This linear relation implies that the gas dissolves independently in each liquid in the mixture. The effect of the emulsifier (Pluronic F-68, 2.6%), on gas solubility in the mixture, is small.

This is the first report of a pilot study of the use of Fluosol and HBO with radiation in humans. Twenty patients with anaplastic astrocytoma or glioblastoma multiforme were treated in a phase I trial of radiation with Fluosol and HBO at three atmospheres. Total Fluosol dose was escalated from 42 ml/kg in six courses to 80 ml/kg in four courses. Patients were irradiated in an HBO chamber with 600 cGy weekly fractions following Fluosol administration. Sixteen patients completed treatment; no interruption was necessitated by treatment toxicity. The addition of Fluosol/HBO did not increase the incidence of HBO related toxicities. No significant chronic toxicities were seen. This pilot study demonstrates that Fluosol and HBO can safely be used as an adjunct to radiation in the treatment of human tumors.</p>","PeriodicalId":77039,"journal":{"name":"Biomaterials, artificial cells, and immobilization biotechnology : official journal of the International Society for Artificial Cells and Immobilization Biotechnology","volume":"20 2-4","pages":"903-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3109/10731199209119738","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12500874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we present a detailed method which permits the investigation of the wall shear stress acting on arteries and prostheses in dogs. The theory takes into account the nonlinear terms of the Navier-Stokes equations as well as the nonlinear behaviour and large deformation of the arterial wall. It is based on the numerical resolution of the nonlinear equations by the Crank-Nicolson method which was selected for its unconditional stability. Through the locally measured values of the pressure, pressure gradient, radius and flow rate, the velocity distribution and wall shear stress at a given location along the artery or the prosthesis, can be determined.

The particle size of NRC is 180 +/- 88 nm, the hemoglobin concentration is 5.6 g/dl, the viscosity is 2 cp and P50 is 49.5 mmHg. The experiment was carried out on six mongrel dogs suffering hemorrhagic shock. Blood was extracted from the femoral artery and blood pressure became lower than 60 mmHg. NRC in amount equal to the amount of blood extracted was transfused immediately. Inhalating normal room air, the above manipulation was repeated 3-5 times. After 59% to 88% blood exchange using NRC, the total peripheral vascular resistance index (TPRI) was reduced and the cardiac index (CI) was increased, thereby alleviating the burden on the heart. The reduction of TPRI in the presence of hemorrhagic shock is presumed to be due to the small size of the NRC granules and their low viscosity. As the exchange rate increased, the oxygen consumption (VO2) increased remarkably, presumably due to the increase of CI and A-V difference of oxygen content.

Rats were moderately hemodiluted with Fluosol and received an intravenous dose of a drug marker 24, 48, or 72 hours after hemodilution. The formation clearance (ClF) of specific metabolites was used as the pharmacokinetic measure of a specific enzymatic activity. 3-Hydroxymethyl antipyrine ClF (phenobarbital inducible microsomal cytochrome P-450 isoenzymes) increased 300% only at 48 hours.
