No immediate clinical implications from this animal model; leaves open sympathetic mediation of LVEDP responses in humans.
During carotid occlusion, increased myocardial contractility occurs, which is mediated by sympathetic pathways and associated with increased myocardial utilization and release of catecholamines.
Gilmore et al. (1964) studied this question.
