Summary
A technique for hepatic blood-flow determinations is described The hepatic artery blood flow was found to have some degree of independence of the arterial blood pressure, while the portal flow followed systemic circulatory changes Trauma to the liver, metabolic acidosis, or total sympathetic block depressed hepatic artery blood flow Carbon dioxide, epinephrine, or norepmephrine increased the hepatic artery blood flow, however, this effect was related to their systemic circulatory changes Several factors decieased portal oxygen saturation
Résumé L’auteur décrit une technique de détermination des débits sangums hépatiques Tandis que le débit de l’artère hépatique semblait être indépendant de la pression artérielle, celui de la veine porte suivait les variations circulatoires systémiques
Les tiaumatismes au foie, l’acidose métabolique, le blocage complet du système sympathique diminuaient le débit de l’artère hépatique Le bioxyde de carbone en l’absence d’acidose métabolique, l’épinéphrine, la norépméphrine augmentaient le débit de l’artère hépatique, cependant il faut rattacher ce dernier effet à leurs changements circulatoires systémiques Parmi les nombreux facteurs diminuant la saturation en oxygène du sang porte; la diminution du débit sanguin dans la veine porte était le plus important
