ABSTRACT
Cardiovascular, metabolic, and thermoregulatory responses were studied in eight male miniature swine during a prolonged treadmill run. Each animal underwent 8-10 wk of exercise training, thoracic surgery, and 3 wk of retraining before the experimental run. This regimen enabled the animals to run at 65% of the heart rate range (210-220 beats/min) for approximately 100 min. Skin wetting and a fan were used to cool the pigs during the run. Regional blood flow was significantly altered with the onset of exercise; however, hindlimb muscle and total gastrointestinal blood flow were unchanged throughout the exercise period. Compared with 5-min values, heart rate and cardiac output were significantly elevated by 17 beats/min and 31 ml.min-1.kg-1 at 60 min and by 20 beats/min and 33 ml.min-1.kg-1 at end exercise, respectively. Core temperatures increased between 5 and 30 min of exercise (39.4 vs. 39.9 degrees C) but then remained unchanged to the end of exercise. Mean arterial pressure, O2 consumption, and blood lactate did not change during the exercise bout. These data indicate that limiting increases in core temperature during prolonged exercise was associated with a plateau in active muscle blood flow.
