Dehydration reduces stroke volume and cardiac output during exercise because of impaired cardiac filling and venous return, not left ventricular function

Abstract Dehydration accrued during intense prolonged whole‐body exercise in the heat compromises peripheral blood flow and cardiac output (Q˙). A markedly reduced stroke volume (SV) is a key feature of the dehydration‐induced cardiovascular strain, but whether the lower output of the heart is media...
