Percutaneous measurement of portal blood flow in the piglet by continuous thermodilution. 1985

P Bauret, and D Mirouze, and P Bories, and J Thuile, and J L Rique, and G Marchal, and H Michel

The continuous thermodilution method was applied to the percutaneous measurement of portal blood flow in the piglet by inserting a thermodilution probe into the portal vein via the transhepatic transvenous route. The method was compared to electromagnetic flowmetry in three piglets; the two methods yielded statistically identical results. The coefficient of variation of the continuous thermodilution measurements was 4%. The method allows portal blood flow measurements that are instantaneous, reliable, reproducible, and repetitive. It was applied to a study of rapid flow variations in piglets receiving an infusion of posterior pituitary extract.

D012212 Rheology The study of the deformation and flow of matter, usually liquids or fluids, and of the plastic flow of solids. The concept covers consistency, dilatancy, liquefaction, resistance to flow, shearing, thixotrophy, and VISCOSITY. Flowmetry,Velocimetry,Velocimetries
D013552 Swine Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).

D013815 Thermodilution Measurement of blood flow based on induction at one point of the circulation of a known change in the intravascular heat content of flowing blood and detection of the resultant change in temperature at a point downstream. Thermodilutions
D014020 Tissue Extracts Preparations made from animal tissues or organs (ANIMAL STRUCTURES). They usually contain many components, any one of which may be pharmacologically or physiologically active. Tissue extracts may contain specific, but uncharacterized factors or proteins with specific actions. Extracts, Tissue
