Measurement of blood pressure in unrestrained rats. 1977

A R Ross

A method that allows continuous recroding of blood pressure in rats and other small animals is described. Surgical, recording, calibration, and catheter construction techniques are explained. The techniques allow blood pressure recording from free-roving rats for relatively long periods of time but do not require complicated maintenance procedures to insure catheter patency.

D001795 Blood Pressure Determination Techniques used for measuring BLOOD PRESSURE. Blood Pressure Determinations,Determination, Blood Pressure
D002404 Catheterization Use or insertion of a tubular device into a duct, blood vessel, hollow organ, or body cavity for injecting or withdrawing fluids for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. It differs from INTUBATION in that the tube here is used to restore or maintain patency in obstructions. Cannulation,Cannulations,Catheterizations
