[Regulatory and executive mechanisms of adaptation to hypovolemia].
In anesthetized cats, suppression of reflexes from the main zones of cardiac vascular system induced with hypovolemia, was accompanied by raising the total peripheral resistance of vessels and the systemic arterial pressure. Some cats had a redistribution of cardiac output similar to changes of regional blood flow occurring in the defense response: the enhancement of the cardiac output directed towards the hind-limbs along with limitation of oxygen consumption in this region.
