Resting average neurocardiovascular measurements (protocol 1)
| Cardiovascular measurements | Vascular and neural measurements | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| SBP (mmHg) | 125 ± 3 | FBF (ml min−1) | 109.4 ± 10.3 |
| DBP (mmHg) | 71 ± 2 | FVC (ml min−1 mmHg−1) | 1.22 ± 0.10 |
| MAP (mmHg) | 90 ± 2 | Burst frequency, | 18 ± 2 |
| HR (bpm) | 60 ± 2 | Bursts min−1 | |
| CO (l min−1) | 6.7 ± 0.3 | Burst incidence, | 30 ± 3 |
| TVC (ml min−1 mmHg−1) | 74.7 ± 3.8 | Bursts 100 heart beats−1 | |
Values are means ±s.e. CO, cardiac output; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; FBF, forearm blood flow; FVC, forearm vascular conductance; HR, heart rate; MAP, mean arterial blood pressure; SBP, systolic blood pressure; TVC, total vascular conductance.
