We have previously shown that intrasplenic fluid extravasation is important in controlling blood volume. We proposed that, because the splenic vein flows in the portal vein, portal hypertension would increase splenic venous pressure and thus increase intrasplenic microvascular pressure and fluid extravasation. Given that the rat spleen has no capacity to store/release blood, intrasplenic fluid extravasation can be estimated by measuring the difference between splenic arterial inflow and venous outflow. In anesthetized rats, partial ligation of the portal vein rostral to the junction with the splenic vein caused portal venous pressure to rise from 4.5 +/- 0.5 to 12.0 +/- 0.9 mmHg (n = 6); there was no change in portal venous pressure downstream of the ligation, although blood flow in the liver fell. Splenic arterial flow did not change, but the arteriovenous flow differential increased from 0.8 +/- 0.3 to 1.2 +/- 0.1 ml/min (n = 6), and splenic venous hematocrit rose. Mean arterial pressure fell (101 +/- 5.5 to 95 +/- 4 mmHg). Splenic afferent nerve activity increased (5.6 +/- 0.9 to 16.2 +/- 0.7 spikes/s, n = 5). Contrary to our hypothesis, partial ligation of the portal vein caudal to the junction with the splenic vein (same increase in portal venous pressure but no increase in splenic venous pressure) also caused the splenic arteriovenous flow differential to increase (0.6 +/- 0.1 to 1.0 +/- 0.2 ml/min; n = 8). The increase in intrasplenic fluid efflux and the fall in mean arterial pressure after rostral portal vein ligation were abolished by splenic denervation. We propose there to be an intestinal/hepatic/splenic reflex pathway, through which is mediated the changes in intrasplenic extravasation and systemic blood pressure observed during portal hypertension. 相似文献

Portal hypertension initiates a splenorenal reflex, whereby increases in splenic afferent nerve activity and renal sympathetic nerve activity cause a decrease in renal blood flow (RBF). We postulated that mesenteric vascular congestion similarly compromises renal function through an intestinal-renal reflex. The portal vein was partially occluded in anesthetized rats, either rostral or caudal to the junction with the splenic vein. Portal venous pressure increased (6.5 +/- 0.1 to 13.2 +/- 0.1 mmHg; n = 78) and mesenteric venous outflow was equally obstructed in both cases. However, only rostral occlusion increased splenic venous pressure. Rostral occlusion caused a fall in RBF (-1.2 +/- 0.2 ml/min; n = 9) that was attenuated by renal denervation (-0.5 +/- 0.1 ml/min; n = 6), splenic denervation (-0.2 +/- 0.1 ml/min; n = 11), celiac ganglionectomy (-0.3 +/- 0.1 ml/min; n = 9), and splenectomy (-0.5 +/- 0.1 ml/min; n = 6). Caudal occlusion induced a significantly smaller fall in RBF (-0.5 +/- 0.1 ml/min; n = 9), which was not influenced by renal denervation (-0.2 +/- 0.2 ml/min; n = 6), splenic denervation (-0.1 +/- 0.1 ml/min; n = 7), celiac ganglionectomy (-0.1 +/- 0.3 ml/min; n = 8), or splenectomy (-0.3 +/- 0.1 ml/min; n = 7). Renal arterial conductance fell only in intact animals subjected to rostral occlusion (-0.007 +/- 0.002 ml.min(-1).mmHg(-1)). This was accompanied by increases in splenic afferent nerve activity (15.0 +/- 3.5 to 32.6 +/- 6.2 spikes/s; n = 7) and renal efferent nerve activity (32.7 +/- 5.2 to 39.3 +/- 6.0 spikes/s; n = 10). In animals subjected to caudal occlusion, there were no such changes in renal arterial conductance or splenic afferent/renal sympathetic nerve activity. We conclude that the portal hypertension-induced fall in RBF is initiated by increased splenic, but not mesenteric, venous pressure, i.e., we did not find evidence for intestinal-renal reflex control of the kidneys. 相似文献

During lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemia, increased intrasplenic fluid efflux contributes to a reduction in plasma volume. We hypothesized that splenic sympathetic nerve activity (SSNA), which increases during endotoxemia, limits intrasplenic fluid efflux. We reasoned that splenic denervation would exaggerate LPS-induced intrasplenic fluid efflux and worsen the hypotension, hemoconcentration, and hypovolemia. A nonlethal dose of LPS (150 microg x kg(-1) x h(-1) for 18 h) was infused into conscious male rats bearing transit time flow probes on the splenic artery and vein. Fluid efflux was estimated from the difference in splenic arterial inflow and venous outflow (A-V). LPS significantly increased the (A-V) flow differential (fluid efflux) in intact rats (saline -0.01 +/- 0.02 ml/min, n = 8 vs. LPS +0.21 +/- 0.06 ml/min, n = 8); this was exaggerated in splenic denervated rats (saline -0.03 +/- 0.01 ml/min, n = 7 vs. LPS +0.41 +/- 0.08 ml/min, n = 8). Splenic denervation also exacerbated the LPS-induced hypotension, hemoconcentration, and hypovolemia (peak fall in mean arterial pressure: denervated 19 +/- 3 mmHg, n = 10 vs. intact 12 +/- 1 mmHg, n = 8; peak rise in hematocrit: denervated 6.7 +/- 0.3%, n = 8 vs. intact 5.0 +/- 0.3%, n = 8; decrease in plasma volume at 90-min post-LPS infusion: denervated 1.08 +/- 0.15 ml/100 g body wt, n = 7 vs. intact 0.54 +/- 0.08 ml/100 g body wt, n = 8). The exaggerated LPS-induced hypovolemia associated with splenic denervation was mirrored in the rise in plasma renin activity (90 min post-LPS: denervated 11.5 +/- 0.8 ng x ml(-1) x h(-1), n = 9 vs. intact 6.6 +/- 0.7 ng x ml(-1) x h(-1), n = 8). These results are consistent with our proposal that SSNA normally limits LPS-induced intrasplenic fluid efflux. 相似文献

We hypothesized that nitric oxide (NO) contributes to intrasplenic fluid extravasation by inducing greater relaxation in splenic resistance arteries than veins such that intrasplenic microvascular pressure (P(C)) rises. Fluid efflux was estimated by measuring the difference between splenic blood inflow and outflow. Intrasplenic infusion of the NO donor S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) (0.3 microg. 10 microl(-1). min(-1)) caused a significant increase in intrasplenic fluid efflux (baseline: 0.8 +/- 0.4 ml/min, n = 10 vs. peak rise during SNAP infusion: 1.3 +/- 0.4 ml/min, n = 10; P < 0.05). Intrasplenic P(C) was measured in the isolated, blood-perfused rat spleen. Intrasplenic infusion of SNAP (0.1 microg. 10 microl(-1). min(-1)) caused a significant increase in P(C) (saline: 10.9 +/- 0.2 mmHg, n = 3 vs. SNAP: 12.2 +/- 0.2 mmHg, n = 3; P < 0.05). Vasoreactivity of preconstricted splenic resistance vessels to sodium nitroprusside (SNP) (1 x 10(-12)-1 x 10(-4) M) and SNAP (1 x 10(-10)-3 x 10(-4) M) was investigated with the use of a wire myograph system. Significantly greater relaxation of arterioles than of venules occurred with both SNP (%maximal vasorelaxation: artery 96 +/- 2.3, n = 9 vs. vein 26 +/- 1.9, n = 10) and SNAP (%maximal vasorelaxation: artery 50 +/- 3.5, n = 11 vs. vein 32 +/- 1.7, n = 8). These results are consistent with our proposal that differential vasoreactivity of splenic resistance arteries and veins to NO elevates intrasplenic P(C) and increases fluid extravasation into the systemic lymphatic system. 相似文献

