Question: 1 / 400

Mean arterial pressure (MAP) is a product of:

cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance

Mean arterial pressure is the average blood pressure in a person's arteries during a single cardiac cycle. It is determined by the product of cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately include both components of MAP. While heart rate and stroke volume may contribute to blood pressure, they do not fully reflect the overall pressure in the arteries. Additionally, heart rate and systemic vascular resistance, as well as stroke volume and systemic vascular resistance, only include two out of the three factors that determine MAP and therefore are not accurate products.
