In anaesthetized kittens the mean arterial pressure and the pulse pressure double during the first 6 weeks of life; the heart rates recorded were the same as in the adult cat and did not change during this period. The vasomotor sympathetic system was active within 4 days of birth: there was both tonic activity, as demonstrated by a rise in arterial pressure after carotid occlusion, and a rise in pressure during asphyxia; the carotid sinus-cardiac centre mechanism responded to a rise in arterial pressure at birth. All these responses increased with age but had not reached adult activity by the 6th week of life. The carotid sinus-cardiac centre mechanism did not respond to a fall in blood pressure until 4 weeks of age. The infant heart was apparently more sensitive to the direct action of acetylcholine and the peripheral blood vessels relatively less sensitive than in the adult.
