Summary Introduction
To review:
The systemic vascular resistance (SVR) and the factors that contribute to SVR.
Introduction:
The vascular resistance is defined as the opposition to the flow of blood, which is because of the friction that develops between the blood and the blood vessel wall. The increase in vascular resistance decreases the blood flow.
