“…In addition, some studies suggest that the cardiovascular responses are induced to some extent by apnea and arterial chemoreflex with a primary hypertensive and bradycardic reflex response to SLN input, a baroreflex bradycardia secondary to the reflex increase in BP, and a chemoreflex bradycardia secondary to reflex apnea. Termination of the bradycardia secondary to apnea would depend on resumption of breathing movements or, more specifically, to lung inflation [1,6,8,12,13,33] . As indicated previously, we did not observe the full range of responses frequently described as part of the LCR, such as apnea and arousal.…”
