Excess intravascular coagulation complicating low cardiac output.

Cardiac output and systemic transit time dispersion as determinants of circulatory mixing time: a simulation study.

A new approach to characterize the kinetics of intravascular mixing process is presented. The mixing time, defined as the time required for achieving 95% homogeneity, is calculated by numerical simulations using a circulatory model applied to the intravascular marker indocyanine green (ICG). The results suggest that the mixing time is determined by cardiac output and the relative dispersion of ...

Widespread bone infarction complicating meningococcal septicaemia and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Thrombin-induced disseminated intravascular coagulation. III:Modification by dextran infusion.

The cardiorespiratory effects of thrombin-induced disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) were studied in two groups of dogs. The main changes were a reduction in cardiac output and arterial pressure, an increase in pulmonary artery pressure and, an increase in pulmonary artery pressure and an increase in venous admixture. In one group of dogs the reduction in cardiac output was diminished...

Patchy Small Bowel Ischaemia Secondary to Sepsis

Insufficient blood perfusion to the small bowel may result from arterial occlusion by embolus or thrombosis, thrombosis of the venous system, or non-occlusive processes such as vasospasm or low cardiac output. Patterns of segmental, skipped, or patchy small bowel ischaemia have been reported post abdominal aortic aneurysm repair and is thought to imply that microembolisation has played an impor...
