How do blood levels affect cardiac output?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Levels = volumes?: Blood levels meaning blood volumes? Cardiac output is the volume of blood being pumped by the heart per minute. It is calculated by stroke volume x heart rate. Stroke volume is the volume of blood pumped from one ventricle of the heart with each beat.

More = more: Starling's law of the heart says that the more full the heart is, the more volume it will pump. (ie more cardiac output). There are limits though, of course.
