Reflex Effects of Pulmonary Venous Congestion: Role of Vagal Afferents

K Ravi and CT Kappagoda

The rapidly adapting receptors of the lung are stimulated by changes in extravascular fluid space of the large airways. The natural stimulus to these receptors appears to be a fluid flux from the vasculature. These receptors are probably involved in certain reflexes associated with left ventricular dysfunction.
