Abstract:
:Data from experiments in isolated cardiac muscle preparations indicate that adenosine in high concentration (10(-3) mol X litre-1) exerts a negative inotropic effect on the myocardium under basal conditions. The following study was performed to test the hypothesis that adenosine exerts a similar negative inotropic effect when administered in an intact animal model in a dose sufficient to cause maximal coronary vasodilatation. Six open chest anaesthetised pigs were studied as follows. Ultrasonic length sensors were placed in the endocardium of the free wall of the left ventricle in a region perfused by the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. Large increases in endocardial blood flow in response to adenosine administration, which could enhance segmental function ("garden hose effect"), were prevented by inserting an artificial stenosis (73% reduction in lumenal diameter) in the proximal third of the LAD. Measurements of haemodynamics, regional myocardial blood flow (microsphere technique), and regional systolic function were made at control 1, at the end of 10 min of intracoronary adenosine infusion (3.0 mumol X min-1) at a dose which exceeded that previously shown to cause maximal coronary vasodilatation and at second control 20 to 40 min after discontinuation of adenosine infusion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
