Increased BP & decreased hea rate is seen in
High-Yield Explanation
Cushings reflex is a special type of CNS ischemic response. The cause is raised intracranial tension. When blood flow to the VMC is decreased., it suffers from ischemia. The VMC is stimulated leading to vasoconstriction and increase in BP. There is simultaneous stimulation of cardioinhibitory center by sinoaoic reflex mechanism. ie REFLEX hypeension is associated with bradycardia.
