Abstract
The marked increase in pulse rate produced by administration of small doses of atropine is without influence on the minute volume of the circulation in the normal unanesthetized dog.
A moderate increase of the carbon dioxide in the inspired air (3 to 5 per cent) does not change the minute volume, while breathing higher concentrations causes, if anything, a slight decrease.
