Microcirculatory response to fluid challenge: should we prefer balanced colloids to rebalance tissue perfusion?

When Should We Prefer Tort Law to Environmental Regulation ? Keith

This paper, prepared for the 2001 Washburn Torts Seminar, argues that tort law has some properties that make it superior to statute-based regulatory schemes as a system of environmental protection. In particular, two arguments, one based on enforcer-malfeasance and one based on information, suggest that tort law is preferable to statutory regulation. I sketch these arguments and apply them to n...

Use of near-infrared spectroscopy during a vascular occlusion test to assess the microcirculatory response during fluid challenge

INTRODUCTION Adequate volume expansion (VE) in patients with evidence of hypoperfusion should be aimed not only at achieving an increase in stroke volume (SV) and cardiac index (CI) but also at improved tissue perfusion and oxygenation. Our aim in this study was to assess the dynamic changes in muscle tissue oxygen saturation (StO₂) during hypovolaemia and in response to VE. METHODS We conduc...

Do We Know What We Do not Know? A Response to Celine Bonnet

Local microcirculatory reflexes and afferent signalling in response to gastric acid challenge.

The gastrointestinal tract is innervated by extrinsic primary aVerent neurones which arise from two diVerent sources. Spinal aVerents originate in the dorsal root ganglia whereas vagal aVerents have their cell bodies in the nodose ganglia. Most of the spinal aVerents which supply the stomach and intestine of rodents contain neuropeptides such as calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) and the ta...
