Venous return is affected by several factors including muscle contraction, respiratory activity and gravity. Decreased venous compliance and vena cava compression also influence venous return. Other factors include valve competence, heartbeat, intrapericardial pressure, blood volume and degree of filling systematic circulation.
Gravity's pull on venous blood is reduced, blood volume is redistributed centrally. Compression of tissues favors fluid shift into the blood vessels, increasing plasma volume. Stretches the heart, releases ANPs. ANPs cause vasodilation, and tell kidneys to pee out Na+ and H2O.
