Intersystem Relationships of Respiration and Hemodynamics in the Initial Period of Postural Effects

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

We studied the dependence of parameters of lung volumes and the elastic properties of the lungs on changes in the central hemodynamics occurring in the initial period of passive postural changes in cats. It was found that transition from the horizontal to head-up and head-down tilting was accompanied by opposite hemodynamic changes in the cranial and caudal parts of the body. Changes in lung compliance and functional residual capacity of the lungs were opposite and linearly depended on the intensity of hemodynamic shifts, which indicates passive character of the primary disorders primarily determined by a physical factor, gravity-dependent redistribution of body fluids.
