High-Yield Explanation
Activation of chemosensitive vagal C fibers in the cardiopulmonary region (eg, the juxtacapillary region of alveoli, ventricles, atria, great veins, and pulmonary aery) causes profound bradycardia, hypotension, and a brief period of apnea followed by rapid shallow breathing. This response pattern is called the Bezold-Jarisch reflex and was named after the individuals who first repoed these findings. This reflex can be elicited by a variety of substances including capsaicin, serotonin, phenylbiguanide, and veratridine. And not related to hypeension
