Increase in Tidal volume leads to increased negative intra thoracic pressures which leads to Increased End -Diasystolic volume in Right ventricle and also Increases the EDV in the LV and thereby increasing the SBP and as reflex action of the pulmonary stretch receptors HR is also Increased.

My 2 cents not sure if the LVEDV should be increased or decreased. but i think increased due to Starling law's
