The amount of blood that comes from the heart with each contraction is the stroke volume (SV). The stroke volume is the difference between how full it is at the start and how full it is after a contraction. The next element of stroke volume is the emptying.

In the second thought experiment, let us consider a patient with significant blood volume loss that is replenished with a series of blood transfusions. For any given hemodynamic state, measure or estimate the P ra and CO [or stroke volume, SV] simultaneously and repeatedly after each intervention. What does this mean?
