Abstract
Intravenous injection of fresh solutions of nicotine, and simulated smoking of cigarettes were carried out upon pregnant ewes. Cardiovascular functions, including gaseous exchange and blood flow, of both the ewes and their fetuses were studied to note any acute effects. No significant changes were observed as a result of either nicotine administration or smoke inhalation.
