Over the long-term (years), the physical changes to the heart and the reflexes may not be able to compensate for the aortic valve stenosis and the left ventricular cardiac output will decrease. This will lead to the accumulation of blood in the pulmonary circuit and in the system circuit veins. Describe what you predict would happen at the pulmonary capillaries and capillaries in the lower extremities in the systemic circuit. (Be sure to include all of the relevant variables for the capillaries and which ones are changed in this situation).
