[Contractility of the left ventricle in experimental septicemia]. 1976

B Gay, and K Trenkel, and T Hockerts, and H P Bruch, and R Arbogast, and B Höcht

In experimental septicemia a decrease of myocardial contractility could be demonstrated. Periodically a correlation between disturbance of contractility and endotoxinemia exists. Starting point of infection and type of bacteria were of no detectable influence. As far as the disturbance of contractility is concerned one must take into consideration the cardiotoxic effect of endotoxin, the influence of shock mediators, lacticemia as well as the decrease of coronary perfusion pressure.

D011550 Pseudomonas aeruginosa A species of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria commonly isolated from clinical specimens (wound, burn, and urinary tract infections). It is also found widely distributed in soil and water. P. aeruginosa is a major agent of nosocomial infection.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013210 Staphylococcus A genus of gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic, coccoid bacteria. Its organisms occur singly, in pairs, and in tetrads and characteristically divide in more than one plane to form irregular clusters. Natural populations of Staphylococcus are found on the skin and mucous membranes of warm-blooded animals. Some species are opportunistic pathogens of humans and animals.
D018805 Sepsis Systemic inflammatory response syndrome with a proven or suspected infectious etiology. When sepsis is associated with organ dysfunction distant from the site of infection, it is called severe sepsis. When sepsis is accompanied by HYPOTENSION despite adequate fluid infusion, it is called SEPTIC SHOCK.
