Vagus nerve.
4. Cardiovascular Centers Function - ANSWER ✓ Use baroreceptors and
chemoreceptors to monitor pressure and O2/CO2, adjusting systems in
response.
5. Epi/NoreEpi Effects - ANSWER ✓ Increase heart rate, contractility, and
vasoconstriction.
6. RAAS Function - ANSWER ✓ Utilizes vasoconstriction and increases blood
volume.
7. ADH Function - ANSWER ✓ Causes vasoconstriction and increases water
reabsorption.
8. ANP/BNP Function - ANSWER ✓ From the heart, they cause vasodilation
and increase sodium excretion to decrease blood pressure.

15.Respiratory Alkalosis - ANSWER ✓ A condition caused by hyperventilation
leading to CO2 loss.
16.Signs/Symptoms of Respiratory Alkalosis - ANSWER ✓ Dizziness,
paresthesia, chest tightness, lightheadedness, confusion.
17.Pt. Presentation of Respiratory Alkalosis - ANSWER ✓ Rapid breathing,
anxious appearance, tingling extremities.
