Best Answer

By venodilating a vein, you are increasing the compliance of vein (which is the amount or degree by which a vessel can be streched). Since you increase compliance, one can store more blood resulting in pooling of more blood in veins, which will eventually result in less venous return resulting in decrease in preload.

Does stroke volume start with increased or decreased preload?

Stroke volume typically increases in response to increased preload, which is the volume of blood filling the heart during diastole. This increased preload stretches the heart muscle, leading to a more forceful contraction and higher stroke volume.
