Effect of Pacing-Induced Tachycardia and Myocardial Ischemia
نویسنده
چکیده
Ventricular function was evaluated in 18 patients prior to left ventriculography and selective coronary arteriography. Simultaneous left ventricular pressure (catheter-tip manometer) and dP/dt were recorded at resting heart rates and during tachycardia induced by right atrial pacing. Pressure-velocity curves were constructed from which Vmax and maximum measured contractile element velocity (max VCE) were obtained. Vmax and max VCE initially increased with pacing-induced tachycardia in 17 of the 18 patients. Eight patients developed evidence of myocardial ischemia during atrial pacing. During the period of myocardial ischemia there was a decrease in Vmax and

متن کاملAcute decrease in left ventricular diastolic chamber distensibility during simulated angina in isolated hearts.
It is not clear what factors contribute to the prompt and reversible decrease in left ventricular diastolic chamber distensibility during angina pectoris that is induced by an increase in myocardial energy demand due to exercise or pacing tachycardia. To simulate the demand ischemia that occurs clinically during pacing-induced angina, we used isolated, blood-perfused rabbit hearts with restrict...
متن کاملEffects of pretreatment with non hypotensive dose of ramiprilat and losartan on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion induced arrhythmias and infarct size in rats
Introduction: Inhibition of renin angiotensin system represents an important approach in the management of cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of pretreatment with non-hypotensive dose of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, ramiprilat and angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker, losartan on myocardial infarct size and arrhythmias in a rat mo...
متن کاملMyocardial blood flow in pacing-induced angina.
Current methods of measuring myocardial blood flow using 133xenon have failed to separate normals from patients with ischemic heart disease at rest. In the present study such a separation was attempted by utilizing pacing-induced tachycardia (PIT) to stress the myocardium. 133Xenon was injected into the left coronary artery to measure blood flow in 27 patients at rest and during pacing-induced ...
