By a study of known processes we may approach the problem of primary hypertension.A. MECHANISMS CONCERNED IN THE REGULATION OF THE BLOOD PRESSURE.1.The heart. The energy required to maintain or elevate the systemic blood pressure is furnished by the contraction of the left ventricle. When the peripheral resistance is increased the blood pressure must be raised, if the tissues are to receive as much blood as they did before the increase of resistance occurred. When the tissues require more blood,... This content is PDF only. To continue reading please click on the PDF icon.
