Blood Pressure in Salt-Sensitive Dahl Rats Data

Description

The bp_rats data set includes arterial blood pressure waveform time series data of the SS(n = 9) and SS.13 (n = 6) genetic strains of Dahl rats sampled at 100 Hz who were each administered a low and high salt diet. It is taken from the study of Bugenhagen et al.(2010) which sought to investigate the origins of the baroreflex dysfunction in salt-sensitive Dahl rats on Hypertension.

Usage

bp_rats

Format

A data frame containing 5 variables pertaining to arterial continuous waveform blood pressure as follows:

rat_type

The type of a particular Dahl Rat (either SS or SSBN13) corresponding to the sodium intake administered:

ss_hs = SS rat given the high sodium diet
ss_ls = SS rat given the low sodium diet
ssbn13_hs = SSBN13 rat given the high sodium diet
ssbn13_ls = SSBN13 rat given the low sodium diet

rat_ID

ID # corresponding to a particular rat. There are 9 SS rats and 6 SSBN13 rats.

ABP

Continuous waveform data of each rat's arterial (blood) pressure sampled at 100 Hz.

time_sec

Amount of time elapsed, expressed in seconds

time_min

Amount of time elapsed, expressed in minutes