In the rat, the spleen is a major site of fluid efflux out of the blood. By contrast, the mesenteric vasculature serves as a blood reservoir. We proposed that the compliance and myogenic responses of these vascular beds would reflect their different functional demands. Mesenteric and splenic arterioles ( approximately 150-200 microm) and venules (<250 microm) from rats anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium were mounted in a pressurized myograph. Mesenteric arterial diameter decreased from 146 +/- 6 to 133 +/- 6 microm on raising intraluminal pressures from 80 to 120 mmHg. This response was enhanced in the presence of N(omega)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME; 139 +/- 6 to 112 +/- 7 microm). There was no such myogenic response in the splenic arterioles, except in the presence of l-NAME (194 +/- 4 to 164 +/- 4.2 microm). We propose that, whereas mesenteric arterioles exhibit myogenic responses, this is normally masked by NO-mediated dilation in the splenic vessels. The mesenteric venules were highly distensible (active, 184 +/- 15 to 320 +/- 30.9 microm; passive in Ca(2+)-free media, 209 +/- 31 to 344 +/- 27 microm; 4-8 mmHg) compared with the splenic vessels (active, 169 +/- 11 to 184 +/- 16 microm; passive, 187 +/- 12 to 207 +/- 17 microm). We conclude that, in response to an increase in perfusion pressure, mesenteric arterial diameter would decrease to limit the changes in flow and microvascular pressure. In addition, mesenteric venous capacitance would increase. By contrast, splenic arterial diameter would increase, while there would be little change in venous diameter. This would enhance the increase in intrasplenic microvascular pressure and increase fluid extravasation. 相似文献

Flap failure is a clinical problem in free tissue transfer, and there is no reliable device for monitoring the tissue. Differentiating between an arterial occlusion and venous congestion is also a problem. A study was undertaken to monitor viability in a pedicled groin flap and to compare two different monitoring methods. The oxygen tension in the flap, measured with a modified Clark-type microelectrode (tip diameter = 3 to 8 microm; 90 percent response within 2.6 +/- 0.5 seconds), was compared with changes in blood flow in the flap, measured with a laser-Doppler probe. In 11 Sprague-Dawley rats, the changes in oxygen tension and blood flow in the pedicled groin flap were studied after clamping and subsequent reperfusion of the artery or vein. After occlusion of the artery to the flap, oxygen tension decreased to a stable value (i.e., the recording level remained unchanged for 30 seconds), from 19.7 +/- 1.8 to 0.3 +/- 0.1 mmHg, after 193 +/-25 seconds; blood flow decreased to a stable value, from 117 +/- 21 to 54 +/- 18 perfusion units, after 26 +/- 6 seconds. Clamping of the vein resulted in a decrease in oxygen tension, from 17.1 +/- 1.8 to 1.4 +/- 0.7 mmHg, after 416 +/- 67 seconds, and blood flow decreased to a stable value, from 90 +/- 14 to 35 +/- 6 perfusion units, after 107 +/- 27 seconds. The results of this study show that there is a difference in oxygen tension and blood flow responses between arterial and venous occlusion and that it may be possible with both methods to distinguish arterial from venous occlusion. However, although oxygen tension measurements are slightly slower in response than laser-Doppler measurements, the values are more reliable as a diagnostic tool for interpretation of a vessel occlusion. 相似文献

The measurement of peripheral blood flow by plethysmography assumes that the cuff pressure required for venous occlusion does not decrease arterial inflow. However, studies in five normal subjects suggested that calf blood flow measured with a plethysmograph was less than arterial inflow calculated from Doppler velocity measurements. We hypothesized that the pressure required for venous occlusion may have decreased arterial velocity. Further studies revealed that systolic diameter of the superficial femoral artery under a thigh cuff decreased from 7.7 +/- 0.4 to 5.6 +/- 0.7 mm (P less than 0.05) when the inflation pressure was increased from 0 to 40 mmHg. Cuff inflation to 40 mmHg also reduced mean velocity 38% in the common femoral artery and 47% in the popliteal artery. Inflation of a cuff on the arm reduced mean velocity in the radial artery 22% at 20 mmHg, 26% at 40 mmHg, and 33% at 60 mmHg. We conclude that inflation of a cuff on an extremity to low pressures for venous occlusion also caused a reduction in arterial diameter and flow velocity. 相似文献

