Auricular fibrillation induced and maintained in animals by acetylcholine or vagal stimulation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Animals pretreated with appropriate closes of anticholinesterase agents develop auricular flutter and fibrillation following injection of acetylcholine or vagal stimulation. Depression of normal sinoauricular nodal function facilitates induction of fibrillation. During fibrillation, additional injections of acetylcholine, or vagal stimulation, increase the rate of fibrillation. Atropine in small closes reverts the fibrillation to normal sinus rhythm.

Beneficial Effects of Vagal Stimulation and Bradyeardia During Experimental Acute Myocardial Ischemia
It is commonly believed that vagally-mediated bradyeardia predisposes to ventricular fibrillation (VF) during acute myocardial ischemia. Recent experimental studies, however, have shown that bradycardia and vagal stimulation independently raise the threshold for electrically induced VF in the ischemic canine heart. To determine the influence of vagal stimulation on the spontaneous development o...

متن کاملVASODILATOR EFFECTS OF ACETYLCHOLINE IN AN EXPERIMEN TAL MODEL OF HEART FAILURE
The purpose of the work presented here was to investigate endotheliumdependent relaxations in the rabbit coronary ligation model of heart failure. We investigated endothelium-dependent relaxations at the level of larger vessels (thoracic aorta and vena cava left renal artery and left renal vein lateral saphenous artery and lateral saphenous vein and finally central ear artery and marginal e...
متن کاملAuricular Acupuncture and Vagal Regulation
Auricular acupuncture has been utilized in the treatment of diseases for thousands of years. Dr. Paul Nogier firstly originated the concept of an inverted fetus map on the external ear. In the present study, the relationship between the auricular acupuncture and the vagal regulation has been reviewed. It has been shown that auricular acupuncture plays a role in vagal activity of autonomic funct...
متن کاملMechanisms for vagal modulation of ventricular repolarization and of coronary occlusion-induced lethal arrhythmias in cats.
Our goal was to better understand the mechanisms underlying muscarinic receptor actions on the ventricle in vivo. Therefore, we studied the effects of vagal stimulation on ventricular repolarization and of vagal tone on lethal arrhythmias induced by 30 minutes of left anterior descending coronary artery ligation in anesthetized cats. Experimental groups included normal control cats subjected on...
