Cardiac irregularities in cats under halothane anaesthesia.
EXPERIMENTS carried out during the past eighteen months on the effects of halothane on the cardiovascular system of cats may throw further light on some aspects of the work of Ravent6s and Dee (1959) on cats anaesthetized with azeotropic mixtures of halothane and ether. This brief summary of the relevant results has, therefore, been prepared. It is hoped that a more detailed account of the inve...
متن کاملAbnormalities of left ventricular contraction induced by beta adrenergic blockade.
To understand better the hemodynamic effects caused by propranolol, its effect on the geometry of left ventricular contraction was studied in ten subjects, four with angiographic evidence of coronary artery disease and six without demonstrable heart disease. Heart rate was controlled in four subjects with right atrial pacing. After 5 mg of intravenous propranolol, there were decreases in heart ...
متن کاملRight ventricular performance in essential hypertension after beta-blockade.
Recent studies indicate that right ventricular performance is impaired even in uncomplicated systemic hypertension. Because of widespread use of beta-blockade in essentially hypertension, it is possible that such treatment often further depresses right ventricular contractility. To test this premise, and to evaluate the changes induced by different beta-adrenoceptor blocking agents on the contr...
متن کاملHaemodynamic interactions of high-dose propranolol pretreatment and anaesthesia in the dog. II: The effects of acute arterial hypoxaemia at increasing depths of halothane anaesthesia.
Beta-adrenergic blockade may impair the normal cardiovascular response to hypoxia occurring during general anaesthesia. The haemodynamic effects of acute hypoxia, induced by a 90-s period of ventilation with nitrogen, were studied during increasing depths of halothane anaesthesia up to a maximum of 2.5% inspired halothane in dogs chronically implanted with intracardiac catheters, a left-ventric...
متن کاملHalothane anaesthesia in turkeys.
An anaesthetic technique employing halothane in oxygen for use in adult turkeys is described. The mixture was administered using a Magill attachment and a Hall cat mask. Induction was rapid and excitement-free. Anaesthesia was maintained for varying periods of time up to a maYimnm of 80 minutes. Recovery was rapid. In a total of twenty-five turkeys no deaths occurred which were attributable to ...
