Increased prostacyclin and adverse hemodynamic responses to protamine sulfate in an experimental canine model
(Elsevier, 1991-05)
Prostanoid activity was correlated with the hemodynamic effects of protamine sulfate reversal of heparin in 24 dogs undergoing three different pretreatment regimens: Group I (n = 8) received saline, Group II (n = 8) received ...
Comparative hemodynamic effects of selective superior mesenteric arterial and peripheral intravenous glucagon infusions
(Elsevier, 1985-09)
This experiment was designed to determine whether any hemodynamic benefits attend administration of equal pharmacologic doses of glucagon (1 [mu]g/kg/m) by continuous intravenous infusion (Group I, n = 6) versus selective ...
Predictors of postoperative outcome after general surgical procedures in patients with congenital heart disease
(Elsevier, 1994-07)
This study was undertaken to evaluate factors predictive of postoperative outcome after general surgical (GS) procedures in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). All patients with a diagnosis of CHD who underwent ...
Interaction of hindlimb blood flow, A-V shunting and A-V oxygen difference
(Elsevier, 1984-03)
The interactions of blood flow, A-V O2 difference (AVDO2), and A-V shunting were measured in normal hindlimbs of nine anesthetized dogs. An aorto-iliac nonpulsatile perfusion pump was used to change femoral artery blood ...
Hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass: A comparison between alpha and pH stat regulation in the dog
(Elsevier, 1987-01)
The accepted normal pH of 7.40 may not be optimal at lower temperatures. This study evaluated the effect of maintaining pH in the accepted normal range at hypothermia (group 1, pH stat) or at normothermia (group 2, alpha ...
A True Aneurysm of the Profunda Femoris Artery: A Case Report and Review of the English Language Literature
(Springer-Verlag; Annals of Vascular Surgery Inc., 2004-11)
A rare case of true aneurysm of the profunda femoris artery (PFA) is reported. Surgical management consisted of ligation of the aneurysm and decompression of the sac. Presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of true PFA ...
Effects of thromboxane synthetase inhibition on patency and anastomotic hyperplasia of vascular grafts
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
The efficacy of a thromboxane synthetase inhibitor (U-63,557A, Upjohn) in promoting early patency and inhibiting anastomotic intimal hyperplasia in ePTFE grafts was compared to that of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in a canine ...
Absence of complement-mediated events after protamine reversal of heparin anticoagulation
(Elsevier, 1991-07)
Protamine reversal of heparin anticoagulation is associated with adverse hemodynamic effects that may be attenuated with protamine pretreatment (PP). This study assesses the role of complement activation during these ...
