[Varied circulatory effects after rapid infusion of hydroxyethyl starch, dextran 60 and blood in the postoperative patient].

The acute hemodynamic effects which occur after a quick infusion (500 ml per 10 minutes) of hydroxyethyl starch, dextran 60 or autologous blood with identical hematocrit were studied in three groups of 10 patients each on the first day after laparotomy. If blood is infused there is only a moderate increase of the total perfusion (+18%) observed, however hydroxyethyl starch or dextran 60 infusions result in a striking increase of the cardiac output (+34%, +44%, respectively). There is no significant difference among the latter two groups. Thus, hydroxyethyl starch as well as dextran 60 can be considered as a potent volume substitute, if an acute effectiveness is wanted.

[Reconstructive surgery of the peripheral arteries in elderly people].

The results of reconstructive surgery of atherosclerotic occlusive disease in the senium are reported on 71 patients. Mortality rate of 14.68% and improvement of 63.38% showed clearly better results than described in literature with an amputation mortality rate between 26% and 60%. In the authors' opinion also in the senium the reconstructive surgery of the peripheral arterial system should be preferred if general and local operability are given.

[Clinical experiences with dopamine after heart surgery].

15 patients have been treated with dopamine (2.0--6.0 gamma/kg/min) in the initial phase of cardiogenic shock after cardiac surgery. Indication was a systolic blood pressure of less than 85 mmHg associated with oligurie and peripheral vasoconstriction. 12 patients survived the cardiocirculatory crisis and the early postoperative period. Dopamine alone increased the arterial blood pressure in 6 patients from 52.4 to 80.1 mmHg and the urine flow from 25.2 ml/hr to 181.2 ml/hr. To obtain an optimal perfusion pressure additional application of Noradrenalin was used in 8 patients. In these patients the urine flow rose from 9.1 ml/hr to 131 ml/hr. In one patient no reaction, neither to dopamine, nor in combination with Noradrenalin was seen. The effect of pulse rate, central venous pressure and arterial oxygen tension has been discussed. Dopamine seems to be a useful substance in surgical patients with temporary cardiac insufficiency.
