Atrial peptide release after hemorrhage in unanesthetized swine

Hemorrhage of 14 ml/kg in 5 min was done in two groups of chronically prepared, splenectomized Yorkshire pigs. Group 1 was studied on post-operative day 4 and was conditioned behaviorally with "active restraint", whereas group 2 was studied on postoperative day 6 and was conditioned with behavioral "shaping." The peak decrease in blood volume occurred by 0.25 h after hemorrhage in both groups. However, plasma atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) as measured by radioimmunoassay did not decrease significantly until 2 h in group 1 and 0.5 h in group 2 even though the recovery of blood volume was significantly more rapid in group 1 than in group 2. The responses of ANF differed significantly between groups, suggesting that ANF release after hemorrhage is influenced by prior handling and the time for recovery from surgery. In both groups, some pigs showed increases in ANF during the 1st h after hemorrhage, and changes in ANF were unrelated to decreases in central venous pressure or absolute right atrial volume determined with a conductance catheter. In contrast, changes in ANF after hemorrhage correlated positively with several variables including atrial rate and changes in vasopressin. Multiple regression suggested that the effect of reduced atrial volume on ANF release was opposed by these latter variables or related factors. Furthermore, known actions of ANF do not appear to account for the observed hemodynamic and hormonal responses to hemorrhage.
