Cardiac output is defined by the equation HR (heart rate) x SV (stroke volume). Anything that increases either of these will increase the cardiac output. Increasing heart rate: exercise, anxiety, caffeine, amphetamines, cocaine, other medications Increasing stroke volume: certain medications (digoxin, etc), lower heart rates
What else can I help you with?
What hormone increases heart rate and forces contraction?
Epinephrine
What is the difference between inotropic and cronotropic?
Inotropic refers to the force of contraction of the heart muscle, while chronotropic refers to the heart rate. Inotropic agents affect the strength of the heart's contractions, while chronotropic agents affect the heart rate.
What hormone dilates bronchioles increases heart rate?
There is not an actual hormone which increases blood pressure. However, the hormone adrenaline is secreted by the pituitary gland and has the effect of speeding up the contraction of the heart muscle. In turn this leads to increased blood pressure due to Fick's Law. The stroke volume of the heart has increased so more blood is being forced through the network of blood vessels
Increased return of the blood to the heart stretche's the muscle which does what?
increases the heart rate. ---- Increases the force of contraction, and therefore, the amount of blood pumped out at a time. Think of a rubber band...the more you stretch it, the harder it contracts when you let go.
A hormone that increases your heart rate in time of danger?
adrenaline
What term increases heart rate and contraction strength?
The term that increases heart rate and contraction strength is "sympathetic stimulation." This occurs when the sympathetic nervous system is activated, releasing hormones like adrenaline (epinephrine) that enhance cardiac output by increasing both the heart rate and the force of heart muscle contractions. This response is part of the body's "fight or flight" mechanism, preparing it for immediate physical activity.
What desired effect does digitalis produce?
Digitalis is made from Foxglove. It can be used to treat certain heart conditions. It slows your heart to a steady beat.
What is the hormone that is released by the heart when the fluid volume increases?
atrial natiuretic
What does stretching a myocardial cell cause the cell to do?
Stretching a myocardial cell allows more Ca+2 into the cell and increases the force of contraction (the longer the muscle fiber when it begins to contract, the greater the force of contraction).
Name of the law pertaining to the force of heart contraction?
Cardio
What hormone increases heartbeat?
nonsense i dint know the answer
How body reacts when adrenaline hormone is secreted in the blood?
Too much of a certain hormone in the body is not really good for the body as it is very harmful. It gets to your head longterm; nervous one day, aggressive the next and unpredictable overall. You can wreck your circadian rhythm, have a panic attack, a nervous breakdown-everything goes haywire-might snap on your friends if you don't seek medical attn.
