Key result
Changes in cardiac output induce passive changes in blood volume that are as large as active reflexic changes, with the majority of the change occurring in the systemic circulation.

Anesthetized dogs, weighing 8.0-13.0 kg.
Comparison
Stepwise changes in cardiac output by +/- 25% or… vs Intact reflexic state versus areflexic state.

Should not yet inform clinical volume management; hypothesis-generating for integrated passive-reflex circulatory control.
In a canine model, passive changes in blood volume following changes in cardiac output are as large as active reflexic changes, with the majority occurring in the systemic circulation.
Numao et al. (1977) studied Healthy (anesthetized dogs) (n=24). Changes in cardiac output (pump flow) vs. Control flow (80 ml/min/kg) was evaluated on Change in circulatory blood volume. Changes in cardiac output induce passive changes in blood volume that are as large as active reflexic changes, with the majority of the change occurring in the systemic circulation.
