Pregunta 2
Pregunta
"Starling curves" (Ventricular function curves).
Which is which?
If Cardiac Output (CO) falls 50%, BP will also fall 50% (because BP = CO * TPR). >> Reduced baroreceptor firing >> increased sympathetic activity. This results in which of the following:
(after a while, this is useless, but of benefit immediately)

Decreased HR
Increased contractility
Decreased contractility
Selective arteriolar vasoconstriction
Selective arteriolar vasodilation
Venoconstriction
Venodilation
