pressure gradient , gravity , skeletal muscle pump, thoracic pump and cardiac suction would be the mechanisms for venous return.
Valves aid in venous return by preventing the back flow of blood.
No, lift legs for venous return. Make sure legs are above heart. You do this for shock or bleeding.
increase venous return
advantages of quick return mechanism
because the endothoracic pressure is decreased and the venous return to the heart is increased.
Return blood, most likely, refers to the venous blood that is returned to the heart.
wht?
contractility
SV = EDV - ESV Therefore, stroke volume is greatest when venous return is increased. By 1st year paramedic science student.
venous insufficiency
Respiratory Pump mechanism- pressure changes occur in the thoracic and abdominal cavities during inspiration and expiration. This compresses veins and assists blood return to the heart.The muscle pump mechanism- muscular contractions compress the veins, squeezing blood back towards the heart. Pocket valves inside the veins prevent the back-flow of blood returning to the heart.
Whitworth quick return mechanism is a device where reciprocation motion in forward stroke is slower then the return stroke.
