Abstract
Summary
Myelinated sympathetic afferent fibers with conduction velocities in the AS range arising from receptors located within the left ventricle responded to acute coronary artery occlusion with an increase in activity. The increase in activity was over 100% above control levels of activity. The increase in afferent nerve activity was directly related to an increase in left ventricular segmental length produced by acute coronary artery occlusion.
