OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to clarify the mechanisms of the abnormal systolic blood pressure response after exercise in patients with angina pectoris. BACKGROUND An abnormal systolic blood pressure response in patients with angina pectoris has been observed not only during exercise but also during the recovery period after exercise. However, the mechanisms of this abnormal response during recovery have not been elucidated. METHODS Thirty-five patients with angina pectoris and 17 control subjects underwent bicycle ergometric studies after insertion of a Swan-Ganz catheter. RESULTS In control subjects, all hemodynamic variables decreased rapidly after exercise. In 7 of the 35 patients, systolic blood pressure increased after exercise. The patients with angina were classified into two groups. In group I (17 patients), changes in systolic blood pressure during recovery were smaller than those in control subjects. In group II (18 patients) recovery of systolic blood pressure was normal. Changes in stroke index from rest to peak exercise were smaller in group I than in group II. Stroke index in both patient groups increased paradoxically during recovery. The increase in systemic vascular resistance index during recovery and the ratio of plasma norepinephrine concentration to cumulative work load were greater in group I than in group II. CONCLUSIONS An abnormal systolic blood pressure response after physical exercise in patients with angina pectoris is indicative of severe myocardial ischemia during exercise and may be caused by an increase in stroke volume due to recovery from myocardial ischemia and increased systemic vascular resistance secondary to exaggerated sympathetic nervous activity.

D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D002407 Catheterization, Swan-Ganz Placement of a balloon-tipped catheter into the pulmonary artery through the antecubital, subclavian, and sometimes the femoral vein. It is used to measure pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary artery wedge pressure which reflects left atrial pressure and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. The catheter is threaded into the right atrium, the balloon is inflated and the catheter follows the blood flow through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle and out into the pulmonary artery.
