[Cardiovascular system in rats with varying resistance to acute hemorrhage]
Abstract:
Ultrasonic and laser doppler flowmetry, biomicroscopy were used in the study of systemic hemodynamics, microcirculation, blood flow in the brain, liver, kidneys and inferior limb in rats varying by resistance to acute blood loss. In the course of bleeding both high- and low-resistant rats (HRR, LRR) had the same decline in blood pressure, blood flow rate and tissue perfusion. When blood loss stopped. HRR developed relative compensation of the above parameters followed by irreversible fall. Posthemorrhagic recovery of these hemodynamic parameters in LRR was not observed. All the LRR showed persistent generalized constriction of hepatic, intestinal and renal microcirculation. Pumping performance of the heart continued to death in all HRR and in 65% of LRR. After stop of hemorrhage, 35% of LRR developed minor cardiac ejection syndrome which was followed by death within 30 min.
