Abstract:
The article deals with hemodynamic shifts that occur during the development of high-altitude pulmonary edema in rabbits. The principal hemodynamic disturbances occur in pulmonary circulation, while the main functional lead falls within the right heart. It was concluded that the increased pulmonary blood content and elevated pulmonary circulation pressure play a certain pathogenetic role in the origin of the syndrome under consideration.
