Why the study?
Does increased cardiopulmonary receptor activity via water immersion alter the bradycardic response to carotid baroreceptor stimulation in normotensive subjects?

Increased cardiopulmonary receptor activity reduces the arterial baroreceptor ability to modulate heart rate in humans.

May blunt baroreflex HR responses during cardiopulmonary loading; leaves open relevance for clinical baroreflex assessment in volume-expanded states.
Parati et al. (1987) studied this question.