Bronchial collateral vessel micropuncture pressure in postobstructive pulmonary vasculopathy. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Postobstructive pulmonary vasculopathy, produced by chronic ligation of one pulmonary artery, markedly increases bronchial blood flow. Previously, using arterial and venous occlusion, we determined that bronchial collaterals enter the pulmonary circuit at the distal end of the arterial segment. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that pressure in bronchial collaterals (Pbr) closely approximates that at the downstream end of the arterial segment (Pao). We pump perfused [111 +/- 10 (SE) ml/min] left lower lobes of seven open-chest live dogs 3-15 mo after ligation of the left main pulmonary artery. Bronchial blood flow was 122 +/- 16 ml/min. We measured pulmonary arterial and venous pressures and, by arterial and venous occlusion, respectively, Pao and the pressure at the upstream end of the venous segment (Pvo). Pbr was obtained by micropuncture of 34 pleural surface bronchial vessels 201 +/- 16 microns in diameter. We found that Pbr (14.4 +/- 1.0 mmHg) was similar to Pao (15.0 +/- 0.8 mmHg) but differed significantly (P < 0.01) from Pvo (11.3 +/- 0.5 mmHg). In addition, Pbr was independent of systemic arterial pressure and bronchial vessel diameter. Light and electron microscopy revealed that, in the lobes with the ligated pulmonary artery, the new bronchial collaterals entered the thickened pleura from the parenchyma via either bronchovascular bundles or interlobular septa and had sparsely muscularized walls. We conclude that, in postobstructive pulmonary vasculopathy, bronchial collateral pressure measured by micropuncture is very close to the pressure in precapillary pulmonary arteries and that most of the pressure drop in the bronchial collaterals occurs in vessels > 350 microns in diameter. 相似文献

The effect of increased arterial pressure (Pa) on microvessel pressure (Pc) and edema following microvascular obstruction (100-micron glass spheres) was examined in the isolated ventilated dog lung lobe pump perfused with blood. Lobar vascular resistance (PVR) increased 2- to 10-fold following emboli when either Pa or flow was held constant. Microbead obstruction increased the ratio of precapillary to total PVR from 0.60 +/- 0.05 to 0.84 +/- 0.02 (SE) or to 0.75 +/- 0.06 (n = 6), as determined by the venous occlusion and the isogravimetric capillary pressure techniques, respectively. Isogravimetric Pc (5.0 +/- 0.7) did not differ from Pc obtained by venous occlusion (3.8 +/- 0.2 Torr, n = 6). After embolism, Pc in constant Pa decreased from 6.2 +/- 0.3 to 4.4 +/- 0.3 Torr (n = 16). In the constant-flow group, embolism doubled Pa while Pc increased only 40% (6.7 +/- 0.6 to 9.2 +/- 1.4 Torr, n = 6) with no greater edema formation than in the constant Pa groups. These data indicate poor transmission of Pa to filtering capillaries. Microembolism, even when accompanied by elevated Pa and increased flow velocity of anticoagulated blood of low leukocyte and platelet counts, caused little edema. Our results suggest that mechanical effects alone of lung microvascular obstruction cause minimal pulmonary edema. 相似文献

