Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

1) Heart failure can lead to hypotension due to the inability of the heart to pump enough blood to maintain blood pressure. 
2) Hypovolemia or low blood volume can cause hypotension as there is not enough blood to fill the vessels and maintain blood pressure. 
3) Mild tachycardia or a slightly increased heart rate may not necessarily cause hypotension. 
4) Peripheral vasoconstriction, or narrowing of blood vessels, can increase blood pressure and is not a cause of hypotension.
