PRECHARGE [8 records]

Record 1 2017-03-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Cardiovascular System
  • The Heart
CONT

Dilating the post-capillary vessels, including large veins, promotes a peripheral pooling of blood and decreases venous return to the heart. This reduces left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (pre-load).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Système cardio-vasculaire
  • Cœur
CONT

La dilatation des vaisseaux post-capillaires y compris les veines de gros calibre, favorise l'accumulation de sang dans la circulation périphérique et réduit le retour veineux au cœur, ce qui a pour effet de réduire la pression télédiastolique ventriculaire gauche (précharge).
