The influence of ethyl alcohol on cerebro-spinal fluid pressure
Anaesthesia
|September 1, 1976
Abstract:
The effect of ethanol on the cerebro-spinal fluid pressure of six baboons is described. A biphasic response is shown to the intravenous infusion with a mean pressure fall of 3.1 mmHg. It is suggested that both the diuretic effect and the effect of alcohol on cerebral blood flow may be factors involved in the pressure fall.
