There are three factors that increase peripheral resistance. These factors include autonomic activity, pharmacologic agents, and blood viscosity. Each factor increases the constriction of arteries, which in turn causes peripheral resistance.

∙ 11y agoThe three factors that influence peripheral resistance are blood viscosity, blood vessel length, and blood vessel diameter. Increase in blood viscosity causes an increase in blood pressure. Increase in blood vessel length causes in increase in blood pressure. Increase in blood vessel diameter causes a decrease in blood pressure.

What factors influences resistance to blood flow in the arteries?
resistance occurs as the blood flows away from heart through the vessels in the peripheral systemic circulation a term known as peripheral resistance. Viscosity of the blood (thickness) ,vessel length (distance) and vessel diameter (blood vessel radius) are three factors
