ABSTRACT
Our experimental study was undertaken to determine the effect of bilateral novocaine vagosympathetic block (VSB) on central hemolymphodynamic and regional hemodinamic in lesser circulation. Follow-up period lasted for 4 hours. No statistically significant arterial pressure changes were detected. Studies of stroke index (SI) and general peripheral vascular resistance (GPVR) changes indentified the development of two responses: (1) a 60% SI decline and PVR increase were accompanied with elevation (mean 37%) of volumetric lymph flow rate within 15-30 min following VSB: (2) there was only a 40% SI elevation and GPVR decline. Rheopulmographic findings detected the reduction of volumetric pulmonary blood flow following VSB, and the decline of both pulmonary tissue-filling and venous bed capacity demonstrated by a significant fall of diastolic wave amplitude within 30 min following VSB. Histologic findings verified the reduction in pulmonary blood-filling following VSB.
