[Evaluation by electrocorticogram of the protective action of piridoxilate against cerebral hypoxia in rats].
Piridoxilate, at the concentration of 120 mg/kg i.p. in rats, enhanced resistance of these animals to hypoxia (N2 : O2 3,2 %). The electrocorticogram (ECOG) is used to indicate the effectiveness of the drug in lowering the time of electrographic silence, on control (n=19) and pretreated rats (n=12). The ECOG was recorded also during the recovery period under pure oxygen. In pretreated rats, the ECOG records became flat in approximately 551 sec (versus 269 sec on the control group). The latent period of successive steps of cerebral anoxia were delayed in pretreated rats exposed to hypoxia. During the recovery period, piridoxilate seems to enhance the restoration of normal ECOG, as a function of the duration of hypoxia.