Pulmonary hemodynamics and lung water content were evaluated in open-chest dogs during splanchnic arterial occlusion (SAO) shock. Mean pulmonary arterial pressure [Ppa = 13.0 +/- 0.6 (SE) mmHg] and pulmonary venous pressure (4.1 +/- 0.2 mmHg) were measured by direct cannulation and the capillary pressure (Ppc = 9.0 +/- 0.6 mmHg) estimated by the double-occlusion technique. SAO shock did not produce a significant change in Ppa or Ppc despite a 90% decrease in cardiac output. An 18-fold increase in pulmonary vascular resistance occurred, and most of this increase (70%) was on the venous side of the circulation. No differences in lung water content between shocked and sham-operated dogs were observed. The effect of SAO shock was further evaluated in the isolated canine left lower lobe (LLL) perfused at constant flow and outflow pressure. The addition of venous blood from shock dogs to the LLL perfusion circuit caused a transient (10-15 min) increase in LLL arterial pressure (51%) that could be reversed rapidly with papaverine. In this preparation, shock blood produced either a predominantly arterioconstriction or a predominantly venoconstriction. These results indicate that both arterial and venous vasoactive agents are released during SAO shock. The consistently observed venoconstriction in the intact shocked lung suggests that other factors, in addition to circulating vasoactive agents, contribute to the pulmonary hemodynamic response of the open-chest shocked dog. 相似文献

Lifting of a heavy weight may lead to "blackout" and occasionally also to cerebral hemorrhage, indicating pronounced consequences for the blood flow through the brain. We hypothesized that especially strenuous respiratory straining (a Valsalva-like maneuver) associated with intense static exercise would lead to a precipitous rise in mean arterial and central venous pressures and, in turn, influence the middle cerebral artery blood velocity (MCA V(mean)) as a noninvasive indicator of changes in cerebral blood flow. In 10 healthy subjects, MCA V(mean) was evaluated in response to maximal static two-legged exercise performed either with a concomitantly performed Valsalva maneuver or with continued ventilation and also during a Valsalva maneuver without associated exercise (n = 6). During static two-legged exercise, the largest rise for mean arterial pressure and MCA V(mean) was established at the onset of exercise performed with a Valsalva-like maneuver (by 42 +/- 5 mmHg and 31 +/- 3% vs. 22 +/- 6 mmHg and 25 +/- 6% with continued ventilation; P < 0.05). Profound reductions in MCA V(mean) were observed both after exercise with continued ventilation (-29 +/- 4% together with a reduction in the arterial CO(2) tension by -5 +/- 1 Torr) and during the maintained Valsalva maneuver (-21 +/- 3% together with an elevation in central venous pressure to 40 +/- 7 mmHg). Responses to performance of the Valsalva maneuver with and without exercise were similar, reflecting the deterministic importance of the Valsalva maneuver for the central and cerebral hemodynamic response to intense static exercise. Continued ventilation during intense static exercise may limit the initial rise in arterial pressure and may in turn reduce the risk of hemorrhage. On the other hand, blackout during and after intense static exercise may reflect a reduction in cerebral blood flow due to expiratory straining and/or hyperventilation. 相似文献

In humans, multiparity (repeated pregnancy) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. In rats, multiparity increases the pressor response to phenylephrine and to acute stress, due in part to changes in tone of the splanchnic arterial vasculature. Given that the venous system also changes during pregnancy, we studied the effects of multiparity on venous tone and compliance. Cardiovascular responses to volume loading (2 ml/100 g body wt), and mean circulatory filling pressure (MCFP, an index of venomotor tone) were measured in conscious, repeatedly bred (RB), and age-matched virgin rats. In addition, passive compliance and venous reactivity of isolated mesenteric veins were measured by pressure myography. There was a greater increase in mean arterial pressure after volume loading in RB rats (+7.2 +/- 2.5 mmHg, n = 8) than virgin rats (-1.4 +/- 1.7 mmHg, n = 7) (P < 0.05). The increase in MCFP in response to norepinephrine (NE) was also greater in RB rats [half maximal effective dose (ED(50)) 3.1 +/- 0.5 nmol.kg(-1).min(-1), n = 6] than virgins (ED(50): 12.1 +/- 2.7 nmol.kg(-1).min(-1), n = 6) (P < 0.05). Pressure-induced changes in passive diameter were lower in isolated mesenteric veins from RB rats (29.3 +/- 1.8 microm/mmHg, n = 6) than from virgins (36.9 +/- 1.3 microm/mmHg, n = 6) (P < 0.05). Venous reactivity to NE in isolated veins was also greater in RB rats (EC(50): 2.68 +/- 0.37x10(-8) M, n = 5) than virgins (EC(50): 4.67 +/- 0.93 x 10(-8) M, n = 8). We conclude that repeated pregnancy induces a long-term reduction in splanchnic venous compliance and augments splanchnic venous reactivity and sympathetic tonic control of total body venous tone. This compromises the ability of the capacitance (venous) system to accommodate volume overloads and to buffer changes in cardiac preload. 相似文献

