Q

^ contractility (&SV)

A
Big picture
    1. ^intracellular Ca
    2. ^ sarcomere length
-Catecholamines
    Inhibit phospholamban --> ^Ca into SR 
-^intracellular Ca
-Decrease extracellular Na
    (decrease Na/Ca exchanger)
-Digitalis
    blocks Na/K pump --> ^ intracellular Na --> stops Na/Ca exchanger (too much Na to bring in more) --> ^ intracellular Ca
