Heart rate, heart rate variability, stroke volume, and cardiac output were measured while six college students and six professionals played trumpet. One-minute rest periods were followed by 1 minute of playing exercises designed to assess the effects of pitch and articulation. Heart rate and heart rate variability increased during playing, but stroke volume decreased. Changes in heart rate between resting and playing were greater for students, although beat-to-beat variability was larger for professionals in the upper register. These results suggest that expertise is characterized by greater physiological efficiency.

Diastolic and systolic dimensions of the left ventricle and the free wall of the right ventricle in intact dogs are affected little by spontaneous exercise. The concept that stroke volume and heart rate in normal man increase by about the same relative amounts was derived from estimations of cardiac output, particularly in athletes, based upon indirect measurements using foreign gases or CO2. Data for man obtained with the modern cardiac catheterization or indicator dilution techniques confirm the impression derived from intact dogs that increased stroke volume is neither an essential nor a characteristic feature of the normal cardiac response to exercise. Stroke volume undoubtedly increases whenever cardiac output is increased with little change in heart rate (e.g. in athletes or in patients with chronic volume loads on the heart). Tachycardia produced experimentally with an artificial pacemaker in a resting dog causes a marked reduction in diastolic and systolic dimensions and in the stroke change of dimensions. The factors generally postulated to increase stroke volume during normal exercise may prevent the reduction in stroke volume accompanying tachycardia.

The aim of this research was to study the peculiarities of heart rate variability (HRV) and microcirculation in students, depending on their sport specialization. Methods and Results: Our study included the results of a survey of 96 students from 18 to 21 years of age who were the members of the national teams of their universities in athletics (n=49) and floorball (n=47). For ECG registration and analysis of hemodynamic findings, including those characterizing the HRV, we used the “Medical Soft” sports testing system (“MS FIT Pro”). For monitoring, we used the standard hemodynamic patterns (blood pressure, HR, stroke volume, cardiac output, and others), statistical and spectral indicators of the HRV, as well as an integral criterion of the state of microcirculation. The studied HRV parameters in most students generally were within the age range. At the same time, track and field athletes have large adaptive resources and, consequently, a more optimal level of myocardial fitness, in comparison with floorball players. Conclusion: The orientation of sports training among students affects heart condition.

Interactions between heart rate (HR) and the Frank-Starling mechanism in augmenting cardiac output (CO) during acute volume loading were studied in dogs under varying conditions. In normal conscious dogs with low HRs of 70--90 beats/min, end-diastolic diameter (EDD) was maximal and CO was increased reflexly by cardioacceleration. By contrast, anesthetized open-chest dogs with high HRs ranging from 140 to 160 beats/min, responded with bradycardia and CO was adjusted solely by increasing stroke volume (SV). In anesthetized open-chest dogs with low HRs, EDD was less than maximal and increases in both HR and SV contributed to augment CO. These data show that both the cardioacceleration reflex and the Frank-Starling mechanism are important determinants of the cardiac response to elevated preload. Although the relative contribution of each control mechanism varies with initial conditions, their interplay extends the range of cardioregulation beyond that attainable by either loop operating alone.

Abstract. Chronic low blood pressure (hypotension) is accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, reduced drive, faintness, dizziness, cold limbs, and concentration difficulties. The study explored the involvement of aberrances in autonomic cardiovascular control in the origin of this condition. In 40 hypotensive and 40 normotensive subjects, impedance cardiography, electrocardiography, and continuous blood pressure recordings were performed at rest and during stress induced by mental calculation. Parameters of cardiac sympathetic control (i.e., stroke volume, cardiac output, pre-ejection period, total peripheral resistance), parasympathetic control (i.e., heart rate variability), and baroreflex function (i.e., baroreflex sensitivity) were obtained. The hypotensive group exhibited markedly lower stroke volume, heart rate, and cardiac output, as well as higher pre-ejection period and baroreflex sensitivity than the control group. Hypotension was furthermore associated with a smaller blood pressure response during stress. No group differences arose in total peripheral resistance and heart rate variability. While reduced beta-adrenergic myocardial drive seems to constitute the principal feature of the autonomic impairment that characterizes chronic hypotension, baroreflex-related mechanisms may also contribute to this state. Insufficient organ perfusion due to reduced cardiac output and deficient cardiovascular adjustment to situational requirements may be involved in the manifestation of bodily and mental symptoms.

White Rats

Hyperthermia of 40.5 C was induced in anesthetized white rats by microwave exposure (2,450-Mc continuous wave, .08 w/cm2). Thermal response was accompanied by increased cardiac output, stroke volume, cardiac work, and heart rate. Blood pressure and total peripheral resistance decreased. Administration of reserpine as a single dose of 2.5 mg/kg body wt. 1 day before the experiment depleted the myocardial norepinephrine, but did not eliminate the accelerated heart rate and increase of cardiac output during hyperthermia. Hyperthermia after reserpine did not alter significantly the stroke volume and blood pressure, and the peripheral resistance decreased. These data suggest that the circulatory adaptation to microwave hyperthermia is mediated not only through the sympathetic nervous system, but by other mechanisms such as direct cardiac response to the increased tissue temperature.

