Autonomic mechanisms in the initial heart rate response to standing.
Autonomic mechanisms underlying the initial heart rate response to standing were analyzed in nine normal subjects. The normal pattern of response was altered by atropine to a small and gradual R-R interval shortening over 30 beats, with no rebound R-R interval lengthening. With additional propranolol, R-R interval shortening was even less and confined to the first 15-20 beats, whereas propranolol alone did not affect the normal response pattern, showing that this is under vagal control with increased cardiac sympathetic activity occurring only if the vagus is blocked. The response was reproducible in 23 normal subjects. Heart rate variation during quiet standing was almost completely abolished by atropine, but unaffected by propranolol, confirming that it is also under vagal control. In four normal subjects no rebound R-R interval lengthening occurred during either "fast" or "slow" tilt, whereas it was present during both "slow" and "fast" standing. The rebound R-R interval lengthening is determined by the muscular activity involved in standing up, rather than by the speed of the maneuver.
