| Abstract: | Effects of intravascular low-intensive laser exposure of the blood on the hemostasis during acute blood loss and the early postresuscitation period after 4-min clinical death were studied on narcotized dogs (8-17 kg) of both sexes with different initial levels of heparin. During the preagonal period laser exposure caused hypercoagulation in animals with initial heparin content below 60 micrograms/ml. This acceleration of blood clotting prevented a drop in the activity of antithrombin III and hypercoagulation by the third hour of postresuscitation period. In animals with initial heparin content more than 60 micrograms/ml laser exposure caused hypocoagulation in the presence of reduced activity of antithrombin III by the third hour of the resuscitation period. |
