[Dynamics of microcirculatory system recovery in the post-stress period]

Twenty-four-hour immobilization or electric stimulation for 6 h were used in rats as stressors. The first stressor caused more profound and protracted disturbances in the microcirculatory system. The recovery of the microcirculation occurred in 50% of animals by day 6 and in 100% by day 14 after immobilization. The terminal blood flow recovery after 6-hour electric stimulation was seen in a day. Vascular permeability after 24-hour immobilization returned to normal in 24 h, and after 6 h of electric stimulation in 6 h. This process correlated with the morphofunctional status of mast cells and was probably phasic in nature.