The hepatic arterial buffer response (HABR) tends to maintain liver blood flow under conditions of low mesenteric perfusion. We hypothesized that systemic hypoperfusion impairs the HABR. In 12 pigs, aortic blood flow was reduced by cardiac tamponade to 50 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) for 1 h (short-term tamponade) and further to 30 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) for another hour (prolonged tamponade). Twelve pigs without tamponade served as controls. Portal venous blood flow decreased from 17 +/- 3 (baseline) to 6 +/- 4 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.012) and did not change in controls, whereas hepatic arterial blood flow decreased from 2 +/- 1 (baseline) to 1 +/- 1 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.050) and increased from 2 +/- 1 to 4 +/- 2 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) in controls (P = 0.002). The change in hepatic arterial conductance (DeltaC(ha)) during acute portal vein occlusion decreased from 0.1 +/- 0.05 (baseline) to 0 +/- 0.01 ml. kg(-1). min(-1). mmHg(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.043). In controls, DeltaC(ha) did not change. Hepatic lactate extraction decreased, but hepatic release of glutathione S-transferase A did not change during cardiac tamponade. In conclusion, during low systemic perfusion, the HABR is exhausted and hepatic function is impaired without signs of cellular damage. 相似文献

Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is defined by orthostatic intolerance associated with abnormal upright tachycardia. Some patients have defective peripheral vasoconstriction and increased calf blood flow. Others have increased peripheral arterial resistance and decreased blood flow. In 14 POTS patients (13-19 yr) evenly subdivided among low-flow POTS (LFP) and high-flow POTS (HFP) we tested the hypothesis that myogenic, venoarteriolar, and reactive hyperemic responses are abnormal. We used venous occlusion plethysmography to measure calf venous pressure and blood flow in the supine position and when the calf was lowered by 40 cm to evoke myogenic and venoarteriolar responses and during venous hypertension by 40-mmHg occlusion to evoke the venoarteriolar response. We measured calf reactive hyperemia with plethysmography and cutaneous laser-Doppler flowmetry. Baseline blood flow in LFP was reduced compared with HFP and control subjects (0.8 +/- 0.2 vs. 4.4 +/- 0.5 and 2.7 +/- 0.4 ml.min-1.100 ml-1) but increased during leg lowering (1.2 +/- 0.5 ml.min-1. 100 ml-1) while decreasing in the others. Baseline peripheral arterial resistance was increased in LFP and decreased in HFP compared with control subjects (39 +/- 13 vs. 15 +/- 3 and 22 +/- 5 mmHg.ml-1. 100 ml. min) but decreased to 29 +/- 13 mmHg.ml-1.100 ml. min in LFP during venous hypertension. Resistance increased in the other groups. Maximum calf hyperemic flow and cutaneous flow were similar in all subjects. The duration of hyperemic blood flow was curtailed in LFP compared with either control or HFP subjects (plethysmographic time constant = 20 +/- 2 vs. 29 +/- 4 and 28 +/- 4 s; cutaneous time constant = 60 +/- 25 vs. 149 +/- 53 s in controls). Local blood flow regulation in low-flow POTS is impaired. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine neurovascular responses to mental stress (MS) in the supine and upright postures. MS was elicited in 23 subjects (26 +/- 1 yr) by 5 min of mental arithmetic. In study 1 (n = 9), Doppler ultrasound was used to measure mean blood flow velocity in the renal (RBFV) and superior mesenteric arteries (SMBFV), and venous occlusion plethysmography was used to measure forearm blood flow (FBF). In study 2 (n = 14), leg blood flow (LBF; n = 9) was measured by Doppler ultrasound, and muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA; n = 5) was measured by microneurography. At rest, upright posture increased heart rate and MSNA and decreased LBF, FBF, RBFV, and SMBFV and their respective conductances. MS elicited similar increases in mean arterial blood pressure ( approximately 12 mmHg) and heart rate ( approximately 17 beats/min), regardless of posture. MS in both postures elicited a decrease in RBFV, SMBFV, and their conductances and an increase in LBF, FBF, and their conductances. Changes in blood flow were blunted in the upright posture in all vascular beds examined, but the pattern of the vascular response was the same as the supine posture. MS did not change MSNA in either posture (change: approximately 1 +/- 3 and approximately 3 +/- 3 bursts/min, respectively). In conclusion, the augmented sympathetic activity of the upright posture does not alter heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, or MSNA responses to MS. MS elicits divergent vascular responses in the visceral and peripheral vasculature. These results indicate that, although the upright posture attenuates vascular responses to MS, the pattern of neurovascular responses does not differ between postures. 相似文献

