Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cardiopulmonary reflex on the venous response in skin and muscle areas to exercise. The interaction of cardiopulmonary reflex and exercise caused the constriction of deep vein (muscle area), which was a similar extent during each intervention alone respectively. In addition, superficial vein (skin area) constricted during only exercise, which was masked by the interaction of cardiopulmonary reflex and exercise. However, venous compliance in both veins did not alter during cardiopulmonary reflex and exercise. These results suggest that the contribution of cardiopulmonary reflex to the venous response might differ between skin and muscle areas.
