We investigated the change of optic nerve head blood flow (ONHBF) and choroidal blood flow (CBF) in response to noradrenaline (NA) intravenously administered in anesthetized cats. NA (0.03, 0.1, 0.3 micrograms/kg/min) was injected 5 minutes continuously via the femoral vein. The relative blood flow and systemic blood pressure were continuously measured before and after NA administration with fundus camera-based laser Doppler flowmetry. Systemic blood pressure increased by 6%, 42% and 48% according to the dose. The changes in ONHBF after NA administration were -1.4 +/- 3.5% (mean +/- standard deviation) with 0.03 micrograms/kg/min, 2.4 +/- 6.9% with 0.1 micrograms/kg/min, -2.2 +/- 4.4% with 0.3 micrograms/kg/min, respectively. It did not change significantly despite doses of NA. CBF did not change significantly with 0.03 micrograms/kg/min. CBF increased significantly by 62.7 +/- 65.4% with 0.1 micrograms/kg/min, and 80.4 +/- 73.1% with 0.3 micrograms/kg/min. These results suggest that ONHBF is autoregulated despite the change of perfusion pressure by NA administration. This response is different from that of CBF. |