Compared with arterial hemodynamics, there has been relatively little study of venous hemodynamics. We propose that the venous system behaves just like the arterial system: waves propagate on a time-varying reservoir, the windkessel, which functions as the reverse of the arterial windkessel. During later diastole, pressure increases exponentially to approach an asymptotic value as inflow continues in the absence of outflow. Our study in eight open-chest dogs showed that windkessel-related arterial resistance was approximately 62% of total systemic vascular resistance, whereas windkessel-related venous resistance was only approximately 7%. Total venous compliance was found to be 21 times larger than arterial compliance (n = 3). Inferior vena caval compliance (0.32 +/- 0.015 ml x mmHg(-1) x kg(-1); mean +/- SE) was approximately 14 times the aortic compliance (0.023 +/- 0.002 ml x mmHg(-1) x kg(-1); n = 8). Despite greater venous compliance, the variation in venous windkessel volume (i.e., compliance x windkessel pulse pressure; 7.8 +/- 1.1 ml) was only approximately 32% of the variation in aortic windkessel volume (24.3 +/- 2.9 ml) because of the larger arterial pressure variation. In addition, and contrary to previous understanding, waves generated by the right heart propagated upstream as far as the femoral vein, but excellent proportionality between the excess pressure and venous outflow suggests that no reflected waves returned to the right atrium. Thus the venous windkessel model not only successfully accounts for variations in the venous pressure and flow waveforms but also, in combination with the arterial windkessel, provides a coherent view of the systemic circulation. 相似文献

Application of compression stockings to the lower extremities is a widely used therapeutic intervention to improve venous return, but there is little information about the effects of compression on local arterial perfusion. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that a positive external pressure increases forearm perfusion. The relation of increasing external pressure induced by standardized compression to the arterial inflow and arterial flow reserve of the forearm was critically evaluated in a group of healthy young men (n = 9). Flow was measured with venous occlusion plethysmography after a 10-min application of six different stockings with compression pressure increasing from 13 to 23 mmHg. During compression, the arterial inflow increased significantly from 3.7 +/- 0.85 to 8.8 +/- 2.01 ml.min(-1).100 ml tissue(-1) (P < 0.001) and the arterial flow reserve increased from 17.7 +/- 4.7 to 28.3 +/- 7.0 ml.min(-1).100 ml tissue(-1). The flow increase was persistent after 3 h of constant application of external pressure and also during simultaneous low-intensity hand grip. Similar results obtained with occlusion plethysmography were seen with MRI. During the interventions, forearm temperature was unchanged, and the volunteers reported no discomfort. In conclusion, 1) arterial perfusion of the human forearm increases more than twofold during application of external compression over a pressure range of 13-23 mmHg, and 2) the result is interpreted as an autoregulatory response following the decrease of the vascular transmural pressure gradient. 相似文献

