[The anti-edematous effect of the preparation polyosm in acute hypertensive encephalopathy]

Experiments were conducted on Wistar rats to study the effect of intravenous infusion of polyosm (solution of polyethyleneoxide 400) on the parameters of brain tissue edema-swelling (according to impedancemetry findings) and the local cerebral blood flow on a model of acute hypertensive encephalopathy. Under such conditions the drug hastened involution of edema-swelling of the brain tissue and prevented a decrease in cerebral blood flow.
