title: On-line control of circulating blood volume.
abstract: We developed an experimental method which enabled continuous determination of the circulatory blood volume, when the blood volume was subjected to alterations. The blood volume was modified by a servo system to control transfer of the blood between an external reservoir and the cardiovascular system. Possible application of our method to the analysis of circulatory responses to blood volume changes is discussed.
