A member asked:
What is the impact of tachycardia on diastolic filling?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tachycardia: As heart rate increases the time for diastolic filling decreases. Very rapid tachycardias may have such shortened diastolic filling times that stroke volume falls causing lowered blood pressure and even cardiac output.
