Pathogenesis and pathophysiology of ischemic heart disease. 1981

C R Conti, and R L Feldman, and C J Pepine

Animal experiments illustrating the effects of coronary artery disease are described. These experiments show marked blunting of reactive hyperremia with 80% of narrowing, and markedly decreased resting blood flow with 90% narrowing of the coronary artery. With 60% stenosis, blunting of hyperemic response occurs with a 5 mm long stenosis and decreased resting blood flow with a 10 mm long stenosis. Further reduction of resting blood flow is demonstrated with serial narrowing. In 6 patients with variant angina, resting myocardial blood flow decreased during episodes of spontaneous angina. Similar results were found in 13 patients with variant angina after ergonovine administration.

D001783 Blood Flow Velocity A value equal to the total volume flow divided by the cross-sectional area of the vascular bed. Blood Flow Velocities,Flow Velocities, Blood,Flow Velocity, Blood,Velocities, Blood Flow,Velocity, Blood Flow
D003326 Coronary Circulation The circulation of blood through the CORONARY VESSELS of the HEART. Circulation, Coronary
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.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
