Adverse influence of systemic vascular stiffening on cardiac dysfunction and adaptation to acute coronary occlusion

Circulation

Abstract

[corrected] Age is an independent risk factor for increased mortality from ischemic heart disease. Arterial stiffening with widening of the pulse pressure may contribute to this risk by exacerbating cardiac dysfunction after total coronary artery occlusion. To test the above hypothesis, 14 open-chest dogs underwent surgery in which the intrathoracic aorta was bypassed with a stiff plastic tube. Directing ventricular outflow through the bypass widened the arterial pulse pressure from 41 to 115 mm Hg at similar mean pressure and flow. Hearts ejecting into the native aorta (NA) exhibited only modest dysfunction after two minutes of mid-left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion. However, the same occlusion applied during ejection into the bypass tube (BT) induced far more severe cardiodepression (ie, systolic pressure fell by -41+/-10 mm Hg for BT versus -15+/-3 mm Hg for NA, and end-systolic volume rose by 15+/-3 versus 6+/-2 mL), with a threefold greater decline in ejection fraction. This disparity was not due to higher baseline work loads because total pressure-volume area was similar in both cases. Furthermore, marked increases in basal work load and wall stress induced by angiotensin II infusion (in four additional st...Continue Reading
