Abstract:
The animal models of the combined injuries of mild, medium or severe hemorrhage and cyanide intoxication were produced by bleeding to 9.33, 6.67, or 5.33 kPa of arterial systolic pressure and administrating NaCN 2.5 mg/kg intravenously. Dogs with the combined injury of acute mild hemorrhage and cyanide intoxication in control group did not receive DMAP treatment whereas dogs in DMAP treatment groups receiveed DMAP 2 mg/kg iv at 3 min after administrating cyanide. The changes of hemodynamics and blood gases and methemoglobin were determined. The dogs receiving no DMAP treatnent in control group died within 5 min after intoxication. DMAP has an excitatory effect on hemodynamics after giving to dogs with the combined injury of acute mild hemorrhage and cyanide intoxication. It can save the dogs from death. The excitatory effect of DMAP on hemodynamics becomes weaker while the level of acute hemorrhage increases. The results of blood gas and methemoglobin analysis indicated that DMAP can disturb the oxygen-carrying capacity of hemoglobin because of the formation of much higher concentration of methemoglobin when DMAP is used as an antidote for the combined injury of acute hemorrhage and cyanide intoxication. The results suggested that methemoglobin formers should not be used as the antidotes for the combined injury of acute hemorrhage and cyanide intoxication.
