[Anti-G-suit-a facility of Neuroanaesthesia at operations in the sitting position].
The Anti-G-Suit- an over-all-air-pressure-garment over legs and bowel up to the xiphoid is proposed as a successful method to encounter acute postural decrease of blood pressure in neurosurgical patients. Increase of peripheral resistance and displacement of the circulating blood volume above the diaphragm enhance blood pressure which has fallen by the depressive effect on the vasomotor centre and the negative inotrope effect of narcotics.
