Continuous infusion indicator dilution measurement of limb blood flow and vascular response to magnesium sulfate in normotensive and hypertensive men

Abstract

A constant infusion, indicator dilution technique for blood flow measurements in the forearm and hand of man was tested and validated in vitro and in vivo. This technique employs jet injection to improve mixing of indicator with arterial blood. The mixing characteristics of the jet injection system were studied in vitro in tubing simulating the brachial artery of man. In addition, actual blood flows in the isolated pump-perfused forelimbs of five dogs were compared with constant infusion, indicator dilution calculated flows. Measurements were also made of mixing and of blood flow in the forearm and hand of man. The technique was used to compare forearm and hand vascular responses with constant intrabrachial arterial infusions of magnesium sulfate in 13 normotensive and 13 essential hypertensive men.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.

Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
