Introduction: This section gives a brief introduction to the concepts covered in the package

Experimental Setup: This section outlines the methods used to anaesthetise and prepare a rat for injecting drugs, the methods used to record blood pressure and heart rate and the methods used for stimulating autonomic nerves in the laboratory.

The next two sections take the form of a guided experiment, allowing the student to stimulate nerves or inject transmitters and blockers, displaying the results as a trace of heart rate and blood pressure. A summary is available for each experimental section.

The Parasympatheic ANS: This section is split into two modules, introductory and extended. The introductory module guides the student through Vagus Nerve stimulation and injection of Acetylcholine, the extended module includes the use of blockers to distinguish receptor types.

The Sympathetic ANS: This section is again split into introductory and extended modules. The introductory module includes injection of Adrenaline and Noradrenaline compared to stimulation of the Cardiac Nerve, while the extended module distinguishes between adrenoceptor types by the use of blockers.
