Effects of Stellate Ganglion Blockade on Muscle Blood Flow During Hypercapnia.

In conclusion, unilateral SGB restored the ipsilateral masseter muscle blood flow that had been reduced during hypercapnia. In contrast, the SGB exacerbated the hypercapnia-induced reduction in blood flows in the contralateral masseter muscle and the femoral quadriceps muscle. PMID: 32992330 [PubMed - in process]
