[Disrupted function of the cardiovascular system in fulgurant sepsis].

The condition of cardiodynamics and the toxic properties of venous blood plasma in fulgurant staphylococcal sepsis were studied in 30 experiments on dogs. The values of myocardial contractile activity, the heart pumping function, and systemic hemodynamics were recorded. Blood plasma toxicity was determined according to the paramecium test and the content of medium-molecular peptides.
