A combined method for measuring transcapillary fluid exchange and regional hemodynamic parameters during constant pressure-flow conditions.
A relatively simple method has been worked out for measuring haemodynamic parameters of the microcirculation in practically any organ or tissue during stabilized perfusion pressure or perfusion volume flow. The two methods are used consecutively in the same experiment. Capillary filtration coefficient (CFC) compliance of venous vessels to hydrostatic load (Cv), mean hydrostatic capillary pressure (Pc) can be measured, pre- and post-capillary resistance values, changes in filtration-reabsorption balance can be calculated.
