[Effect of polyethylene oxide on hemodynamic parameters in infusion therapy of irreversible hemorrhagic shock]

Blood loss in 14 anesthetized cats was completely replaced either by polyglucin (control group) or polyglucin with addition of polyethylene oxide (mol. mass 6x10(6)). Blood of the cats contained 2.6-4.4 x 10(6) g/ml of polyethylene oxide. Its introduction promoted advanced recovery of hemodynamic indices and stimulated systemic oxygen transport.
