Introduction to BP. 
Blood pressure is defined as the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the arteries. 
Write the equation for blood pressure here: 
BP = CO x SVR 
Cardiac output (CO) is defined as the total blood flow through the systemic or pulmonary 
circulation per minute. 
Write the equation for CO here: 
CO = SV x HR 
 Stroke volume is approximately 70mL/min 
True or False: A HR of 50bpm would lead to a lower CO than a HR of 80bpm 
Stroke volume is determined by: 
1. Contra...
