Decreased BP and Decreased hea rate
Decreased BP and Increased hea rate
Cushing reflex tends to restore the blood flow to the medulla. Over a considerable range, the blood pressure rise is propoional to the increase in intracranial pressure. The rise in blood pressure causes a reflex decrease in hea rate the aerial baroreceptors. This is why bradycardia rather than tachycardia is characteristically seen in patients with increased intracranial pressure. Ref: Ganong&;s Review of medical physiology 25th edition. Page: 593
