Abstract
Summary
Two experiments are reported in which regional blood flow under controlled perfusion pressure was being measured by direct means along with systemic blood pressure and in which Traube-Hering waves were seen to occur. Rhythmic changes in the regional blood flow were observed which were synchronous with but opposite in direction to the changes in systemic blood pressure. This agrees with the conventional view that changes in blood pressure in this situation are secondary to changes in peripheral resistance.
