Distribution of oxygenated blood in experimental perfusion via the femoral and carotid arteries
K Esato, R Richards and B Eiseman
The efficiency of femoral and carotid artery perfusion was compared in 10
dogs. The purpose of our study was to determine under what conditions the
femoral artery can be used to perfuse the upper body satisfactorily during
prolonged perfusions.
