Quantitative Indicies of the Shock Syndrome

Abstract

Two forms of experimental shock were investigated - hemorrhagic and bacterial endotoxemia - in the dog, cat and rabbit. In addition to measurement of central arterial pressure, central venous pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, plasma pO2, pCO2 and pH, blood hematocrit, and plasma colloid osmotic pressure, observations were carried out on the microcirculation of the mesentery and omentum.
