Abstract:
:The purpose of this study was to determine whether myocardium salvaged by reperfusion following coronary occlusion could respond to inotropic stimulation by dopamine. Mongrel dogs underwent a 2-hour occlusion of the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery, followed by reperfusion for 5 or 28 hours. Dopamine (5 to 10 micrograms/kg/min) or dextrose was administered 1 hour or 24 hours after the onset of reperfusion. Serial, computer-assisted, two-dimensional echocardiographic determination of percentage of systolic wall thickening (%SWT) and cross-sectional ejection fraction (% delta area) were used to evaluate the response to treatment. Myocardium in the region of central ischemia contracted poorly after 1 hour of reperfusion (mean %SWT = 1.3 +/- 13.3% [mean +/- SD] compared to preocclusion value of 43.6 +/- 18.5%, p less than 0.001) and tended to thin at 24 hours of reperfusion (mean %SWT = -6.0 +/- 12.3%, p less than 0.001). After 1 hour of reperfusion, dopamine produced a greater than fourfold improvement in %SWT within the reperfused zone (to 15.3 +/- 7.3%, p less than 0.05). After 24 hours of reperfusion, dopamine again produced an improvement in %SWT (to 5.8 +/- 12.5%, p less than 0.05). There were no significant changes in %SWT with dextrose infusion. Thus, dopamine stimulates the reperfusion-salvaged but noncontracting (stunned) myocardium to contract as early as 1 hour after reperfusion.
