Abstract

A practical method of rheography is suggested for studying the state of the human gastric circulation. The theoretical aspects of the use of a bipolar system of electrodes (external and internal) with essentially different sizes of contact surface are examined with respect to the stomach. A scheme and brief description of the simple apparatus are given. Control experiments were carried out on animals to confirm the validity of the basic assumptions. Mean values of some rheographic indices frequently used in clinical practice, based on rheograms of the stomach of 30 healthy subjects, are given.
