Transient interactions between blood pressure, respiration and heart rate in man.
Auto regressive spectral estimation techniques have been used to follow transient interactions between mean blood pressure, respiration and heart rate. This demonstrates that these inter-relationships are variable. It is concluded that while central modulation of heart rate is the major factor in the interactions, when the heart rate is fixed, peripheral modulation of the blood pressure by respiration is clearly demonstrated.
