Answer:

Positive inotropic effect means that it increases the contraction force of the heart, reducing the intracellular calcium level of the myocardium.

Explanation:

    Inotropism is a health science term to refer to the contraction capacity of the cardiac (myocardial) muscles. Inotropic action influences contractile force, velocity of  myocardial pressure development and ejection velocity.

  • Negative inotropic effect means contraction force decreases or decreases cardiac output
  • Positive inotropic effect means that it increases the contraction force of the heart, reducing the intracellular calcium level of the myocardium.

Positive chronotropic action increases

  • heart rate - tachycardia;
  • cardiac contraction force, both  atrio and ventricles);
  • conduction velocity in the atrioventricular node.

How does stomach acid prevent infections
ziro4ka [17]
The secretion of hydrochloric acid by the stomach plays an important role in protecting the body against pathogens ingested with food or water. A gastric fluid pH of 1 to 2 is deleterious to many microbial pathogens; however, the neutralization of gastric acid by antacids or the inhibition of acid secretion by various drugs may increase the risk of food- or waterborne illnesses. Peptic ulcer disease is often treated by decreasing or eliminating gastric acid secretion, and such treatment blocks the protective antibacterial action of gastric fluid.
