[Changes in microcirculation and respiration in acute intra-abdominal pathology according to electrokymographic data]

Electrokymography was applied for studies of pulmonary circulation and ventilation in 31 patients. A decrease of pulmonary circulation by 23.3% and lung ventilation reduction by 15.6% were found. The disturbance of circulation and ventilation ensues from the changes of microcirculation in acute intraabdominal pathology.
