Animal data show differential isoflurane effects on baroreflex components; leaves open translation to human anesthesia practice.
Does isoflurane alter the baroreceptor reflex in dogs?
Isoflurane alters the baroreceptor reflex at multiple sites, but significant depression of the cardiac chronotropic component occurs only at higher concentrations (2.6%).
Seagard et al. (1983) studied this question.
