Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985), Volume 133, Issue 1, 12 2 2022, Pages 20-26 Graded lower body negative pressure induces intraventricular negative pressures and incremental diastolic suction: a pressure-volume study in a porcine model. Berboth L, Zirngast B, Manninger M, Steendijk P, Tschöpe C, Scherr D, Hinghofer-Szalkay HG, Goswami N, Petersen LG, Mächler H, Alogna A
Lower body negative pressure (LBNP) is a tool to study compensatory mechanisms to central hypovolemia for decades. However, the underlying hemodynamic mechanisms were mostly assessed noninvasively and remain unclear. We hypothesized that incremental LBNP reduces diastolic filling and thereby affects left ventricular (LV) diastolic suction (DS). Here, we investigated the impact of graded LBNP at three different levels of seal as well as during β-adrenergic stimulation by invasive pressure-volume... Abstract
