Which of the following factors affect pulse pressure?
Two major factors affect the pulse pressure: (1) the stroke volume output of the hea and (2) the compliance (total distensibility) of the aerial tree. A third, less impoant factor is the character of ejection from the hea during systole. Ref: Guyton's physiology, 11th edition, page 73
