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.

How does cardiac output affect blood pressure?

Cardiac output is the amount of blood pumped by the heart in one minute. It directly affects blood pressure because an increase in cardiac output leads to higher blood pressure, while a decrease in cardiac output results in lower blood pressure. This is because the more blood the heart pumps, the more pressure is exerted on the walls of the blood vessels.
