The left ventricular pressure-volume loopCurve 1 of 4 · Q 1/5
One cardiac cycle of a normal left ventricle, plotted as pressure against volume and traveled counterclockwise (end-diastolic volume 120 mL, end-systolic volume 50 mL). The dashed line is the end-systolic pressure-volume relationship.

What is happening in the ventricle between point A and point B?
