Learning the cardiac cycle is essential to preforming well in nursing school and in working as a professional nurse.  Below are a few links to help learn the cardiac cycle.  There are some animations on the cardiac cycle.

Below is a link to the best series of videos that I have found.  It is by a professor named Dr. Najeeb and he uses them in his USMLE prep course.  Search through his youtube page to find many other helpful videos.  This series of 8 videos on the cardiac cycle should leave you with a very complete understanding.  He provides his own animations of the cardiac cycle.
