CURRICULUM Vol. I
PHARMACOLOGY (CODE: PH)
NUMBER -PH4.2
Specific Learning Objectives
At the end of the practical class, the student shall be able to:
1. Explain the effect of drugs acting on the autonomic nervous
system on blood pressure and heart rate.
2. Identify an unknown drug using these two parameters and
its interaction with other known drugs
Note: This experiment is demonstrated using ExPharm - a
computer simulation software programme designed and
produced by Dr. R. Raveendran.

Introduction to Program
• The animal (mongrel dog) has been anesthetized
and set up.
• Left side carotid artery is cannulated and
connected to a blood pressure recorder. Heart
rate is monitored and recorded.
• Drugs are injected into the femoral vein through
a cannula and washed in with a small volume of
saline.
• The recordings of blood pressure and heart rate
are indicated in black and red respectively.
