Isoturone (5 mg/kg) administered in a single dose intravenously to unanesthetized cats in a torpid phase of traumatic shock increases arterial blood pressure (BP) and total peripheral vascular resistance (TPVR). The drug restores BP level mainly due to an increase of TPVR against background of neurovegetative blockade induced by pentamine, phentolamine and combinations of phentolamine with hexonium in the presence of a severe trauma. Vascular sensitivity to isoturone in traumatic shock is preserved and considerably increases during the use of the vasopressor in different types of neurovegetative blockade.

Etiron is capable to recover arterial pressure reduced by phentolamine, and to correct, to a certain degree, other parameters of the systemic hemodynamics, that change after administering an alpha-adrenoblocker. The recovery of arterial pressure occurs mainly at the expense of the increased general peripheral resistance, whereas the minute circulatory volume remains almost unchanged.

It has been shown in experiments on rats anesthetized with thiopental that intravenous injection of phentolamine in a dose of 10 mg/kg enlarges the microvessels of the mesoappendix, pia mater, liver and kidneys and raises the number of functioning capillaries. Administration of etiron after phentolamine stabilized AP and corrects microcirculation. The drug raises the tone of the microvessels when applied locally in a dose of 0.