Maximal Cardiac Output

We examined the hemodynamic factors associated with the lower maximal O2 consumption (VO2max) in older formerly elite distance runners. Heart rate and VO2 were measured during submaximal and maximal treadmill exercise in 11 master [66 +/- 8 (SD) yr] and 11 young (32 +/- 5 yr) male runners. Cardiac output was determined using acetylene rebreathing at 30, 50, 70, and 85% VO2max. Maximal cardiac output was estimated using submaximal stroke volume and maximal heart rate. VO2max was 36% lower in master runners (45.0 +/- 6.9 vs. 70.4 +/- 8.0 ml.kg-1.min-1, P less than or equal to 0.05), because of both a lower maximal cardiac output (18.2 +/- 3.5 vs. 25.4 +/- 1.7 l.min-1) and arteriovenous O2 difference (16.6 +/- 1.6 vs. 18.7 +/- 1.4 ml O2.100 ml blood-1, P less than or equal to 0.05). Reduced maximal heart rate (154.4 +/- 17.4 vs. 185 +/- 5.8 beats.min-1) and stroke volume (117.1 +/- 16.1 vs. 137.2 +/- 8.7 ml.beat-1) contributed to the lower cardiac output in the older athletes (P less than or equal 0.05). These data indicate that VO2max is lower in master runners because of a diminished capacity to deliver and extract O2 during exercise.

Respiratory Parameters

The participation of the aortic chemoreceptors in the reflex cardiac responses to acute hypoxia is suggested only by the indirect evidence of pharmacological stimulation of these receptors. In order to assess their role more directly, the response to a 15 min period of hypoxia was determined after surgical denervation of the aortic chemoreceptors (A.D.), and compared with the response of sham-operated (S.O.) dogs, anesthetized with morphine–pentobarbital. In the control period, while breathing room air, the cardiovascular and respiratory parameters measured in the A.D. animals were not different from those of the S.O. dogs. Hypoxia (partial pressure of oxygen approximately 30 mm Hg) in the S.O. dogs was associated with a statistically significant rise in the heart rate (+71 ± 7 min−1, mean ± S.E.M.) and of the cardiac output (+25 ± 10 ml kg−1 min−1). In the A.D. animals, the significantly smaller increment in heart rate (+29 ± 6 min−1) was associated with a fall of the cardiac output (−16 ± 12 ml kg−1 min−1). The hypoxia-induced changes in heart rate and cardiac output in the S.O. animals were different (p < 0.05) from those in the A.D. group. The minute volume of ventilation was significantly augmented in both groups, and to a comparable extent. These findings indicate that the aortic chemoreceptors play a significant role in the cardiac response to hypoxia, but they do not affect, to a significant extent, the respiratory response.

Cardiovascular Variables

Cardiovascular variables were studied as a function of oxygen consumption in the emu, a large, flightless ratite bird well suited to treadmill exercise. At the highest level of exercise, the birds' rate of oxygen consumption (VO2) was approximately 11.4 times the resting level (4.2 ml kg-1 min-1). Cardiac output was linearly related to VO2, increasing 9.5 ml for each 1 ml increase in oxygen consumption. The increase in cardiac output is similar to that in other birds, but appears to be larger than in mammals. The venous oxygen content dropped during exercise, thus increasing the arteriovenous oxygen content difference. At the highest levels of exercise, heart rate showed a 3.9-fold increase over the resting rate (45.8 beats min-1). The mean resting specific stroke volume was 1.5 ml per kg body mass, which is larger than shown by most mammals. However, birds have larger hearts relative to body mass than do mammals, and stroke volume expressed per gram of heart (0.18 ml g-1) is similar to that for mammals. Stroke volume showed a 1.8-fold increase as a result of exercise in the emus, but a change in heart rate plays a greater role in increasing cardiac output during exercise.

The Third

We've already looked at 2 types of pressure that affect physiology (atmospheric and hydrostatic pressure). Now let's consider the third: vascular pressures that result from mechanical events in the cardiovascular system. As you already know, cardiac output can be defined as the product of heart rate times stroke volume. Heart rate is self-explanatory. Stroke volume is determined by 3 factors—preload, afterload, and inotropy—and these determinants are in turn dependent on how the left ventricle handles pressure. In a pressure-volume loop, ‘afterload’ is represented by the pressure at the end of isovolumic contraction—just when the aortic valve opens (because the ventricular pressure is now higher than aortic root pressure). These loops not only are straightforward but are easier to construct just by thinking them through, rather than by memorization.
