Abstract
Compression ischemia of the central nervous system (CNS) in heparinized dogs caused areas of diminished cerebral blood flow measured by 14C-antipyrine autoradiography. Intravenous infusion of indomethacin (1.5 or 4.0 mg/kg) approximately 1 hour before ischemia eliminated the circulatory defects. Prophylactic inhibition of prostaglandin synthetase may promote postischemic perfusion of the CNS by preventing vasoconstriction and by anti-hemostatic effects on blood.Entities:
