Postischaemic myocardial dysfunction (stunning) induced by partial occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery and its relation to lactate production during reperfusion were studied in nine swine. A 40% reduction in regional left ventricular wall thickening, as measured by ultrasonic crystals, was prospectively defined as stunning. A perfusion pressure of 20 mmHg was maintained with a hydraulic occluder for each ischaemic period and was monitored by a distal arterial catheter. To achieve a 40% reduction in function, four animals required three ischaemic periods (mean ischaemic flow reduction 73%), four two (86% flow reduction), and one one (93% flow reduction). At 25 min of reperfusion transmural flow was slightly reduced from 0.67 ml·g−1 ·min−1 at control to 0.58 ml·g−1·min−1 (p<0.05), whereas regional flow endocardial to epicardial flow ratio was unchanged. At 60 min reperfusion, percentage systolic wall thickening was reduced to 25% from a control of 39% (p<0.01) and parallel reductions in regional myocardial oxygen consumption from 4.3 ml·min−1 to 2.7 ml·min−1 occurred (p<0.01). Lactate extraction was depressed at 15 min reperfusion (-4.0% compared with control +18.0% (p<0.05)) but returned to control values by 30 min. It is concluded that postischaemic myocardial dysfunction (stunning) can be induced by partial coronary occlusions and that the extent of dysfunction depends on the degree of flow reduction. The reductions in myocardial oxygen consumption parallel those of wall thickening during reperfusion after stunning. Finally, lactate production occurs during early reperfusion but does not persist with the postischaemic reductions in function and myocardial oxygen consumption. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
