Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of dopamine infusion and dopamine-2
receptor blockade on pulmonary capillary blood volume, diffusion, and the hemodynamic
variables of pulmonary artery pressure, cardiac output, and pulmonary vascular resistance
during exercise. Secondarily, this study will examine the effect of dopamine infusion and
dopamine-2 receptor blockade on exercise tolerance.
