    SV is intrinsically controlled by preload (the degree to which the ventricles are stretched prior to contracting ). An increase in the volume or speed of venous return will increase preload, through the Frank-Starling law of the heart, will increase the stroke volume.…

    J.M also presents with an elevated blood pressure as well as Heart rate. The history indicated that HTN has been part of J.M’s past, CAD and HF are also noted, which contribute to the elevated BP. The decrease in Hematocrit and Hemoglobin will also contribute to the BP because the heart has to work harder to pump the blood to the body, and the blood is not carrying enough oxygen to deliver throughout the body. The respirations are a compensation of the elevated BP.…

    Blood pressured is measured by the end-systolic volume (the volume of blood in a ventricle at the end of contraction) and the end diastole volume (the volume of blood in the ventricle at end load or filling). The heat from the Water will also aid the body in becoming dehydrated this will cause the viscosity (the resistance of blood flow) of the blood to become higher, making it harder for it to flow through the blood stream imposing Venous return (the rate of blood flow back to the heart.) venous return normally limits Cardiac output (the amount of blood pumped out of a ventricle per beat). Cardiac output is calculated as the product of stroke volume (the volume of blood pumped from one ventricle of the heart with each beat) and heart rate (the number of times the heart beats per one…

    Increases in HR, SV, active tissue vascular conductance, and vasoconstriction in the non-active tissues occurs during the transition from rest to moderate intensity exercise. Because HR and SV increase, so does cardiac output to a great extent and when combined with a small decrease in resistance to flow in some area of the body (gut, inactive tissue etc) the over result is that arterial blood pressure (MAP) will increase from rest.…
