| Abstract | The effect of steady-state increases in systemic arterial pressure on the duration of left ventricular ejection time was studied in 11 normal male subjects. Methoxamine, a pressor amine of predominantly vasoconstrictor activity but lacking significant inotropic effect, was administered intravenously resulting in an average increase in mean arterial pressure of 27 mm Hg. Heart rate was held constant by high right atrial pacing, and there was no significant change in cardiac output. During methoxamine infusion, when stroke volume, heart rate, and inotropic state were held constant, left ventricular ejection time increased as mean arterial pressure increased. There was a highly significant correlation between the increase in mean systolic blood pressure and the prolongation of left ventricular ejection time (r = 0.870). In one subject, an increase in mean systolic pressure of 75 mm Hg prolonged left ventricular ejection time 55 msec, producing paradoxical splitting of the second heart sound. The prolongation of left ventricular ejection time during infusion was not blocked by the prior intravenous administration of atropine sulfate or propranolol hydrochloride, thus ruling out both vagal inhibition of the left ventricle and reflex withdrawal of sympathetic tone as its cause. In three subjects, left ventricular end diastolic pressure was measured and found to be significantly increased. This finding suggests that the normal left ventricle maintains a constant stroke volume in the presence of an increased pressure load by the Frank Starling mechanism. This study concludes that arterial pressure must be included as a prime determinant of left ventricular ejection time along with stroke volume, heart rate, and inotropic state in intact man. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
