Main outcome measurements: Competition time, beat-to-beat blood pressure by the vascular unloading technique, oscillometric blood pressure, beat-to-beat stroke volume by impedance cardiography, total ...

The intermittent longer AV intervals modulate the autonomic nervous system response (the baroreceptor reflex) and reduce afterload to sustain the blood pressure reduction,” he said.

Normally, your body has a quick response system called the baroreceptor reflex, which senses the drop in blood pressure and triggers the nervous system to increase the heart rate and tighten blood ...

Reduced baroreflex sensitivity predicted the risk for dementia linked to hypertension in older adults, beyond what traditional blood pressure measurements reveal, a new study found.

The autonomic nervous system controls adjustments to blood pressure through the baroreceptor reflex Certain illnesses or medications can compromise the functioning of the baroreceptor reflex ...

Baroreceptor reflex – coordinates changes in blood pressure Cardiac output – volume of blood (ml) pumped out of the left ventricle per minute Diastole – period in the cardiac cycle when the heart ...

Autonomic mechanisms and sudden death. New insights from analysis of baroreceptor reflexes in conscious dogs with and without a myocardial infarction. P J Schwartz ...

This ability, called the baroreceptor reflex, involves a series of quick responses within the body to keep blood pressure in a normal range when someone abruptly changes position, the Cleveland ...

Cooper VL, Pearson SB, Bowker CM, Elliott MW, Hainsworth R. Interaction of chemoreceptor and baroreceptor reflexes by hypoxia and hypercapnia — a mechanism for promoting hypertension in ...

The baroreceptor reflex--sometimes referred to simply as the baroreflex--helps maintain a steady blood pressure by changing heart rate or resistance in the blood vessels.

Exactly how the baroreceptor reflex works has been a mystery for nearly 100 years, though. “For example, when you stand up, your blood pressure normally drops – rapidly,” a statement from ...
