Why the study?
Does severe haemorrhage compared to moderate haemorrhage alter intestinal vascular capacitance in an anaesthetized pig model?
Population
12 chloralose-anaesthetized pigs (6 of which were vagotomized prior to induction of haemorrhage)
Comparison
Severe haemorrhage vs Moderate haemorrhage

Preclinical findings only; leaves open vagal modulation of intestinal capacitance during progressive hemorrhage.
Does severe haemorrhage compared to moderate haemorrhage alter intestinal vascular capacitance in an anaesthetized pig model?
Severe haemorrhage partially reverses the moderate haemorrhage-induced decrease in intestinal vascular capacitance, an effect mediated in part by the cardiac vagal reflex.
Wang et al. (1998) studied this question.
