What is the benefit of giving inotropes to a heart failure patient?
O It increases the oxygen level in the atrial system
© Itincreases the contractility of the heart to increase the CO of
the heart
Q It prevents blood clots from forming
O It increases sympathetic nervous stimulation
, 0.67/0.67 points Multiple Choice
What happens in the body during heart failure that leads to decreased
cardiac output?
O The heart rate consistently slows down, leading to reduced blood flow.
o The heart becomes less efficient at pumping blood, due to
either weakened or stiffened heart muscle.
O The blood becomes thicker, making it harder for the heart to pump it
through the body.
O The arteries widen, resulting in lower blood pressure and reduced blood
volume.
O The ventricles contract more forcefully, ejecting excess blood with each
beat.
