چکیده
The Effects of Intra-Arterial Histamine on Blood Flow in the Internal and External Carotid Artery of Man • Both internal and external carotid artery phasic blood flow and arterial pressure were measured in five patients during a control period and after the intra-arterial injection of 13.8 fig of histamine phosphate into each vessel. In the internal carotid artery, flow for the group increased almost immediately and reached a maximum value of 59% greater than control in ten seconds. The total duration of the response in both pressure and flow lasted approximately one minute. The injection of histamine into the external carotid artery elicited a much more marked response, having a maximum increase in flow of 294% for the group with a total duration of the response lasting two and one-half to three minutes. These data define the magnitude and time course of the action of histamine phosphate on the intracranial and extracranial circulation in man. Additional

متن کاملPresentation of a Non-invasive Method of Estimating Arterial Stiffness by Modeling Blood Flow and Arterial Wall Based on the Determination of Elastic Module of Arterial Wall
Introduction: Arterial stiffness is an important predictor of cardiovascular risk. Several indices have been introduced to estimate the arterial stiffness based on the changes in the brachial blood pressure. Since the substitution of the blood pressure changes in the central arteries such as carotid with the blood pressure changes in the brachial results in error in the blood...
متن کاملA Lumped Parameter Method to Calculate the Effect of Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion on Anterior Cerebral Artery Pressure Waveform
Background and Objective: Numerical modeling of biological structures would be very helpful tool to analyze hundreds of human body phenomena and also diseases diagnosis. One physiologic phenomenon is blood circulatory system and heart hemodynamic performance that can be simulated by utilizing lumped method. In this study, we can predict hemodynamic behavior of one artery of circulatory system (...
متن کاملMeasuring the Nitroglycerine-Induced Vasodilation in Carotid Arteries
Introduction: Nitroglycerin is a fast-acting drug that rapidly dilates coronary arteries and thus increases blood flow to these vessels, and increases the blood flow through the lateral vessels to low blood areas. It also reduces both end diastolic pressure and volume of the left ventricular. However, the effect of nitroglycerin on the circulation hemodynamic is not known. Caro...
متن کاملAssessing the intima-media thickness and Young modulus changes of the common carotid artery in the neck region external radiotherapy based on the processing of ultrasonic images
Since it is too vital to the prevention of carotid disease in the vascular system, it seems necessary to the estimation of the elastic behavior of the carotid artery in head and neck external radiotherapy. In the present study, a total of 24 neck carcinoma patients treated with external radiotherapy had been studied. The carotid mean dose values were determined for each case by contouring the c...
