transport capacity, and mild vasoconstriction due to the infusion of a modified Hb solution may be beneficial.
PFC are carbonfluorine compounds characterised by a high gas—dissolving capacity, low viscosity, and chemical and biological inertness. Manufacturing an emulsion with very specific characteristics is a great technologic challenge. After intravenous application, the droplets of the emulsion are being taken up by the reticular—endothe—lial system, droplets are slowly broken down, the PFC molecules are being taken up in the blood again and transported to the lungs, where the unaltered PFC molecules are finally excreted via exhalation. The ability of PFC emulsions to transport and efficiently unload O >2 is undisputed. With the application of perflubron emulsion, cardiac output tender to increase.
