    Notes: Summary In 12 normal volunteers the interaction between the metabolic and cardiovascular effects of adrenaline and either a cardioselective (atenolol 150 mg p. o. for 1 week) or a non-selectiveβ-blocker with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (pindolol 15 mg p. o. for 1 week) were studied. Equiactive doses of theβ-blockers were investigated with respect to their metabolic effects. There were profound differences in the metabolic profile of the two substances: the non-cardioselective beta-blocker caused significant inhibition of the lipolytic, glycogenolytic and the growth hormone-releasing effects of adrenaline when compared to the cardioselective agent. The results indicate that, during non-cardioselective beta-blockade, metabolic effects occur which should favourably influence myocardial oxygen consumption by making myocardial performance more economical.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommaire Unappareil chimio-mécanique d'implantation, a été construit pour fonctionner comme mécanisme de renvoi dans le contrôle de la pression sanguine. Il se compose d'un ballon relié à un cathéter en caoutchouc, qui se termine par une soupape fendue. Les courbes de pression-débit proviennent d'essais in vitro, pour 3 seuils à soupape (120, 140 et 170 mmHg). Cinq médicaments hypotensifs, d'action rapide, remplissent par la suite l'appareil, lors de 40 infusions de noradrénaline, dans 25 chiens; le ballon étant dans l'aorte abdominale, et le cathéter dans la veine cave inférieure. Les résultats sont les suivants: (i) Faisant suite à une courte augmentation initiale de la pression aortique systolique, relativement plus faible (p〈0·001) que celle des expériences de contrôle, l'appareil empêche toute montée de pression au-dessus de son seuil. (ii) Le temps nécessaire à la descente de pression, au seuil de l'appareil, dépend du médicament utilisé, soit: 3·34±0·84 (moyenne ± s.e., par minute) de nitroprusside de sodium, 5·99±0·96 de phentolamine, 11·63±2·97 d'hydralazine, 14·52±2·43 de méthylène-dopa et 23·32±2·07 d'oxyde diazoïque.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wurde ein einpflanzbarer, mechanisch-chemischer Druckregler konstruiert, der bei der Reglung des Blutdrucks als Rückführmechanismus arbeitet. Er bestand aus einem Ballon, der an ein Gummikatheter angeschlossen war, das am Ende zu einem Schlitzventil geformt war. Man erhielt Flußdruckkurven aus in vitro Prüfungen von den Schwellenwerten dreier Ventile (120, 140 und 170 mmHg). Fünf schnellwirkende, blutdrucksenkende Medikamente füllten während 40 Noradrenaline-Infusionen bei 25 Hunden das Gerät, wobei der Ballon an die abdominale Aorta und das Katheder in die weiter unten liegende Vena Cava angeschlossen waren. Die Resultate waren wie folt: (i) Einer kurzen, anfänglichen Steigerung des systolisch aortischen Drucks zufolge, der bedeutend (p〈0,001) niedriger als bei den Reglerexperimenten war, verhinderte das Gerät jeglichen Druckanstieg über den Schwellenwert hinaus. (ii) Die für die Drucksenkung am Schwellenwert des Gerätes benötigte Zeit hing von dem verwendeten Medikament ab und war 3,34±0,84 (Durchschnitt ± s.e., in min) für Sodiumnitroprussid, 5,99±0,96 für Phentolamin, 11,63±2,97 für Hydrazalin, 14,52±2,43 füra-Methyl-Dopa und 23,32±2,07 für Diazoxyd.
    Notes: Abstract An implantable mechanical-chemical device was constructed to act as a feedback mechanism in controlling the blood pressure. It consisted of a balloon connected to a rubber catheter ending in a slit valve. Flow-pressure curves were derived fromin vitro testings for three valve thresholds (120, 140 and 170 mmHg). Five fast-acting hypotensive drugs subsequently filled the device during 40 noradrenaline infusions in 25 dogs, with the balloon in the abdominal aorta and the catheter in the inferior vena cava. The results were as follows: (i) Following a short initial increase in systolic aortic pressure, significantly lower (p〈0·001) than in control experiments, the device prevented any pressure rise above its threshold. (ii) The time needed for pressure lowering at the device's threshold depended on the drug used being 3·34±0·84 (mean ± s.e. in minutes) for sodium nitroprusside, 5·99±0·96 for phentolamin, 11·63±2·97 for hydralazine, 14·54±2·43 for a-methyl-dopa and 23·32±2·07 for diazoxide.

    Notes: Abstract A large number of calves maintained up to two weeks with the Kwan-Gett artificial heart have had elevated central venous pressure with associated ascites, edema, oliguria responding to diuretics, and increased body weight and weight of organs at autopsy. This has been described as right heart failure syndrome and has been a problem limiting survival with the artificial heart. The high venous pressure has been attributed to inadequate pumping characteristics of the heart as well as imperfect fit which obstructs venous return. A new design of an artificial heart was tested on the mock circulation and in one calf with encouraging results. Venous return remained unimpaired during the artificial heart test in the calf. The heart is designed with the following main characteristics. (1) Highly flexible ventricular diaphragm. (2) Low resistance to inflow. (3) Parallel disposition of artificial ventricles and artificial atria for a better anatomical relation to the natural ostia. (4) Artificial atria with air chambers vented to the atmosphere. The increased compliance of the atrial walls prevented reduction of venous return caused by vacuum applied to the ventricles during the filling period. Although the heart compromised lung space, it demonstrated the need for still another new design which will not obstruct venous return and will maintain normal venous pressures without compromising lung space.
