Colleen,
I just had an exam on the heart and blood last night! I'm not sure if this will help for you, but my last name starts with Dia. I think, am I cool, or what? I'm relaxed. Diastole. I also think...systole...sit up straight!! It kind of of rhymes.
Sorry, that's the best I could come up with! lol

Sis (SYStole).......for contractions......like labor contractions...females have labor contractions, SIS is a female.
DR (Diastole=Relaxation).....Dr's are usually relaxed because it's the nurses running around doing all of the work for them.
Love it!!!!

OK,
I can remember and understand a lot of things, however, the definition of Sistole (contraction) and Diastole (relaxation) of the heart will be the baine of A&PII Circlulatory System studying.
Does anyone have a mneumonic or catchy phrase to easily remember that Sistole is contraction and Diastole is relaxation?
Thanks for your ideas,
Col
