Can left atrial enlargement be reversed?
Yes
Hypertrophy is defined as?
Hypertrophy is the enlargement of cells, resulting in the enlargement of the organ or tissue to which the cells belong. The left ventricle of the heart is especially vulnerable to hypertrophy.

What causes Left atrial enlargement?
Left atrial enlargement is a not uncommon condition in adults. It means the left atrium of the heart (which holds blood before it goes into the left ventricle) is enlarged. This can happen for a number of reasons. Lung or heart disease are probably the most common reasons, but problems with the mitral valve can also result in left atrial enlargement - either a stiff valve that does not open well, or a "leaky" valve through which blood can go backwards in the heart.
What are the dangers of arterial hypertension?
The danger of arterial hypertension is high blood pressure in the lungs. It can worsen over time and become life-threatening because of the pressure in the pulmonary arteries rising to a dangerously high levels and puts a strain on the heart.
Is the left ventricular wall a site of arterial baroreceptor?
The baroreceptors are located in carotid sinus. They are not located in your left or right ventricles.
How do venous pressures compare to arterial pressures?
Much lower... because arterial walls get their pressure via force of the left ventricle pumping into the arteries. Veins are not exposed to such force and get their pressure via muscle pumps.Much lower... because arterial walls get their pressure via force of the left ventricle pumping into the arteries.

The main trunk of the arterial system that begins from left ventricle of the heart is the?
The main trunk of the arterial system that begins from the left ventricle of the heart is the aorta. The aorta is the largest and primary artery in the body, responsible for carrying oxygen-rich blood to all parts of the body.
In which type of bleeding is blood less likely to clot?
An arterial bleed, because the blood is flowing at a high rate of speed/pressure.
What is an arterial PO?
Arterial PCO2 is the mean arterial pressure 20 to 26mmhg.
