This method can help answer key questions about the autonomic nervous system particularly about the central nervous system mechanisms that regulate sympathetic outflow to the kidney. The main advantage of this technique is that it allows measureme

Methods for measuring sympathetic and cardiovascular responses to central nervous system (CNS) manipulations are important for advancing neuroscience. This protocol was developed to assist scientists with measuring and quantifying acute changes in renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) in anesthetized rats (non-survival).
