The effect of pressure-controlled intermittent coronary sinus (CS) occlusion on myocardial infarction (MI) size was evaluated. A device for this purpose was developed that consisted of a balloon catheter and pump system that produced controlled, intermittent occlusion of the CS and used CS pressure as a feedback to determine the duration of occlusion. It was hypothesized that proper selection of occlusion and non-occlusion times would both facilitate improved retrograde flow to ischemic areas and allow for more complete venous washout of metabolites. In 13 treated dogs and 12 control dogs before treatment, myocardium at risk of MI was estimated by injection of technetium-labeled microspheres. Intermittent CS occlusion was then begun, 15 minutes after coronary artery occlusion, and continued until termination of the experiment 6 hours later. Postmortem determination of infarct size was performed using the triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining technique. Intermittent CS occlusion begun 15 minutes after coronary artery occlusion and continued for 6 hours resulted in a 45% average reduction in MI size (p less than 0.001). During CS occlusion, the sinus systolic mean pressure increased from 10 to 44 mm Hg, while the distal coronary artery mean pressure increased by an average of 36% (from 22 to 30 mm Hg, p less than 0.05). These results suggest intermittent occlusion may be an effective treatment for evolving MI. This therapy, used alone or combined with other therapies (e.g., administration of pharmacologic agents), appears to have great clinical potential. |
