INFLUENCE OF GENERAL CHILLING AND HIBERNATION ON THE RESTORATION OF VITAL FUNCTIONS IN ANIMALS AFTER CLINICAL DEATH DUE TO ACUTE LOSS OF BLOOD,

Abstract

Conclusions: If the terminal state in the animal develops against a background of hibernation or combined hibernation and hypothermia, subsequent restoration of the vital functions by means of arterial infusion is difficult, and even becomes impossible in a number of cases. Lowered or nullified effectiveness of arterial blood infusion on development of the terminal state under the conditions of hibernation can be accounted for by inactivation of the nervous mechanisms regulating the cardiovascular system under the influence of the neuroplegic preparations. The detrimental effect of the hibernation mixture might also be linked to an aggravating effect of the lytic preparations on the profound inhibition of the central and vegetative nervous systems that prevails in extreme stages of mortification, with the result that the resuscitation process becomes more difficult.
