Does electrical stimulation of the left aortic nerve reduce heart rate in anesthetized rabbits?
In an anesthetized rabbit model, the total number of electrical pulses per cardiac cycle delivered to the aortic nerve is the primary determinant of reflex bradycardia magnitude.
Peterson et al. (1979) studied this question.
