Background Skeletal muscle ventricles (SMVs) have been used in animals in a variety of configurations to provide circulatory assistance. Long-term survival and function have been demonstrated. Our laboratory recently obtained promising short-term hem

Twelve bilateral skeletal muscle ventricles (SMVs) were constructed in six dogs by wrapping each latissimus dorsi muscle around a cylindrical, plastic mandrel (volume 30 cc). After 6 to 10 weeks, five dogs had one of their SMVs seeded with allogeneic

Skeletal muscle ventricles (SMVs) were constructed from the right latissimus dorsi muscle of 8 mongrel dogs. After a 3-week vascular delay period, each SMV was electrically preconditioned with 2-Hz continuous stimulation of the thoracodorsal nerve fo

Skeletal muscle ventricles were constructed in fifteen dogs. After a delay period of 4 weeks the skeletal muscle ventricles were connected to the descending thoracic aorta with a polytetrafluoroethylene bifurcation graft (Gore-Tex bifurcation graft,

Our most recent work on cardiac assist with canine latissimus dorsi muscle in a skeletal muscle ventricle (SMV) configuration is reported here. One animal's SMV has been pumping blood effectively in the circulation for more than 16 months. To date th

Original attempts to use skeletal muscle for cardiac assistance were soon abandoned when the problem of muscle fatigue could not be solved. In the last 2 decades, better understanding of muscle physiology and the development of successful protocols o

Cardio-double myoplasty was performed in eight mongrel dogs. Both latissimus dorsi muscles were dissected from the chest wall and wrapped around the heart. They were then stimulated using an R wave synchronous stimulator. Hemodynamic measurements wer

Circulating levels of diamine oxidase (DAO), a mucosal enzyme found primarily in the small intestine, have been shown to reflect intestinal mucosal damage in a variety of disease states. Our aim was to assess the usefulness of both basal and posthepa

Skeletal muscle ventricles (SMV) were constructed from canine left latissimus dorsi muscle. The animals were divided into three groups: group A (n = 5), SMVs rested 4 weeks without electrical conditioning; group B (n = 6), SMVs rested 4 weeks and the

The effects of portal hypertension on gut function may be mediated by venous congestion and altered circulating levels of enteric hormones and neuropeptides. We designed this study to determine the effects of chronic intestinal venous hypertension (V
