Muscle microvascular oxygenation in chronic heart failure: role of nitric oxide availability

Aim: To test the hypothesis that diminished vascular nitric oxide availability might explain the inability of individuals with chronic heart failure (CHF) to maintain the microvascular PO2’s (PO2mv ∝ O2 delivery‐to‐uptake ratio) seen in healthy animals. Methods: We superfused sodium nitroprusside...
