| Popis: | (1) To evaluate the effect of maternal glucose loading upon myocardial glycogen and cardiovascular function in induced fetal distress, acute maternal hemorrhage was caused in term pregnant dogs pretreated with 1.5 gm/Kg of glucose 15 minutes before initiating hemorrhage. (2) Myocardial glycogen depletion followed almost the same pattern as in the untreated group, reaching a level a little below half of the control at the end of the experiment. (3) Fetal heart rate changes were altered by glucose administration in two respects: prolonged initial techycardia and less severe progressive bradycardia when this occurred. (4) Other main effects of glucose during the hypotensive period were significantly higher increases in both fetal and maternal plasma glucose compared to the untreated group and a tremendous increase of fetal pCO2 and decrease of fetal pH. (5) It may be concluded that glucose pretreatment is effective in providing oxidative energy to hypoxic cardiac muscle for its contractile activity. |
