Popis: Objective: Myocardial metabolic requirements during reperfusion of ventricular fibrillation are poorly understood. The objective of this study was to determine if controlled reperfusion after a clinically relevant global ischemia period of 10 mins was sufficient to prevent or reverse myocardial ischemia as indicated by changes in myocardial high energy phosphates, myocardial intracellular pH, and great cardiac vein lactate. Design: Prospective laboratory study with controlled reperfusion. Setting: Research laboratory at a university medical center. Subjects: Five swine weighing 19±3 kg. Interventions: Ten minutes of nonperfused ventricular fibrillation followed by reperfusion with cardiopulmonary bypass (flow 30 mL/kg/min) for 50 mins. Measurements and Main Results: Myocardial adenosine triphosphate (ATP), phosphocreatine, and intracellular pH were determined using in vivo 31 P nuclear magnetic resonance. Myocardial blood flow, measured by 15-μ radiolabeled microspheres, was significantly increased above baseline during reperfusion. Phosphocreatine was depleted during the 10 mins of nonperfused ventricular fibrillation, but recovered to 122±18% of baseline with reperfusion and was 112±18% at 60 mins (p
