[Changes in circulatory indices in hepatopathic patients (author's transl)].

: In more than 70% of subjects suffering from chronic liver disease of varying gravity without presenting signs of renal failure, a haemodynamic situation of hyperkinetic type was evidenced. The increase in flow is linked to the reduction of vascular resistances. A hemodynamic classification is proposed in order to evidence relationships between physical and mechanical adaptation and the mechanisms of regulation and counter-regulation, and within which the test case may find a possible interpretation.
