Abstract
Last year we presented preliminary data which indicated a considerable inhomogeneity of capillary blood flow in skeletal muscle as measured both in the sartorius muscle of dogs and in the vastus medialis muscle in rabbits (Harrison et al., 1988). Measurements of capillary blood flow with particular emphasis on its distribution at rest, using hydrogen clearance techniques, during hypoxaemia and in contracting muscle led us to propose a two compartment model for the distribution of capillary blood flow in skeletal muscle.KeywordsCapillary Blood FlowSartorius MuscleHydrogen ClearanceOxygen ReserveHigh Flow RegionThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
