Reply to comment by IFNy in considering the stomach is highly vascular, does the use of blood thinners and/or beta blockers affect digestion? by Livid-Rutabaga
Not to be pedantic but if someone is take a beta blocker for atrial fibrillation it will increase cardiac output despite the reduction in heart rate. Actually most people who take a beta blocker probably have an increase in CO due to higher stroke volume. Only for those who take it for sinus tachycardia would have a deceased in CO.

No CO = SV x HR. EF = (SV/EDV)/100. Please tell me more about how CHF patients take beta blockers to decrease the CO though /s
