Volume expansion often ameliorates symptoms of orthostatic intolerance; however, the influence of this increased volume on integrated baroreflex control of vascular sympathetic activity is unknown. We tested whether acute increases in central venous pressure (CVP) diminished subsequent responsiveness of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) to rapid changes in arterial pressure. We studied healthy humans under three separate conditions: control, acute 10 head-down tilt (HDT), and saline infusion (SAL). In each condition, heart rate, arterial pressure, CVP, and peroneal MSNA were measured during 5 min of rest and then during rapid changes in arterial pressure induced by sequential boluses of nitroprusside and phenylephrine ( modified Oxford technique). Sensitivities of integrated baroreflex control of MSNA and heart rate were assessed as the slopes of the linear portions of the MSNA-diastolic blood pressure and R-R interval-systolic pressure relations, respectively. CVP increased similar to2 mmHg in both SAL and HDT conditions. Resting heart rate and mean arterial pressure were not different among trials. Sensitivity of baroreflex control of MSNA was decreased in both SAL and HDT condition, respectively: similar to3.1+/-0.6 and similar to3.3+/-1.0 versus similar to5.0+/-0.6 units.beat(-1).mmHg(-1) (P<0.05 for SAL and HDT vs. control). Sensitivity of baroreflex control of the heart was not different among conditions. Our results indicate that small increases in CVP decrease the sensitivity of integrated baroreflex control of sympathetic nerve activity in healthy humans.
