Abstract:
We investigated tte effects of Bukuryoshigyaku-to on cxperimental hemorrhagic shock. Twelve mongrel dogs, which were anesthetized with 26mg/kg of pentobarbital were used, Bukuryoshigyaku-to was given to six dogs and saline solution alone was given to six dogs as a control. Under artificial respiration management, a hemorrhagic shock model was created by modified Wiggers method. The drug was administered by enema immediately after the compensatory phase. Bukuryoshigyaku-to, consistied of 4g Bukuryo (Hoelen), 2g of Kanzo (Glycyrrhizae Radix), 2g Kankyo (Zingiberis Siccatum Rhizoma), 2g of Ninjin (Ginseng Radix) and 2g of Bushi (Aconiti Tuber), which were extracted by boiling for approximately 30 minutes.
The results showed no statistical differences in the changes in the mean arterial pressure and central venous pressure between the two groups. However, the cardiac index was significantly higher in the observation phase in the Bukuryoshigyaku-to group than in the control group. A drop in body pressure was prevented in the traditional Bukuryoshigyaku-to group.
These findings suggest the effectiveness of Bukuryoshigyaku-to in the treatment of hemorrhagic shock.
