Uterine hemodynamics and fetal response to vena caval occlusion in sheep.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present experiments should show if vena caval occlusion (V. C. O.) results in a decrease in uterine blood flow and increase in uterine vascular resistance (UVR). We are further interested to know, if V. C. O. influences fetal heart rate (FHR) and fetal blood pressure (BP).

Early changes in prostaglandin concentrations in ovine maternal and fetal plasma, amniotic fluid and from dispersed cells of intrauterine tissues before the onset of ACTH-induced pre-term labour.
The changes with time in intrauterine tissue production and concentrations of PGE-2, PGF-2 alpha, 6-keto PGF-1 alpha and PGFM (13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGF-2 alpha) in maternal and fetal plasma and amniotic fluid were investigated during the first 72 h of pulsatile administration of ACTH1-24 to chronically catheterized fetal sheep. By 72 h there were no changes in the frequency, maximum amplitude ...
متن کاملEffects of tachycardia on regional wall motion in acute ischemic canine heart.
Tachycardia accompanies the preload reduction. Our aim is to assess the effect of the heart rate change on wall motion in ischemic heart. In 8 dogs with occlusion of left anterior descending artery, we changed the heart rate (heart rate 90, 120, and 150 beats/minute) after using UL-FS49, a selective bradycardic agent, with atrial pacing. Preload was changed by inferior vena caval occlusion at a...
متن کاملEndogenous prostanoids modulate the ACTH and AVP responses to hypotension in late-gestation fetal sheep.
We have previously reported that prostaglandin E2 and thromboxane A2 stimulate endocrine and cardiovascular responses similar to the responses to arterial hypotension. The present experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that prostanoids are involved in the generation of responses to hypotension induced by vena cava occlusion. Fetal sheep were either intact or subjected to a prior carot...
متن کاملRegulation of uterine immune function during the estrous cycle and in response to infectious bacteria in sheep.
Uterine infections are a major reproductive problem in livestock. We conducted two experiments to investigate factors that may modulate uterine responses to infectious bacteria. In Exp. 1, ewes received intrauterine inoculations of either saline or bacteria (75 x 10(7) cfu of Actinomyces pyogenes and 35 x 10(7) cfu of Escherichia coli) on either d 0 or 7 of the estrous cycle. Vena caval samples...
متن کاملI-46: Obstetrical Doppler
Accurate assessment of gestational age, fetal growth, and the detection of fetal and placental abnormalities are major benefits of sonography. Color Doppler can be used to assist in the identification of vascular architecture, detection of vascular pathology and visualization of blood flow changes associated with physiologic processes and disease states. The clinical applications of obstetrical...
