Determination of regional and central circulation times by the ascorbate dilution method.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The usefulness of the ascorbate dilution method in demonstrating intracardiac shunts and valvular incompetence is known. The ascorbate technique can also be applied to the determination of the transit time of regional vascular beds such as the coronary and the renal systems. Furthermore, the determination of central circulation times may be helpful in the diagnosis of caval obstruction. The method is safe, simple, inexpensive, and reliable.

Study of the models of large-scale atmospheric circulation system model on intesify rainfall in Ardebil plain
Atmospheric circulation is important to determine the surface climate and environment, and affect regional climate and surface features. In this study, to quantify its effect, the classification system, developed by Lamb is applied to obtain circulation information for Ardabil, North West Province in Iran, on a daily basis, and is a method to classify synoptic weather for study area. For that p...
متن کاملMeasurement of cardiac output and central volume by a modified decholin test of circulation time.
A technic is described for determining mean circulation time, cardiac output, and central blood volume by use of graded dosages of sodium dehydrocholate (Decholin) administered into a peripheral vein. The indicator-dilution curves derived by the technic were compared with radiopotas-sium-dilution curves obtained simultaneously in 12 patients. The results showed a surprisingly good agreement bet...
متن کاملThe Use of Ascorbate Dilution Curves
AT THE PRESENT time, indicator-dilution curves are one of the most important technics employed in the investigation of the circulation. The earliest of these studies were carried out by the rapid serial collections of blood samples and their subsequent photometric analysis.' This ingenious but cumbersome method was replaced by the continuous withdrawal of blood in front of a photoelectric cell,...
متن کاملDetection of early central circulatory transits in patients with cirrhosis by gamma variate fit of indicator dilution profiles.
Patients with cirrhosis have hyperdynamic circulation with abnormally distributed blood volume and widespread arteriovenous communications. We aimed to detect possible very early (i.e., before 4 s) and early (i.e., after 4 s) central circulatory transits and their potential influence on determination of central and arterial blood volume (CBV). Thirty-six cirrhotic patients and nineteen controls...
متن کاملPreventing ascorbate interference in ion-chromatographic determinations of urinary oxalate: four methods compared.
In an attempt to decrease ascorbate interference on the ion-chromatographic determination of urinary oxalate, we compared the effectiveness of four different methods for ascorbate elimination by analyzing a representative urine pool supplemented with successive ascorbate additions. Two of the methods--treatment with ferric ions or boric acid--have been described elsewhere; treatments with nitri...
