Determinants of cardiac output and blood pressure
CO = SV x HR; BP = CO x TPR
Predicts haemodynamic response to drugs, bleeding or sepsis.
It does not break SV into preload, contractility and afterload.

CO = SV x HR; BP = CO x TPR. It helps you recall: Determinants of cardiac output and blood pressure.
Cardiac output
Stroke volume
Heart rate
CO: Cardiac output; SV: Stroke volume; HR: Heart rate; BP: Blood pressure; TPR: Total peripheral resistance.
It belongs to Cardiovascular system in Physiology.
It does not break SV into preload, contractility and afterload.
Predicts haemodynamic response to drugs, bleeding or sepsis.
Say it aloud, write it from memory tomorrow, then again in a week. Then test yourself on a Physiology question about Cardiovascular system.
