title: [Haemodynamics of blood supply to the pulmonary or body circulation via a patent ductus arteriosus in infants (author's transl)].
abstract: To control the cardiopulmonary functioning of high risk newborn with congenital heart defects the authors apply computergenerated recording of vital parameters predominantly measured by non-invasive methods. It was found that periodic variations of the arterial partial oxygen pressure occur with occlusion of the outflow from both the right and the left ventricle, associated with patent ductus arteriosus. The authors interpret these periodic variations as intermittent contractions of the arterial duct. The pathophysiology of this phenomenon is discussed.
