Myocardial protection during aortocoronary bypass. 1979

R V Teesalu, and T A Sulling, and U E Keis, and R A Masso, and A J Paju, and A A Planken, and V J Mölder, and R H Lai

The authors analyze the results of 220 applications of internal cold cardioplegia in 136 patients with ischaemic heart disease, treated surgically by aortocoronary bypass. The operation was performed under neuroleptanalgesia and artificial circulation with hypothermia (27.9 +/- 0.2 degrees C) and haemodilution (24.9 +/- 0.3%). On the basis of clinical examination, electron microscopy of the myocardial ultrastructure, and investigation of the myocardial metabolism (contents of glucose, lactate, pyruvate, free fatty acids, catecholamines, and oxygen in arterial and venous blood flowing out of the myocardium), they come to the conclusion that internal cold cardioplegia efficiently protects the myocardium during aortocoronary bypass and secures favourable conditions for the development of anastomoses between coronary arteries and venous shunts.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007036 Hypothermia, Induced Abnormally low BODY TEMPERATURE that is intentionally induced in warm-blooded animals by artificial means. In humans, mild or moderate hypothermia has been used to reduce tissue damages, particularly after cardiac or spinal cord injuries and during subsequent surgeries. Induced Hypothermia,Mild Hypothermia, Induced,Moderate Hypothermia, Induced,Targeted Temperature Management,Therapeutic Hypothermia,Hypothermia, Therapeutic,Induced Mild Hypothermia,Induced Mild Hypothermias,Induced Moderate Hypothermia,Induced Moderate Hypothermias,Mild Hypothermias, Induced,Moderate Hypothermias, Induced,Targeted Temperature Managements
D007773 Lactates Salts or esters of LACTIC ACID containing the general formula CH3CHOHCOOR.
D009206 Myocardium The muscle tissue of the HEART. It is composed of striated, involuntary muscle cells (MYOCYTES, CARDIAC) connected to form the contractile pump to generate blood flow. Muscle, Cardiac,Muscle, Heart,Cardiac Muscle,Myocardia,Cardiac Muscles,Heart Muscle,Heart Muscles,Muscles, Cardiac,Muscles, Heart
D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D004837 Epinephrine The active sympathomimetic hormone from the ADRENAL MEDULLA. It stimulates both the alpha- and beta- adrenergic systems, causes systemic VASOCONSTRICTION and gastrointestinal relaxation, stimulates the HEART, and dilates BRONCHI and cerebral vessels. It is used in ASTHMA and CARDIAC FAILURE and to delay absorption of local ANESTHETICS.
