Background: A preclinical model standardized at different remodeling stages after AV block induction in awake state is suitable for the evaluation of improved cardiac devices. We studied exercise-induced cardiorespiratory parameters at three different timepoints after inducing AV block in dogs. Methods: Mongrel dogs (n = 12) were placed on a treadmill with a 10% incline and performed a moderate exercise protocol (10-minute run at 6 km/h). Dogs ran at sinus rhythm (SR), at two days (AVB2d, initiation of remodeling), three weeks (CAVB3) and six weeks (CAVB6, completed remodeling) after AV block. Results: All dogs completed the exercise protocol at SR, CAVB3 and CAVB6, while 6/12 dogs at AVB2d failed to complete the exercise protocol. The atrial rate was higher at all AV block timepoints (126 ± 20 to 141 ± 19 bpm at rest and 221 ± 10 to 231 ± 13 bpm during exercise) compared to SR (100 ± 29 bpm at rest and 162 ± 28 bpm during exercise, p |
