Objective: In our previous investigations it was shown that dilatation of magistral arteries (MA) after arterial occlusion (AO) occurs only after the restoration of free blood flow and manifests as an increment of blood flow in the beginning of reactive hyperemia (RH). The aim of this study was to examine whether the increased transmural pressure (Ptransm.) can modulate dilatation reaction of MA after AO.

Design and methods: The investigation was performed on 12 healthy subjects aged between 28–40 yrs. Dilation of MA was appraised from changes in blood flow (I) and haemodynamic resistance (R) in the forearm during RH in two different situations - after 7 min. AO and after 7 min. AO with previous venous congestion (VC). Forearm I was determined by venous occlusion plethysmography. R was calculated from data on I and mean arterial pressure. Systemic arterial pressure was determined auscultatory.

Results: VC before AO of 7 min. abolished the increment of blood flow during RH - maximal I and minimal R was observed just after restoration of free blood flow and normalisation rate of I and R was more rapid than that after 7 min. AO. Maximal I was greater after 7 min. AO with previous VC than that after 7 min. AO (42±1,4 and 33±1,6 ml/100cm3/min., correspondingly) and minimal R was smaller after 7 min. AO with previous VC than that after 7 min. AO (2,25±0,1 and 2,7±0,2 PRU100, correspondingly).

Conclusion: The increase of Ptransm. changes a patern of dilatation reaction of forearm magistral arteries.
