PRECONDITIONING IMPROVES MYOCARDIAL FUNCTION AND REFLOW, BUT NOT VASODILATOR REACTIVITY, AFTER ISCHAEMIA AND REPERFUSION IN ANAESTHETIZED DOGS
SUMMARY 1. The present study examines whether three cycles of brief coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion (i.e. ischaemic preconditioning; PC) can prevent vasodilator dysfunction and the impairment of myocardial reflow caused by prolonged ischaemia. Coronary blood flow, left ventricular dP/dt, s...

1. The present study examines whether three cycles of brief coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion (i.e. ischaemic preconditioning; PC) can prevent vasodilator dysfunction and the impairment of myocardial reflow caused by prolonged ischaemia. Coronary blood flow, left ventricular dP/dt, systemic arterial blood pressure and heart rate were measured in open‐chest anaesthetized dogs.
2. Sixty minute occlusion of the left circumflex coronary artery (LCx) and 60 min LCx reperfusion (ISC/REP; group 1) significantly reduced resting coronary blood flow (CBF, initial 29±3mL/min; ISC/REP 20±3mL/min, P |
