چکیده

Hemodynamicg, myocardial function, and regional myocardial blood flow (MBF) were measured during acute right ventricular (RV) pressure overload created by inflation of a previously implanted cuff to constrict the pulmonary artery trunk (PAC) in seven closed-chest, anesthetized calves during normoxia (Pad: 90-110 mm Hg) and hypoxia (PaOj ~ 40 mm Hg). MBF was determined by the microsphere method. With PAC, mean RV systolic pressure approached 90 mm Hg or higher and tricuspid regurgitation occurred frequently. There was no indication of increased RV contractility when alterations in preload and afterload were taken into account, nor was there evidence to suggest deterioration of left ventricular contractility during PAC with normoxia or hypoxia. During normoxia + PAC, there was an insignificant increase in blood flow to the RV free wall and right side of the interventricular septum over their respective control values. However, with hypoxia + PAC, myocardial perfusion to these regions registered a significant increase over the control hypoxic values despite similar coronary driving pressure and RV tension time index. This suggests that coronary vascular reserve had not been exhausted during normoxia + PAC in these areas of the ventricular myocardium. Selective underperfusion of RV endocardium did not occur during either PAC period. The tendency of blood flow to increase in the right side of the septum with PAC during normoxia and hypoxia supports the view that the right side of the septum aids the RV contraction.

Regional myocardial blood flow and coronary vascular reserve in unanesthetized young calves exposed to a simulated altitude of 3500 m for 8--10 weeks.

We determined regional myocardial blood flow (15-micrometer tracer microspheres) and hemodynamics in nine normal calves, seven calves with right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy induced by pulmonary artery banding (PAB) at sea level, and five calves exposed to simulated high altitude (HA) of 3,500 m (PB = 500 mm Hg) for 8--10 weeks. Progression of RV hypertrophy was very rapid in HA calves. RV weig...

Transmural right ventricular blood flow during acute pulmonary artery hypertension in the sedated dog. Evidence for subendocardial ischemia despite residual vasodilator reserve.

Right ventricular failure during acute pressure overload has been attributed to ischemia which occurs when maximal coronary vasodilation is achieved so that further increases in myocardial blood flow cannot occur. To test the hypothesis that coronary vasodilator reserve is exhausted during acute right ventricular pressure overload, right and left ventricular myocardial blood flow was measured i...

Myocardial damage of the entire ventricular region in a patient with acute myocardial infarction

Technetium-99m-pyrophosphate (99mTc-PYP) has been used, in combination with thallium-201, to estimate the site and extent of myocardial infarcts. We report a case of acute myocardial infarction with severe coronary disease in which the distribution of 99mTc-PYP was extensive. A 78-year-old man presented with dyspnea, and a diagnosis of non-ST-segment elevation acute myocar...

Comparison of left and right ventricular blood flow responses during arterial pressure reduction in the autonomically blocked dog: evidence for right ventricular autoregulation.

The effect of reducing systemic arterial pressure with an arteriovenous fistula on left and right ventricular myocardial blood flow was studied in 17 anaesthetised, open chest, autonomically blocked dogs. Global and regional myocardial blood flows were measured with radioactive microspheres. As mean arterial pressure was reduced from 133 mmHg to 78 mmHg left ventricular myocardial blood flow an...
