Talk:Bainbridge reflex

Untitled

It was my understanding that the the Bainbridge reflex, though originally thought to be of neural origin, was now considered to be an intrinsic property of the myocytes. Does anybody know either way?

On my opinion you are not right. Because the receptors are of the beginning of reflex arch. And the receptors are kind of neurons, aren´t they? --IoannesM (talk) 22:22, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

I'd second that. It is a reflex and not just an intrinsic property of [cardiac] myocytes. The full pathway is not known. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RBJ (talk • contribs) 22:08, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

My question was... Anyone got a reference to the *not terribly important in humans* comment? Must be loads of literature on it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by RBJ (talk • contribs) 22:11, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia

I have added this: "Bainbridge Reflex is involved in Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia. During inhalation intrathoracic pressure decreases. It triggers increased venous return which is registered by baroreceptors, which via Bainbridge Reflex constantly activates sympathetic nervous system within each inhalation of each respiratory cycle." Can anyone add aproppriate source to this? I found this but I doubt it would be accepted as the appropriate source of information. Unfortunately I am uncapable to find any relevant link. (For quick and easy access to that link use CTRL+F and past "Atrial (Bainbridge) Reflex."

Then you also get the knowledge there are two kinds of receptors involved in this reflex: A and B. they are not mentioned in this article. --IoannesM (talk) 22:59, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

this is a good source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK541017/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Olshevsky (talk • contribs) 08:50, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