The venous occlusion technique was used to measure capillary pressure in the forearm and foot of man over a wide range of venous pressures. In six recumbent subjects venous pressure (Pv) in the forearm (mean +/- SE) was 9.3 +/- 1.4 mmHg and the venous occlusion estimate of capillary pressure (Pc) was 17.0 +/- 1.6 mmHg, whereas in another six subjects Pv in the foot was 17.1 +/- 1.2 mmHg and Pc was 23.4 +/- 2.5 mmHg. Venous pressure in the limbs was increased either by changes in posture or by venous congestion with a sphygmomanometer cuff. On standing Pv in the foot increased to 95.2 +/- 1.5 mmHg and Pc rose to 112.8 +/- 3.1 mmHg. The relationship established between venous pressure and capillary pressure in the forearm is Pc = 1.16 Pv + 8.1, whereas in the foot the relationship is Pc = 1.2 Pv + 1.6. The magnitude and duration of the changes in capillary pressure were also recorded during reactive hyperemia. The venous occlusion method of measuring capillary pressure is simple and easily applied to studies in humans. 相似文献

Chronic microgravity may modify adaptations of the leg circulation to gravitational pressures. We measured resting calf compliance and blood flow with venous occlusion plethysmography, and arterial blood pressure with sphygmomanometry, in seven subjects before, during, and after spaceflight. Calf vascular resistance equaled mean arterial pressure divided by calf flow. Compliance equaled the slope of the calf volume change and venous occlusion pressure relationship for thigh cuff pressures of 20, 40, 60, and 80 mmHg held for 1, 2, 3, and 4 min, respectively, with 1-min breaks between occlusions. Calf blood flow decreased 41% in microgravity (to 1.15 +/- 0.16 ml x 100 ml(-1) x min(-1)) relative to 1-G supine conditions (1.94 +/- 0.19 ml x 100 ml(-1) x min(-1), P = 0.01), and arterial pressure tended to increase (P = 0.05), such that calf vascular resistance doubled in microgravity (preflight: 43 +/- 4 units; in-flight: 83 +/- 13 units; P < 0.001) yet returned to preflight levels after flight. Calf compliance remained unchanged in microgravity but tended to increase during the first week postflight (P > 0.2). Calf vasoconstriction in microgravity qualitatively agrees with the "upright set-point" hypothesis: the circulation seeks conditions approximating upright posture on Earth. No calf hemodynamic result exhibited obvious mechanistic implications for postflight orthostatic intolerance. 相似文献

In the conscious rabbit, exposure to an air jet stressor increases arterial pressure, heart rate, and cardiac output. During hemorrhage, air jet exposure extends the blood loss necessary to produce hypotension. It is possible that this enhanced defense of arterial pressure is a general characteristic of stressors. However, some stressors such as oscillation (OSC), although they increase arterial pressure, do not change heart rate or cardiac output. The cardiovascular changes during OSC resemble those seen during freezing behavior. In the present study, our hypothesis was that, unlike air jet, OSC would not affect defense of arterial blood pressure during blood loss. Male New Zealand White rabbits were chronically prepared with arterial and venous catheters and Doppler flow probes. We removed venous blood until mean arterial pressure decreased to 40 mmHg. We repeated the experiment in each rabbit on separate days in the presence and absence (SHAM) of OSC. Compared with SHAM, OSC increased arterial pressure 14 +/- 1 mmHg, central venous pressure 3.3 +/- 0.4 mmHg, and hindquarter blood flow 34 +/- 4% while decreasing mesenteric conductance 32 +/- 3% and not changing heart rate or cardiac output. During normotensive hemorrhage, OSC enhanced hindquarter and renal vasoconstriction. Contrary to our hypothesis, OSC (23.5 +/- 0.6 ml/kg) increased the blood loss necessary to produce hypotension compared with SHAM (16.8 +/- 0.6 ml/kg). In nine rabbits, OSC prevented hypotension even after a blood loss of 27 ml/kg. Thus a stressful stimulus that resulted in cardiovascular changes similar to those seen during freezing behavior enhanced defense of arterial pressure during hemorrhage. 相似文献
