作者利用Ⅱ导心电图、心音图、颈动脉搏动图、右（或左）心室阻抗微分心动图同步描记的方法。对人左、右心室阻抗微分心动图进行了比较分析。结果显示:人的左、右心室阻抗微分心动图图形相似，波形稳定，转折明显，均有清晰的生理标志点。两种图形各相应生理标志点在时相上存在着区别．且人的左、右心室阻抗微分心动图能分别反映人的左、右心室收缩和舒张过程，说明利用人的左、右心室阻抗微分心动图能分别测定人的左、右心室收缩时间间期与舒张时间间期值，鉴别和评定左、右心室的功能。

Myocardial cooling and right ventricular function in patients with right coronary artery disease: antegrade vs. retrograde cardioplegia

Background: Protection of the right ventricular (RV) myocardium during ischaemia in cardiac surgery is difficult, especially in patients with severe right coronary artery (RCA) disease. Retrograde coronary sinus cardioplegia is thought to distribute uniformly, but doubts still remain as to its adequacy in RV preservation. This study evaluated distribution of antegrade vs. exclusively retrograde coronary sinus cold blood cardioplegia by assessing myocardial cooling and compared the effects on RV function. Methods: Fifty-eight patients scheduled for elective coronary artery surgery - 29 patients with significant RCA disease and another 29 with no significant RCA stenosis (controls) - were randomised to receive either antegrade or retrograde cold blood cardioplegia through either aortic root or conventional self-inflating coronary sinus catheter (RCA-ante, RCA-retro, C-ante and C-retro groups). RV function was assessed by fast-response thermodilution. Myocardial temperatures were measured in the anterior and posterior wall of the right and left ventricle. Results: Cooling of the posterior wall of the RV was effective only in the control patients given antegrade cardioplegia (14.7°C), whereas in the other groups the lowest myocardial temperatures there remained above 20°C (RO.001). In patients with obstructed RCA both antegrade and retrograde cold cardioplegia led to uneven cooling of the myocardium. After cardiopulmonary bypass the RV ejection fraction (RVEF), RV stroke work index (RVSWI) and cardiac index (CI) were significantly reduced in the RCA-retro group, and RVSWI and CI in the C-retro group, too. Regression analysis showed an inverse relationship between the temperatures of the posterior walls of the ventricles and changes in the RVEF and CI. Conclusions: Retrograde and antegrade cardioplegia alone were not effective in reducing the temperature of the posterior wall of the RV in the patients with obstructed RCA, in whom with retrograde cardioplegia RV haemodynamics were impaired for 1 hour following bypass. Neither retrograde nor antegrade cardioplegia alone can be relied on to protect the posterior wall of the RV in the patients with obstructed RCA.     

Post-ischemic release of nucleosides and oxypurines in isolated rat hearts. Possible involvement of ventricular fibrillation

Summary In isolated perfused rat hearts global ischemia for 2, 5, and 15 min was produced. Depending on the duration of the ischemia, postischemic reperfusion led to the release of adenosine and its catabolites, and to more or less severe ventricular tachyarrhythmias. When ventricular fibrillation occurred, a highly significant increase in the purine release was observed compared with non-fibrillating hearts. Prevention of fibrillation by antiarrhythmic drugs decreased the purine release in a highly significant way. After only 2 min of ischemia, reperfusion did not lead to ventricular fibrillation. Electrical induction of fibrillation during the reperfusion in these hearts provoked the release of very high amounts of the purine compounds. A similar effect of electrically-induced fibrillation was also obtained in hearts without a previous ischemic period. The findings suggest that ventricular fibrillation is able to induce the release of purine derivatives from the heart.

Electrophysiologic mechanisms of ventricular arrhythmias

In this work the electrophysiologic mechanisms of ventricular arrhythmias have been briefly summarized. Ventricular arrhytmias can be caused either by pacemaker activity or by reentrant excitation. Enhancement of normal automaticy can generate a parasystolic rhythm in normal fibers. Abnormal automaticity may arise fom fibers in which maximum diastolic potential has been reduced by a variety of interventions. Triggered activity is caused by either an early (EAD) or delayed (DAD) afterdepolarization and requires a prior normal action potential for initiation. While there is growing evidence that EAD-induced triggered activity plays a significant role in the Long QTU syndrome and Torsade de Pointes, no clinical arrhythmias has definitely been ascribed to DADs, although DADs have been recorded in man after acute digoxin intoxication.Ventricular arrhytmias can be also caused by reentrant excitation, which can be subdivided into reflection or circus movement reentry (CMR). In the reflection model impulses in both directions are transmitted over the same pathway. In the CMR three models can be differentiated: the ring model, which requires a fixed anatomical obstacle; the figure-eight model and the leading circle model, where functional rather than fixed anatomical obstacles are involved.Abbreviations AV atrio-ventricular - CMR circus movement reentry - DAD delayed afterdepolarization - EAD early afterdepolarization - ECG electrocardiogram - LV left ventricle - MAP monophasic action potential - MF muscle fiber - PF Purkinje fiber - RV right ventricle - TdP Torsade de Pointes     

An uncommon cause of acute right ventricular failure and high mixed venous oxygen saturation

Ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysms are rare. We report a case in which the usual clinical manifestations were not present and the patient was initially treated as an acute pulmonary embolus. Despite three negative echocardiograms an intra-cardiac shunt was suspected because of a persistently elevated mixed venous oxygen saturation. Cardiac catheterisation confirmed the diagnosis. Surgical repair was performed and post operative recovery was uneventful.
