Definition of the temporal characteristics of cardiovascular rhythms is of scientific interest. This article reviews the literature on the rhythmic pattern of some cardiovascular parameters in domestic animals, providing greater understanding of general chronobiological processes in mammals. The techniques of the chronophysiological studies have been applied in domestic species to determine the existence of periodicity in the cardiovascular functions. Detailed knowledge of these rhythms is useful for clinical, practical and pharmacological purposes and physical performances.
