This means understanding mechanisms from molecular to whole animal levels. Such knowledge allows science to be quickly transferred from the laboratory bench to the hospital bed (translational physiology). Regulation of circulating blood volume is one such topic.Hemorrhagic shock such as occurs in combat or in automobile accidents reduces the circulating volume of blood and causes hypovolemic hypotension. This has far-reaching consequences for the body and survival. It also exemplifies how multiple organs and systems respond in a coordinated fashion when the physiological homeostasis of the cardiovascular}, bookauthor = {GARY F.
