چکیده

Left ventricular (LV) relaxation is crucial for LV function, especially during exercise. We compared the effects of increasing doses of ivabradine, a selective inward hyperpolarization-activated current inhibitor, and atenolol on the rate and extent of LV relaxation (best fit method: time constant tau(BF), pressure asymptote P(BF)) at rest and during exercise. Eight dogs were chronically instrumented to measure LV pressure and LV wall stresses. During exercise under saline, heart rate increased from 108 +/- 5 to 220 +/- 6 beats/min and tau(BF) was significantly reduced from 22 +/- 1 to 14 +/- 2 ms. At rest, atenolol but not ivabradine increased tau(BF). For similar heart rate reductions during exercise, atenolol impeded the shortening of tau(BF) (23 +/- 2 ms) whereas ivabradine had no effect (15 +/- 2 ms). The extent of the relaxation process (P(BF)) at peak exercise was increased by ivabradine, and to a greater extent by atenolol, compared with saline. Thus, for a similar reduction in heart rate at rest and during exercise, ivabradine, in contrast with atenolol, does not exert any negative lusitropic effect.

Effects of bisoprolol fumarate on left ventricular size, function, and exercise capacity in patients with heart failure: analysis with magnetic resonance myocardial tagging.

BACKGROUND Recent data suggest that beta-blockers can be beneficial in subgroups of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). For metoprolol and carvedilol, an increase in ejection fraction has been shown and favorable effects on the myocardial remodeling process have been reported in some studies. We examined the effects of bisoprolol fumarate on exercise capacity and left ventricular volume ...

Effect of oral propranolol on rest, exercise and postexercise left ventricular performance in normal subjects and patients with coronary artery disease.

The effect of beta-adrenergic blockade with oral propranolol on resting, exercise and postexercise ventricular performance was evaluated using multiple-gated equilibrium cardiac blood and pool images in normal volunteers and patients with coronary artery disease. Propranolol produced no detectable effect on basal left ventricular function in normal subjects at doses producing intermediate (160 ...

Reflex alpha-adrenergic coronary vasoconstriction during hindlimb static exercise in dogs.

We studied 18 alpha-chloralose-anesthetized dogs to determine if alpha-adrenergic coronary vasoconstriction occurs with hindlimb static exercise. Exercise was elicited by spinal cord ventral nerve root stimulation. Regional coronary blood flow was determined by the radioactive microsphere method. Animals were studied under four experimental conditions: control rest and static exercise, rest and...

Evaluation of Cardiac Reserve in Hyperthyroid Patients with or without Beta-Adrenoreceptor-Blockade by Handgrip Exercise

To evaluate latent left ventricular dysfunction in patients with Graves' disease, hemodynamic response to isometric exercise were examined in 93 patients and 18 controls by impedance cardiography. All patients were treated with anti-thyroid drugs and 64 patients were stll clinically thyrotxic with elevated triiodothyronine (T3) in serum. The remaining 29 patients were clinically free of thyroto...

Comparative haemodynamic dose response effects of propranolol and labetalol in coronary heart disease.

The immediate haemodynamic dose response effects of beta blockade (propranolol: 2 to 16 mg) were compared with those of combined alpha beta blockade (labetalol: 10 to 80 mg) in a randomised study of 20 patients with stable angina pectoris. After control measurements, the circulatory changes induced by four logarithmically cumulative intravenous boluses of each drug in equivalent beta blocking d...
