Question
Chapter 19.6, Problem 30BYGO
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The Frank-Starling law’s principle and its mechanism or preventing pulmonary or systemic congestion in general.
Introduction:
Preload is one of the variables that affect the cardiac output and thereby the stroke volume. It is the tension or stretch experienced by the myocardium just before contraction starts. When the heart is filled with blood, there is tension. It is referred to as preload.
