The role of venous pressure in regulation of output from the heart of the Octopus, Eledone Cirrhosa (Lam.)

1. The influence of perfusion pressure on stroke volume and heart rate was examined in the isolated ventricle. Input pressure, within the physiological range (10-20 cm of water), had a direct effect upon stroke volume and heart rate. Output back pressure had an inverse effect upon stroke volume and...
