1 Regulation of Cardiovascular functions Goals: Maintain normal blood pressure (heart pump + vascular resistance + blood volume) Adaptation of blood pressure to special circumstances (redistribution) Maintains the blood flow to the heart and brain (hemorrhage) Increase blood supply to active tissues Increase or decrease heat loss from the body Robert Tigerstedt Finnisch pyhsician Per Bergman Swedish physician Robert Tigerstedt and Per Bergman: Niere und Kreislauf. Arch. Physiol. 8: , The discovery of RENIN Page 1
