    Abstract:
    The main values of central hemodynamics were studied in 20 patients in the acute period of injury with severe contusion of the brain and compression of intracranial hematoma. Three main types of circulatory reactions to the injury were revealed according to the values of the minute circulation volume. The hyperdynamic type of reaction was characterized by a rise of the main values of central hemodynamics; in the hypodynamic type of the circulatory reaction the cardiac output and the volume of circulating red cells were considerably reduced while the peripheral resistance was increased. The normodynamic type was characterized by essentially unchanged main values of central hemodynamics except for a reduced cardiac output and was interpreted as an inadequate reaction of circulation to the injury.
