  • Title: [An evaluation of the results of intra-arterial injections in treating chronic ischemia of the lower extremities].
    Author: Prokhorov GG.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1991; 147(7-8):41-4. PubMed ID: 1668930.
    Abstract:
    Intra-arterial infusions used in treatment of ischemia of lower extremities in patients with obliterating atherosclerosis can cause pronounced vasoconstrictory reactions in distal parts of the extremity with reduced pulse blood filling and oxygenation of tissues. As necessary measures of prophylactics of negative shifts in regional blood circulation the author suggests to be valuable anesthesia and atraumatic character of interventions, use of warm solutions, exclusion of irritating drugs and osmotically active substances. The final efficiency of intra-arterial infusions is dependent on the observation of the above conditions.
