The Frank–Starling law of the heart represents the relationship between stroke volume and end diastolic volume.

As a larger volume of blood flows into the ventricle, the blood stretches cardiac muscle, leading to an increase in the force of contraction. The Frank-Starling mechanism allows the cardiac output t
