[The role of vagus nerves in different changes of the right atrial pressure following intravenous injection of pressor vasoactive drugs].

In acute experiments on anesthetized cats, intravenous injection of the norepinephrine and angiotensin caused different changes of right atrial pressure in intact animals (decreasing--I group, of animals, and increasing--II group). After right and left vagus nerves had been cut, the right atrial pressure in the I group of animals decreased, but its changes were lesser than in intact animals due to slowing down of the increase of the right ventricular myocardial contractility and venous return. The latter was the result of severe diminution of the increase of the superior vena cava flow compared with the intact animals, meanwhile the value of the inferior vena cava flow did not change. In the II group animals after vagotomy and intravenous injection of the noripinephrine and angiotensin the sign of the right atrial pressure became negative, i. e. the direction of its shifts changed to the opposite, compared with intact animals. In this case, the changes of the sign of the right atrial pressure was caused by the removal of the reflectory inhibitory vagal influences on the heart, because the values of the right ventricular myocardial contractility and venous return were the same as in intact animals of the group, due to decreasing of the value of the superior vena cava flow and increasing of the shifts of the inferior vena cava flow. The vagotomy alone caused also different changes (decreasing or increasing) of right atrial pressure following increasing of the right ventricular myocardial contractility, meanwhile the changes of the venous return were insignificant. Direct electrical stimulation of both the right and the left vagus nerves caused the increasing of the right atrial pressure and decreasing of the right ventricular myocardial contractility and venous return. Thus we concluded, that different changes of the right atrial pressure in animals following intravenous injection of the pressor vasoactive drugs could be the result of different manifestations of the vagal afferent impulsation, which has influence on the sympathetic tonic discharges on the vessels of the regions of the superior and inferior vena cava, and the vagal reflectory inhibitory influences on the heart.

[Correlations between changes of the right and left atrial pressures and systemic hemodynamics parameters following catecholamines intravenous injections in cats].

In acute experiments on anesthetized cats, intravenous injection of epinephrine and norepinephrine caused different changes of right and left artrial pressures. These shifts mostly (82%) had similar directions: in these experiments, both right and left atrial pressures could be decreased (I group of animals) or increased (II group). The number of animals in these groups was equal. However, in 18% of the experiments, right atrial pressure was decreased, while left atrial pressure was increased. The changes of the left atrial pressure was, as a rule, more significant as compared with right atrial pressure shifts. In the I group of animals, systolic right atrial pressure was not changed, and systolic left atrial pressure was decreased. In the II group of animals, systolic pressure in both atria was augmented. Diastolic pressure was decreased in both atria in all the animals. When the atrial pressures were decreased, the increases of the superior and inferior vena cava flows, venous return and cardiac output were more significant as compared with animals in which the atrial pressures had been elevated. The changes of the superior and inferior vena cava flows were more obvious in animals following epinephrine injection as compared with animals in which norepinephrine was injected. The right atrial pressure returned to the initial level more rapidly than the left atrial pressure, and the time dynamics of the shifts of the right atrial pressure was similar to that of the superior vena cava flow. The temporal changes of the left atrial pressure were identical to the time changes of the cardiac output. We concluded that character of changes of the mean, systolic, and diastolic right and left atrial pressures following catecholamines injections was not correlated with the direction of venous return and cardiac output shifts, and was depending on intracardiac hemodynamics.

[Hemodynamics mechanisms of changes in the right atrial pressure following intravenous injection of the depressor drugs].

