title: [Studies on anesthetized and nonanesthetized slaughter swine. 1. Blood pressure].
abstract: The blood pressure of pigs for slaughter were measured. Onset of electric anaesthesia was followed by blood pressure rise of about 25 per cent. Peak values of 100 per cent in excess of the original pressure were recorded in some cases. Termination of the electric stimulus, generally, was followed by sudden blood pressure drop. The original pressure usually was reached ten seconds from the debleeding puncture. With continued debleeding, it stayed at 75 mm Hg after 50 seconds on average. Extraordinary high rise in blood pressure in response to electric stimulation usually was followed by rapid pressure drop, whereas in cases with moderate rise at the time of anaesthesia the subsequent decline was at slower rates.
