[Method for simultaneous study of peristaltic and pendular movements of isolated rabbit ileum].

A method is described for studying simultaneously the peristalsis and the pendular movements in the isolated pieces of rabbit ileum. At the same time, using this method it is possible to analyse the actions of drugs on the mechanisms which ensure the pendular movements and the propulsive activity, as well as their relationship. The method is relatively simple and only classical and commercially available equipments are needed. With this method the records and the volume of fluid expelled are suitable for statistical analysis.
