  • (7) Thrombosis of the subclavian vein occurs with these cannulae and is usually asymptomatic.
  • (8) It is suggested that long teflon cannulas should be avoided and that infusion thrombophlebitis could be eliminated as a clinical problem by the use of intermittent short duration intravenous infusions.
  • (9) Male Holtzman rats were implanted with chronic cerebral cannulas into the LH.
  • (10) An oxygen-conserving nasal cannula and oxygen concentrator were used.
  • (11) Rats were implanted with chronic indwelling cannulae into the lateral cerebral ventricle.
  • (12) Release of noradrenaline (NA), adrenaline (A) and dopamine (DA) was measured in vivo per minute before and after food presentation in satiated rats that had a cannula in the mediodorsal hypothalamic area (MDH).
  • (13) Ovariectomized (OVXed) animals were implanted with chronic cannulas in the basal forebrain.
  • (14) Compared to the original cannulas, there were markedly fewer difficulties with granulations, infection, and tube malposition with the modified cannulas.
  • (15) Blood collection, carried out via a jugular cannula or caudal venipuncture, had no significant effect on cortisol level.
  • (16) A special CSF outflow opening of the cannula is connected to polyethylene tubing for CSF sampling.
  • (17) After amputation of the closed tip, a cap from a syringe was inserted via a slit made at the base into one prong of a pair of nasal cannulae.
  • (18) In Study B, V3V cannulae were implanted in rats after a captopril-induced appetite for NaCl was established.
  • (19) The patency of chronically implanted intravascular cannulae is usually limited by thrombus formation at the cannula tip.
  • (20) In Group 1, cardiac drainage was achieved by using single-port drainage cannulae in the superior and inferior vena cava with caval tapes.

Cannular


Definition:

  • (a.) Having the form of a tube; tubular.

  • (4) There was little difference in digestive (voluntary food intake, dry matter digestibility and nitrogen balance) and blood measurements (venous concentrations of corticosteroids, serum aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1), protein-bound iodine, urea and glucose) of intact sheep (eight animals) and of sheep prepared with rumen cannular (sixteen animals) and subsequently with either simple 'T-shaped' (eight animals) or re-entrant cannulas (eight animals) at the duodenum and ileum, when fed ad lib.
  • (5) The method used concurrent left ventricular and arterial cannular injections of radiolabeled microspheres to calculate compartment flows and solve the system of equations that defined the partition model.
