The process by which the presence of epinephrine or norepinephrine in the bloodstream activates, maintains or increases the rate of heart contraction. The process by which the secretion of epinephrine into the bloodstream or released from nerve endings increases the rate of heart muscle contraction. The multicellular organismal process by which the heart decreases in volume in a characteristic way to propel blood through the body. The process by which the secretion of norepinephrine into the bloodstream or released from nerve endings increases the rate of heart muscle contraction. Any process that modulates the frequency or rate of heart contraction. Any process that activates, maintains or increases the frequency, rate or extent of heart contraction as a result of the baroreceptor response to decreased blood pressure. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of an organismal process, any of the processes pertinent to the function of an organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of heart contraction. Heart contraction is the process by which the heart decreases in volume in a characteristic way to propel blood through the body. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a biological quality. A biological quality is a measurable attribute of an organism or part of an organism, such as size, mass, shape, color, etc. Any process that activates or increases the frequency or rate of heart contraction. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of heart contraction.