Changes of the right atrial pressure, superior and inferior vena cava flows, right ventricular myocardial contractility (first derivate of right ventricular pressure, dP/dt max) following i.v. injection of acetylcholine, histamine and isoproterenol, were studied in acute experiments on anaesthetized mongrel cats with artificial lung ventilation and opened chest. The right atrial pressure in those cases could be increased (I group of animals) or decreased (II group). In maximal shifts of right atrial pressure following acetylcholine injection, the superior vena cava flow increased but the inferior vena cava flow decreased in equal proportion. When the right ventricular myocardial contractility decreased more than the right atrial pressure was augmented, and when the cardiac negative inotropic effect was weak, the right atrial pressure was reduced. After histamine injection in both groups of animals, right ventricular myocardial contractility was increased on the same level, and changes of the inferior vena cava flow were insignificant. The right atrial pressure was elevated following greater increase of superior vena cava flow. Isoproterenol caused the positive cardiac inotropic effect and augmenting of the superior vena cava flow in both groups of animals. The right atrial pressure was elevated if the inferior vena cava flow increased and, on the other hand, when the inferior vena cava flow decreased the right atrial pressure was reduced. Thus different maximal changes of the right atrial pressure following i.v. injection of acetylcholine, histamine and isoproterenol could be explained by different hemodynamic mechanisms of the interaction between superior and inferior vena cava flow shifts and changes of the right ventricular myocardial contractility.

[Haemodynamic mechanism of the variety of changes in the right atrial pressure following catecholamines administration].

Changes of the right atrial pressure and systemic haemodynamics following action of catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine) were studied in acute experiments on anaesthetised mongrel cats with artificial lung ventilation and opened chest. Maximal changes of the right atrial pressure took place on the 12th-16th second following catecholamine administration. In that case, the atrial pressure could be decreased or increased. At the moment of maximal changes of the right atrial pressure, the venous return and the right ventricular myocardial contractility (the first derivative of the right atrial pressure, dP/dt max) increased more if the right atrial pressure decreased, as compared with the animals whose right atrial pressure augmented. The findings suggest that at the time of the maximal changes of the right atrial pressure following action of catecholamines, there may be a direct connection of the right atrial pressure with interrelation of venous return and the right ventricular contractility. The right atrial pressure, however, is a dependent parameter but it does not determine the venous return.

[Effect of negative intrathoracic pressure on venous return].

In acute experiments on cats and in observations made in human subjects, an increase of the negative intrathoracic pressure (NIP) leads to no significant changes of the venous return (VR) mean values. The peak values of the VR, however, increased and decreased more in inspiration and expiration following a deep breathing as compared with the normal breathing. The NIP seems to exert no direct effect upon the VR.

[The constant level of the right atrial pressure and its role in the venous return characteristics].

Dynamics of the central venous pressure, superior and inferior v. cava flow and venous return following action of pressor stimuli were studied in acute experiments on anaesthetised mongrel cats with artificial lung ventilation and opened chest. The central venous pressure returned to the initial level faster as compared with the dynamics of superior and inferior v. cava flow and venous return. The superior v. cava blood flow increased more than that of inferior v. cava. The data suggest that the central venous pressure is controlled near the lower constant level.

[Changes in resistance and capacitance functions of skeletal muscle vessels during the amplitude-frequency modulation of the perfusion blood flow].

Changes of venous outflow, pre- and postcapillary resistance of the skeletal muscle vessels were found to depend on values of amplitude and frequency of the perfusion blood flow in cats. Three types of the responses were distinguished: either increase, or decrease, or absence of them. The findings suggest a possibility to affect haemodynamic parameters with the aid of amplitude-frequency deviations in the organ blood flow.

[The effect of amplitude and frequency of pulse oscillations of blood flow on resistive and metabolic function of skeletal muscle vessels in cats].

The amplitude-frequency characteristics of the perfusion pressure, capillary hydrostatic pressure and the capillary filtration coefficient were nonlinear in acute experiments on cats. The shifts of the perfusion pressure and the capillary filtration coefficient could either increase or decrease depending on the range of the values of the amplitude and frequency of pulsing blood flow. The mean capillary hydrostatic pressure was also altering only in certain combinations of the pulsation amplitude and frequency. The maximal shifts of the hemodynamic parameters varied by the values of the amplitudes and frequencies at which they occurred.
