Select from the dropdown lists to complete the text.

Factors Affecting Pulse Pressure:
Increase in stroke volume ( decreases, increases ) pulse pressure. Conversely, decreases in stroke volume ( decrease, increase ) pulse pressure.

Decreases in arterial compliance ( decrease, increase ) pulse pressure. Increases in compliance ( decrease, increase ) pulse pressure.

Explanation

Question 12 of 19

1

Which of the following describes how arteriosclerosis affects pulse pressure?

Select one of the following:

Pulse pressure is increased to nearly twice normal
Pulse pressure is significantly decreased
Diastolic pressure falls very low before the next heartbeat
Aortic pressure can fall all the way to zero between heartbeats.

Explanation

Question 13 of 19

1

Match the following abnormal pressure pulse contours to their definitions:

❌ Decreases compliance of arterial tree, thus leading to increase in pulse pressure.

❌ Associated with low diastolic pressure and high systolic pressure, net result is very high pressure.

❌ Condition associated with backward flow of blood through the aortic valve. Low diastolic and high systolic pressure leads to high pulse pressure.
