[Effect of sodium oxybutyrate on macroergic phosphates, function and ultrastructure of the myocardium in blood loss]. 1984

G A Boiarinov, and N A Shvets, and L B Snopova, and N V Khvorov

Experiments on dogs with long-term hypotony caused by blood loss have demonstrated irreversible lesions in the majority of cardiomyocytes and hypodynamic condition of the heart with a high content of macroergic phosphates in the myocardium. Intravenous injection of sodium hydroxybutyrate in a dose of 180-200 mg/kg after 60 min of hypotony seems to improve energy transport and utilization in the ischemic myocardium. It increases the working capacity and power of the heart muscle, pump function of the heart and makes longer the period of ultrastructural changes in cardiomyocytes.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007022	Hypotension	Abnormally low BLOOD PRESSURE that can result in inadequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. Common symptom is DIZZINESS but greater negative impacts on the body occur when there is prolonged depravation of oxygen and nutrients.

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.
