La Thermométrie Cutanée Chez le Sujet Normal

Pages 241-249 | Received 01 Sep 1949, Published online: 23 May 2016
 

Summary

Cutaneous temperature has been followed in normal people in order to study the effects of several tests abolishing arterial spasms. Vasodilatation by warm water and vasoconstriction by cold water are simple tests which do not need too much apparatus, but more patience.

It makes possible to get some informations that are impossible to get by other methods. That is the reason why tests with barbiturates, tetra-ethyl-amnionium chloride or bromide or intra arterial injection of acetylcholine have been discarded. Warm and cold water tests have been considered as chief data in the diagnosis and prognosis of peripheral arteritis. It has the same value as arteriography and it is more useful than oscillometry.

Semenvatting

Wij toonden in het kort de normale thermometrische kurven die men bekomt door verschillende proeven welke het vasospasms uitschakelen. Do « warm-water » proef en de « koud water » test vergen weinig instrumentarium, doch veel geduld.

Zij maken het mogelijk kleine verschillen aan te duiden, die intraveneuze of intraarteriéle inspuitingen niet kunnen geven.

Wij verlieten daarom de tests met barbituurderivaten en met tetraæthyl ammonium, — bromide, of — chloride en de intraarteriële inspuiting van aoctylcholine-novocaïne.

In de diagnose en prognose van de perifere vaataandoeningen vormt onze methode een voornaam element. Zij bleok bijna gelijk aan de arteriografie, steeds beter dan de oscillometrie te zijn.
