Notes:
1. Blood pressure, heart rate and cardiac output were studied in intact conscious sheep during AVP infusion at 0.1, 0.25, 0.5 and 10 μg/min for 30 minutes to determine whether pressor responsiveness to AVP was altered in ACTH-induced hypertension.2. Prior to ACTH treatment, AVP produced rises in blood pressure associated with a fall in heart rate and cardiac output.3. During ACTH treatment, pressor responsiveness to AVP and decrease in cardiac output were unchanged, but reflex bradycardia was reduced.4. ACTH-induced hypertension in sheep is not associated with enhanced pressor responsiveness to AVP.
