Popis: The aim of the present study is to investigate the possible effects of acute blood loss (1% of body weight) on electrocardiogram (ECG) in male and female Swiss albino mice. Anesthesia was maintained with the ketamine-xylazine combination. The tail was cut using a scalpel blade and blood at a ratio of 1% body weight was collected in capillary tubes. ECG recording was done by using the standard lead II. P and T waves, intervals of PQ, QT, and RR, and QRS complex were measured after all ECG was recorded. The amplitude of P and QRS waves were significantly higher in males than that of females (P
