Recording and manipulation of vagus nerve electrical activity in chronically instrumented unanesthetized near term fetal sheep
Aude Castel, Patrick M. Burns, Javier Benito +9
Background: The chronically instrumented pregnant sheep has been used as a model of human fetal development and responses to pathophysiologic stimuli. This is due to the unique ame…
Vagal contributions to fetal heart rate variability: an omics approach
Christophe L. Herry, Patrick Burns, Andre Desrochers +5
Fetal heart rate variability (fHRV) is an important indicator of health and disease, yet its physiological origins, neural contributions in particular, are not well understood. We…
