Cardiomyopathy is a disease where the actual heart muscle (myocardium) becomes weak and unable to contract with sufficient force (decreased contractility leading to
a decreased stroke volume) to provide adequate perfusion (reduced cardiac output) for the cells of the body.
Not exact matches
Consistently, MYCL increased in diabetic women, whereas
stroke volume decreased and heart rate increased; this was already initiated in insulin - resistant nondiabetic women (227).
It has a higher
stroke volume so it can push out more blood per pump and that obviously will have a — an effect of
decreasing the blood pressure and then also growth hormone and / or just exercise will increase nitric oxide.
Since the amount of blood pumped by the heart per minute (cardiac output) is the product of the amount of blood ejected per contraction (
stroke volume) and the heart rate in beats per minute, this
decreased chamber
volume (and subsequent
stroke volume) results in an increased heart rate (tachycardia) as a reflex mechanism to maintain cardiac output and blood pressure.
