A left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion was produced in the sedated state in baboons previously instrumented with a left ventricular micromanometer and ultrasonic crystals measuring segmental myocardial lengths of control, marginal and ischemic regions. 3-8 days after the onset of the ischemia, nitroglycerin (0.4 mg IV) was injected. Following the injection (NG), heart rate increased significantly compared to the control ischemic state (CIS); end diastolic pressure and systolic pressure decreased significantly. In control segments, VCF increased from 0.99 +/- 0.11 circ/s to 1.26 +- 0.11 circ/s (p less than 0.01); in marginal segments VCF increased (CIS: 0.32 +/- 0.07 circ/s; NG: 0.42 +/- 0.09/s; p less than 0.01); in ischemic segments, the bulge observed before the injection persisted after nitroglycerin. Increased performances of control and marginal regions were attributed mainly to afterload reduction although preload reduction tended to decrease this response. The contribution of improved marginal function was small indicating that improvement of active hemodynamic function was largely due to changes in control segments function.
