Rhabdomyolysis (shortened as rhabdo) is a condition in which damaged skeletal muscle breaks down rapidly, often due to high intensity exercise over a short period. [6] [4] [5] Symptoms may include muscle pains, weakness, vomiting, and confusion.
Preload can still be approximated by the inexpensive echocardiographic measurement end-diastolic volume or EDV. Preload increases with exercise (slightly), increasing blood volume (as in edema, excessive blood transfusion (overtransfusion), polycythemia) and neuroendocrine activity (sympathetic tone). An arteriovenous fistula can increase ...
It is the normal response to healthy exercise or pregnancy, [6] which results in an increase in the heart's muscle mass and pumping ability. It is a response to 'volume-overload', either as a result of increased blood return to the heart during exercise, or a response to an actual increase in absolute blood volume as in pregnancy.
The two types of exercise are static (strength-training) and dynamic (endurance-training). Static exercise consists of weight lifting and is mostly anaerobic, meaning the body does not rely on oxygen for performance. It also moderately increases heart rate and stroke volume (oxygen debt). Dynamic exercises include running, swimming, skiing ...
A new study has found that people with type 2 diabetes who ingested ketones before exercise had increased cardiac output, stroke volume, and peripheral muscle oxygenation — all indicators of ...
In all athletic programs, three features should be present: (1) emphasizing prolonged lower-intensity exercise, as opposed to repetitive max intensity exercises; (2) adequate rest periods and a high-carbohydrate diet, to replenish glycogen stores; and (3) proper hydration, to enhance renal clearance of myoglobin.

High volume hyponatremia can occur from heart failure, liver failure, and kidney failure. [4] Conditions that can lead to falsely low sodium measurements include high blood protein levels such as in multiple myeloma, high blood fat levels, and high blood sugar. [5] [6] Treatment is based on the underlying cause. [4]
Increased blood volume in the right atrium leads to stretching of the atrial walls. This stretching is sensed by atrial stretch receptors [7] (which are located at the venoatrial junction [13]), causing an increase in the firing rate of group B nerve fibers (low pressure receptors). [1]
