Question:

What events can a hemorrhage lead to

Author: Lapras Fan



Answer:

Reduced blood volume lowers venous pressure so cardiac output falls Due to starling's law there is a decrease in arterial pressure as well Baroreceptors detect this which raises heart rate Heart rate increases which increases arterial pressure but not venous pressure TPR also increases which helps arterial pressure but not venous pressure So it does not solve the problem --> oedema etc.
