It will absolutely raise your blood pressure because sodium constricts veins & vessels your heart needs to use more pressure to force blood flow.

How would Hypothalamic tumor resulting in excess ADH production has what effect on the blood pressure?

The increased ADH (vasopressin) would cause water retention and increased volume of body fluids. This would make the heart work harder to pump the increased volume through the body resulting in higher blood pressure.


Does arteriole blood pressure increase in response to increased heart rate?

Blood pressure.


What is the typical change in blood pressure with increased intracranial pressure?

inreasing pressure


The function of angiotensin II is to?

1. constrict arterioles thus increase blood pressure, 2. stimulate ADH secretion from the anterior pituitary which increases water retention by the kidneys and also increases blood pressure, and 3. stimulate aldosterone secretion from the adrenal cortex which increases sodium retention in the kidneys leading to more water retention by the kidneys and helping to increase blood pressure too.


Anticipated effect on blood pressure and the physiological basis of the response to high-salt diet?

Increased blood pressure. This is due to increased sodium in the blood, increasing the total extracellular fluid volume


Can creatine cause side effects?

A slight weight gain due to water retention is probably the most common side effect. Nausea , cramping, dehydration, diarrhea , and increased blood pressure have also been reported.


What causes vasopressin increase?

yea,by retention water ,it increase blood volume,which ultimately increase blood pressure..

Increased blood glucose, decreased GI peristalsis, and increased heart rate and blood pressure.


Increased blood pressure would decrease the amount of fluid leaving the capillaries?

False, would increase the amount of fluid leaving the capillaries.


How would increased red blood cell production affect blood viscosity and what problems would this cause for someone with high blood pressure?

Increased increased red cell production (polycythaemia) makes blood 'thicker' and increases the tendency to clot. The main worry for someone with High Blood Pressure is that they are already at risk of heart disease and stroke so with the increased blood viscosity the risk is even higher. The type/cause of the polycythaemia is also relevant - high blood pressure itself can cause increased blood viscosity, or the cause could be genetic or some other underlying illness (eg chronic lung disease). Either way, it is important to manage the increased red blood cell situation and the hypertension swiftly. It is also important to give up smoking and lose weight.


Rapid increase of organic acid in the body?

Rapid increase of organic acids in the body you would expect to observe the increase in your heart rate. You would also observe increased alveolar ventilation, decreased blood pH and increased in blood pressure.
