Peripheral Blood Flow in Experimental Frostbite

Learning the regulation of peripheral blood flow.

Students can learn a great deal about the peripheral circulation when teaching is based on five building blocks: hemodynamic principles, neurohumoral control, and three elements of local control of blood flow (metabolic, myogenic, and paracrine). Study of a particular special circulation starts with the application of these building blocks in the context of the function of that tissue. For exam...

Total and peripheral blood flow in acute myocardial infarction.

Acute cardiac infarction is an event that might be expected to produce sudden left ventricular heart failure. Although circulatory collapse is common when myocardial infarction is extensive, the clinical signs of cardiac failure are not often dramatic. Recently, therapy involving intraarterial or intravenous transfusion of patients with severe shock from myocardial infarction has been used (Eps...
