Sodium nitroprusside is used in emergency to reduce the very high blood pressure. The drug dilates the arterial as well as venous system. So you get tachycardia and cardiac out put increases probably.

Does cardiac output affect urine output?
Certainly. Decrease cardiac output would mean a decreased in blood flow to the kidneys, which would lead to reduced filtration, therefore urine output.
How does positive-pressure ventilation affect cardiac output?
It increases intrathoracic pressure which decreases venous return to the heart and causes a decrease in cardiac output.
How does positive pressure ventilation affect cardiac output?
It increases intrathoracic pressure which decreases venous return to the heart and causes a decrease in cardiac output.
How does tachycardia affect stroke volume and cardiac output?
Lowers stroke volume
How would a decrease in blood volume affect both stroke volume and cardiac output?
It's decreased ... unless the rate falls, which is the normal cardiac response.
Amount of blood pumped by the heart in 1 min?
cardiac output :)
Determined by heart rate x stroke volume?
cardiac output
If resting cardiac output is six liters and maximum exercise cardiac output is sixteen liters what is the cardiac reserve?
10 liters
What compensations does the body have to do to defend cardiac output if you hemorrhage?
what compensations does the body have to do to defend cardiac output
Which statement is correct about cardiac output?
cardiac output is heart rate multiplied by stroke volume,
How much blood returns to the heart?
cardiac output
How is cardiac output measured?
Cardiac output is measured by techniques such as the Fick Pickle and Dilution methods. Other methods of measuring Cardiac output include Doppler ultrasound and Echocardiography.
