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.
Certainly. Decrease cardiac output would mean a decreased in blood flow to the kidneys, which would lead to reduced filtration, therefore urine output.
It increases intrathoracic pressure which decreases venous return to the heart and causes a decrease in cardiac output.

Lowers stroke volume
It's decreased ... unless the rate falls, which is the normal cardiac response.
cardiac output :)
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.

cardiac output
cardiac output is heart rate multiplied by stroke volume,
its not cardiac rest, its cardiac ARREST. which is a heart attack.
