Detailed explanation-1: -Widened pulse pressure. Bradycardia. Irregular respirations (also known as Cheyne–Stokes respirations) Hypertension, or increased blood pressure. Additional symptoms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cushings reflex leads to the clinical manifestation of Cushings triad. Cushings triad = hypertension, bradycardia, and irregular respirations (Cheyne-Stokes breathing).
Detailed explanation-3: -The Answer Late signs of intracranial pressure that comprise Cushing triad include hypertension with a widening pulse pressure, bradycardia, and abnormal respiration. The presence of those signs indicates very late signs of brain stem dysfunction and that cerebral blood flow has been significantly inhibited.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Cushing reflex is a physiological nervous system response to acute elevations of intracranial pressure (ICP), resulting in the Cushing triad of widened pulse pressure (increasing systolic, decreasing diastolic) bradycardia, and irregular respirations.
