Autoregulation of coronary vessels following the acute blood loss and its combination with preexisting immobilization stress]

A 6-hour immobilization stress and a 2-hour posthaemorrhagic hypotension caused elevation of the coronary flow, deterioration of coronary autoregulation, decreasing of the coronary dilation reserve, and diminishing of the left ventricular pressure. In the "stress + haemorrhage" group, the changes of the coronary vessels autoregulation ability were less obvious. Concentration of NO3-/NO2- in the blood serum was elevated after stress. Inhibition of the NO-synthase decreased the coronary flow. Thereupon, a pre-existing immobilization stress alters the coronary vessels tone.
