Frequency components of systolic blood pressure variability reflect vasomotor and cardiac sympathetic functions in conscious rats

Abstract: In this study, after confirming the suppression of autonomic nervous function by isoflurane anesthesia using autonomic antagonists, we pharmacologically investigated the involvement of vasomotor and cardiac sympathetic functions in systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV) frequency components in conscious rats at rest and during exposure to low-ambient temperature (LT-exposure, 9°C for 90 min). Under unanesthesia, phentolamine administration (α-adrenoceptor antagonist, 10 mg/kg) decreased the mid-frequency c… Show more

“…Evidence that LF‐BPV is an index of vascular sympathetic activity is more limited. In rats, phentolamine decreased midfrequency blood pressure variability, consistent with the hypothesis that it reflects α‐adrenergic‐mediated vasomotor function (Yoshimoto et al., ). Other blockade studies also support this view (Julien, Malpas, & Stauss, ; Stauss & Kregel, ; Stauss, Persson, Johnson, & Kregel, ; Zhang et al., ).…”

“…Cardiovascular autonomic function is acutely challenged in the perioperative setting (Vinik and Ziegler 2007;Oakley and Emond 2011) by both anesthesia and surgical intervention. For instance, anesthesia is well known to lower blood pressure and heart rate (HR) (Altholtz et al 2006), and to impair baroreflex responsiveness (Yoshimoto et al 2011). In contrast, surgical interventions are known to increase blood pressure and HR (Abraham et al 1981;Gemes et al 2009;Charlet et al 2011;Yeh et al 2012).…”
