[Method for measuring physiological changes under fenoterol and verapamil. An experimental study on the origin of pulmonary oedema under tocolysis. I (author's transl)].

Fluidshifts in the lung seem to play an important role in labour inhibition with fenoterol and verapamil. Therefore the experimental procedure for an investigation of these drugs is discussed in detail. The Thermo-Dye-Technic is used for quantitating pulmonary extravascular water. Moreover methods for monitoring pulmonary and systemic hemodynamics, bloodgases and acid-base-balance, metabolic parameters and the realization of the experiment are described.

Animals↗

[Anesthsiological experiences in experimental surgery].

The paper reports experience with methods of anaesthesia in rabbits, rats, mice, guinea-pigs, pigs, sheep, baboons, dogs and cats. Special problems of handling, mode of injection and intubation are discussed. A comprehensive survey of literature provides further information about the proposed patterns of anaesthesia and informs about other anaesthetic methods, not practised by the authors.

[The combination of etomidate and fentanyl as a short acting and introduction anaesthesia in the dog in experimental medicine (author's transl)].

The effects of a combination of etomidate (1.0 mg/kg bw) and fetanyl (0.005 mg/kh bw) on haematology, blood gases, acid-base balance and haemodynamics were investigated in 8 mongrel dogs. The only significant change in haematology was leucopenia. Blood gas values and acid-base balance initially showed a depression of respiration and a tendency to slight metabolic acid dosis. Decreased heart rate caused diminution of cardiac output, while systemic and pulmonary resistance as well as stroke volume were not altered significantly.
