Using equilibrium radionuclide angiography, an evaluation was made of the response of left ventricular ejection and filling rates at rest and during acute increases in afterload in 8 normal volunteer subjects and 10 patients with previous transmural myocardial infarctions. Using the postatropine point for comparison, normal patients increased ejection time and decreased peak ejection rate (-3.90 +/- 0.49 vol/s to -3.41 +/- 0.95 vol/s) and peak filling rate (3.94 +/- 0.88 vol/s to 3.51 +/- 0.38 vol/s). Infarct patients had similar responses, although all indexes were lower than the corresponding values in the normal subjects. At rest, the ratio of peak filling to emptying rate was similar in the normal subjects and the infarct patients (1.01 +/- 0.24 versus 0.99 +/- 0.25, respectively) and maintained that relationship after atropine (0.91 +/- 0.11 versus 0.81 +/- 0.21) and at the peak increase in arterial pressure (1.07 +/- 0.21 versus 1.02 +/- 0.32). The ratio of time to peak filling/time to peak emptying behaved in similar fashion regardless of the differences in the absolute values. In this study, left ventricular filling and emptying behaved in a similar fashion in response to the alteration in arterial pressure in normal subjects and in patients with previous myocardial infarctions. |
