Intravenous administration of large dosages of adenosine or adenosine triphosphate with minimal blood pressure fluctuation.
Hemodynamic responses, blood gas, and metabolic changes were assessed when large dosages of a pre-mixed solution of adenosine or adenosine triphosphate (ATP) with catecholamine were intravenously administered in the conscious, spontaneously breathing rabbit. The present study offers a simple and effective approach to enabling safe administration of large doses of the potent vasodilators, adenosine or ATP with minimal cardio-respiratory and metabolic changes.
