Does the stimulation of the adrenal medulla increase or decrease blood pressure?
increases blood pressure
What does not decrease the blood pressure?
Sugar. That helps to increase it. Not eating anything but healthy foods might decrease blood pressure by a bit.
Does hemorrhage increase blood pressure?
the question is not sufficiently specified to enable a good answer in a short essay. There are many kinds and degrees of "Hemorrhage" No. A hemorrhage causes a loss in blood/plasma, and that will decrease the hydrostatic pressure of the vessels --> decrease blood pressure.
Does arteriorsclerosis increase or decrease blood pressure?
Arteriosclerosis increases blood pressure due to a reduction of compliance in the arterial tree.
How is blood pressure affected when you increase dilation?
Blood pressure drops as dilation increases. This occurs because of decrease resistance.
How would relaxing the smooth muscles in arteries affect blood pressure?
Blood pressure would decrease
What is the effect of a fluid bolus on blood pressure and heart rate?
It will increase blood pressure by increasing volume. This will have a negate chromotropic effect and decrease HR.
Does heat affect blood pressure?
Increases in body temperature cause a corresponding increase in respiratory rate and heart rate because there is an increase in metabolic needs of the body. As regards blood Pressure, I believe the blood pressure goes down as a result of an Increase in body temperature. The body generates a lot of heat that decreases body hydration level and a result the body becomes dehydrated and the BP decreases. Increase with fever, necessitating more oxygen. The client who has a decrease in body temperature will experience a decrease in respiratory rate, Heart rate and Blood pressure.
When there is increased resistance then arteriolar constriction and pressure drops?
Resistance changes dramatically with changes in diameter of blood vessels (arterioles are one type of blood vessel). If you INCREASE the diameter of the arteriole, you DECREASE the resistance and thus DECREASE the blood pressure.
Why does a decrease in the amount of sodium in the distal convoluted tubule lead to an increase in blood pressure?
Because this leads to an increase in renin production
Was the blood pressure gets increase or decrease or fluctuate or remains constant while a man was sleeping?
fluctuates
What is the job of the smooth muscle in the artery walls?
To contract or dilate in order to increase/decrease blood pressure (and obviously blood supply)
