Hi Farah :P whats up my old friend..i miss you dear ..by the way i mailed your 2 books yesterday sweetheart :oops: ... i ve never heard about Bainbridge reflex so far by the way :oops: but i think these would be helpful i find them from web page,i read it,learn it,and now i am posting it to you all guys 8) Synonyms: Cardiovascular reflex, right heart reflex. Increased heart rate due to an increase of the right atrial pressure. :arrow: Posted By: Robert Schier, M.D""The Bainbridge Reflex is one of the ways by which the heart keeps blood flowing properly. It is important that the amount of arterial blood being pumped out of the heart to the body equals the amount of venous returning to the heart from the body. When this does not happen -- when, for example, the left side of the heart fails because of heart disease -- the arterial output drops and blood backs up in the lungs and on the venous side of the heart. The first chamber of the heart which returning venous blood enters is the right atrium. If the inflow of venous blood increases, it will enter and distend the right atrium more. Stretch receptors in the wall of the right atrium detect this increased stretching and send signals reporting this to the brain. The brain sends instructions back to the heart causing the heart rate to increase. This increases the output of the heart and decreases the amount of blood in the right atrium. This increase in right atrial stretching (that is, increased venous return) leading to increased heart rate (that is, increased arterial output) is called the Bainbridge Reflex."" i hope this would be helpful...hopefully you are studying well Farah,goodluck :wink:

:shock: :lol: :lol: that was fine :lol: a new Q about it; in tusdata u know the book :!: :!: a sentence; ' decrease of arter pressure to 15-20mmhg makes bainbridge reflex work' right/ wrong? I thouht it was wrong because the streching of atrium makes the reflex work but the book says its true :cry: what u say my lovely friend :wink:

i agree with you and i made a further search about it ,find a q asked about this reflex by Dr. Robert W. Gore Dept. of Physiology College of Medicine,Arizona Distension of the right atrium due to increased filling will usually cause a sudden_________________in heart rate. This response is known as the ______________reflex. A.) decrease; Bainbridge B.) increase; Bainbridge C.) decrease; Venoatrial D.) increase; Venoatrial E.) None of the above Answer is shown as B :arrow: (referance is Guyton&Hall) increase in atrial filling pressure results in an increase in heart rate :!: i think in tusdata it was mistakenly writen increase as decrease you are studying profound i am happy for you dear :wink:
