Abstract
Coronary blood flow, left ventricular diastolic stiffness, ventricular water content and ventricular thiocyanate space were investigated in empty fibrillating and empty beating dog hearts during cardiopulmonary bypass. In empty fibrillating hearts coronary blood flow was considerably enhanced even at levels of normal perfusion pressure. A close correlation was demonstrated between enhanced coronary flow, left ventricular diastolic stiffness, tissue water content and thiocyanate space.Entities:
