Hypotension during Bromotrifluoromethane Exposure

Abstract

Cardiac output and mean arterial blood pressure measurements were performed on anesthetized dogs during exposure to bromotrifluoromethane. Left ventricular end diastolic pressure was recorded from anesthetized open-chested dogs and monkeys during exposure to CBrF3. A significant decrease in total peripheral resistance and myocardial contractility were shown to combine to produce a reversible hypotension during exposure to CBrF3.
