Popis: The spatial–temporal organization of the activation, repolarization and hemodynamics of the heart ventricle in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, adapted to a temperature of 5–7 °C, were studied from the normal sinus rhythm (21.6 ± 4.9 bpm) to the highest possible heart rhythm (HR) (60 bpm), during which deterioration of the contractile activity of the myocardium occurred. Regardless of the HR, the main pattern of excitation of the heart ventricle was the movement of the depolarization wave from the dorsal areas of the base in the base-apical and ventral directions with the capture of the entire thickness of the walls, with a slight difference in the time of activation of the subendocardium compared to the subepicardium. The increase in HR above the sinus rhythm caused significant shortening of local repolarization durations in all areas and layers (endocardial, intramural and subepicardial) of the heart ventricle. Changes in local durations of repolarization led to an increase in the heterogeneity of repolarization of the ventricular myocardium; as a result, a deterioration of its contractility was observed. In relation to the sinus rhythm, the maximal systolic pressure in the heart ventricle decreased, the diastolic and end-diastolic pressure increased, and the maximum rates of pressure rise and fall decreased. In rainbow trout adapted to a temperature of 5–7 °C at sinus rhythm, the pumping function of the heart was probably within the upper limit of the physiological norm, and a further increase in the heart rate led to a decline in myocardial contractility.
