1. Complete blood counts, respiratory rate, tidal volume, arterial and mixed venous blood gases; heart rate, cardiac output, and arterial, pulmonary artery, central venous and pulmonary wedge pressures were determined in 10 pregnant adult sheep of 42.7-65.7 kg body weight. 2. Arithmetic means, standard deviations, and coefficients of variation were calculated to develop reference values; in addition, the 95% confidence limits for ranges were established. 3. Comparison of derived data with that from non-pregnant sheep shows changes similar to those seen when examining pregnant and non-pregnant humans. 4. These results indicate the pregnant sheep is an acceptable model for human obstetrical research.
