Abstract

The cardiovascular effects of elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure were studied in 18 dogs, 6 in a control group, 6 after alpha adrenergic blockade, and 6 after beta adrenergic blockade. Vascular pressures did not change until CSF pressure was increased from 100 mm Hg to 200 mm Hg.
