Question:

Why is the DBP decreased in aortic regurgitation?

Author: Celeste Camarines 3sgo



Answer:

Incomplete closing of the aortic valve, the blood that has just been pumped into the aorta flows immediately backward into the left ventricle -> the pressure in the aorta will decrease -> the DBP will also decrease
