- Abstract
- "Background : There is substantial evidence that the vestibular system is involved in the regulation of blood pressure.
Heart rate variability (HRV) is useful to investigate the role of the peripheral vestibular receptors and the baroreceptors
in the orthostatic tolerance. Methods : EKG was recorded during postural changes with the head up either after sinoaor -tic
denervation or after bilateral labyrinthectomies in Sprague-Dawley rats. HRV, including mean, standard deviation,
coefficient of variation (CV), and power spectrum, were analyzed from R-R intervals of EKG. Results : Phenylephrine
increased low frequency region and sodium nitroprusside increased high frequency region in the power spectral analysis
of HRV in anesthetized rats. Postural changes decreased blood pressure transiently and then increased blood pressure
gradually in control rats, but the depression of blood pressure induced by postural change was greater in rats with both
sinoaortic denervation and bilateral labyrinthectomies. The increase of CV of HRV just after sinoaortic denervation or
bilateral labyrinthectomies represents an unstable heart rate in resting position, however, CV of HRV was increased
markedly by postural change 7 days after bilateral labyrinthectomies. Postural change with sinoaortic denervation
increased low-frequency region representing sympathetic activity, whereas bilateral labyrinthectomies increased high-frequency
region representing parasympathetic activity in power spectral analysis. Conclusions : These results suggest
that both the peripheral vestibular receptors and the baroreceptors have subsidiary action in orthostatic tolerance and the
peripheral vestibular receptors regulate blood pressure during postural change through the sympathetic nervous system.Key Words : Heart rate variability, Peripheral vestibular receptors, Orthostatic tolerance, Sinoaortic denervation"
