Abstract
The effect of feedback-controlled electrical carotid sinus nerve stimulation on changes in blood pressure and heart rate during interventions simulating usual daily activity was studied in four anginal patients. Frequency or amplitude of stimulation was modulated pulse-synchronously and controlled by heart rate. While individual responses differed between both types of modulation, stimulation attenuated predominantly increases in blood pressure during walking and staircase climbing. Heart rate changes remained almost unaffected.
