasoconstriction leads to an increase in afterload, which is the resistance the heart must overcome to eject blood from the left ventricle. As a result, the heart has to work harder to pump blood against the increased resistance, which can lead to increased myocardial oxygen demand and potentially contribute to the development of heart failure over time.
