title: [Clinical observation of hemodynamic changes during anaphylactic reaction].
abstract: Four cases of anaphylactic shock are reported. In two patients who underwent A-C bypass operation, we evaluated hemodynamic changes systemically when the anaphylactic reaction occurred. At that time it was observed that arterial pressure, central venus pressure, left atrial pressure and systemic vascular resistance decreased and that cardiac index increased. In other two patients it was not possible to evaluate hemodynamic changes during reaction. But one of these two patients developed coronary spasm accompanied with anaphylactic shock and the other patient who had depressed cardiac function and had developed cardiogenic shock, died of cardiac failure after 47 days. It is suggested that hemodynamic changes in anaphylactic reaction varies depending on different general conditions of the patient.
