Does full cardiac autonomic blockade attenuate dynamic cerebral autoregulation during acute hypotension in healthy subjects?
The cardiac baroreflex plays an important role in maintaining dynamic cerebral autoregulation during acute hypotension in healthy humans.
Ogoh et al. (2009) studied this question.
