This, in turn, leads to a short-term decrease in blood pressure, facilitating pre- and post-loading on the myocardium, reducing the need for myocardium in oxygen. Due to the dilatation (expansion) of the capillaries, the oxygen supply and blood supply to the myocardium is improved, it is also possible to reflex acceleration of the heart rhythm.
