[Acid-base balance of spinal cord fluid in the post-resuscitation period].
Experiments were conducted on dogs which had sustained a 10-minute circulatory arrest caused by electrotrauma; the acid-base balance of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the blood was studied during the postreanimation period. Although the systemic uncompensated acidosis persisted in the course of the first hour of the postreanimation period, compensation of the CSF acidosis occurred much earlier and the pH was maintained at the initial level for 6 hours. Despite a high lactate concentration for a period of 3 hours of the postreanimation period the bicarbonate concentration remained near the initial one at this period.
