Q

Exercise and neurohormonal control

A

skeletal m. vasodilation causes decreased TPR
sympathetics cause increased HR, contractility and venoconstriction
increases arterial BP, increasing flow to muscle

Q

Intrapleural pressure and RA pressure relation with CO

A

breathing decreases intrapleural pressure, increasing RA pressure
cardiac output increases with more negative intrapleural pressure (due to increased RA pressure)
