The process that modulates blood pressure by sensing the amount of stretch occurring in large arteries and responding to the input via central nervous system control. The increase in nerve impulses from baroreceptors as a result of increased pressure on an artery that results in an inhibition of sympathetic nerve impulses to peripheral blood vessels. An increase in the internal diameter of an artery, triggered by vasomotor suppression, during the chemoreceptor response to decreased blood pressure. Any process that modulates the size of blood vessels. An increase in the internal diameter of blood vessels, especially arterioles or capillaries, usually resulting in a decrease in blood pressure. The process that reduces the force with which blood travels through the systemic arterial circulatory system.
