Effects of long-term catheter implantation on the contractile and histological properties of the canine bladder.

In beagles, a bladder catheter was surgically implanted and subvesical obstruction was artificially introduced. After 3 months a striking reduction in detrusor contractility measured in vitro was observed, which was associated with a presumptive reduction in the concentration of acetylcholinesterase in the muscle cells and a probable reduction in the mean cell size. In this model the contribution of the catheter to the changes is greater than that of the subvesical obstruction.

Bolus propagation in pig ureter in vitro.

Pig ureters were made to propagate injected fluid boluses by electrical stimulation in vitro. The propagation velocity was determined from EMG measurements made at several points along the ureter. It was found that this velocity varied both along the ureter and as a function of time, and that it was related to the contraction pressure but not to the bolus size.

A new method for permanent catheterization in the dog.

A new method of enabling urodynamic measurements to be made in the conscious dog is reported. A connecting device is located under the skin on the dog's back, and a catheter passes between this device and the bladder. The system described has proved valuable.
