corrolation between heart rate and BP?
| Never heard of one from an offical source. However one would think speeding the pump up would increase pressure. That is untill the fluid begins to cavitate which is the limiting factor for every pump. This would seem to be apparent if it be a mechanical or organic pump. The difference between a machanical and organic system. Would be the capability of an organic system to expand the diameter of it's pipes which in turn would check the increase in pressure. The problem we face is the build up plaque over time which inhibits the expansionability of our veins and arteries. Maybe one of our more medically attuned members could give us futher insite.
