This study was experimentally undertaken to evaluate the effect of hypothermic oxygenated cardioplegic solution on myocardial protection during prolonged aortic cross clamping under cardiopulmonary bypass. Dogs were divided into two groups control group [received hypothermic unoxygenated cardioplegic solution] and experimental group [received hypothermic oxygenated cardioplegic solution]. Coronary sinus effluent was obtained at once and 30, 60, 90 minutes after cross-clamping for the determination of pH, PCO2,PO2 and lactate level during the infusion of cardioplegic solution and myocardial biopsies were obtained after cessation of 90 minutes of aortic cross-clamping. The results obtained were as follows: 1. There was no significant differences in the pH and PCO2 between the oxygenated and unoxygenated cardioplegic solution but the PO2 of the oxygenated solution was 4 times greater than unoxygenated solution, and also the oxygenated solution had a significantly greater oxygen content [2.020.05 ml 02/min] and had much more oxygen delivery than unoxygenated solution. 2. The myocardial oxygen consumption and the myocardial oxygen extraction in oxygenated group were 1.63 ml 02/100 ml and 67.32% respectively, which was greater than those in unoxygenated group. 3. Regarding to pH and PCO2 of coronary sinus effluent, there was no significant differences between two groups in early period of infusion of cardioplegic solution, but the pH shifted to acidosis from 60 minutes, PCO2 increased from 90 minutes of aortic cross-clamping, and PO2 markedly decreased from 90 minutes of aortic cross-clamping in unoxygenated group. 4. The lactate concentration of coronary sinus effluent revealed relatively normal in both groups, but showed slight increase up to 27.54.56 mg/100 ml at 90 minutes of aortic cross-clamping in unoxygenated group. 5. On electron microscopic study, the ultrastructural integrity of myocardial cells in oxygenated group was well preserved within 90 minutes. Slight swelling and deformity of mitochondria, interfibrillar widening, and disarrangement of myofibrils were observed at 90 minutes after aortic cross-clamping in unoxygenated group. From these results, the use of hypothermic oxygenated cardioplegic solution seemed to be effective and better method for the preservation of ischemic myocardium during the prolonged aortic cross-clamping.

Although anoxic cardiac arrest produces a dry, quiet field, the ability of the myocardium to withstand the anoxic insult is uncertain. The current growth of interest in the use of various cardioplegic solutions ` has resulted in the development of a number of different solutions. In this study, 51 consecutive cases of elective open heart surgery with the aid of extracorporeal circulation were reviewed retrospectively to compare two methods of myocardial preservation. All of these open heart operations had been performed, using hemodilution principle under the moderate hypothermia at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, College of Medicine, Kyungpook National University from December, 1975 to July, 1979. In the 31 consecutive cases that form the anoxic arrest group, the operations were done with intermittent aortic cross-clamping and topical cardiac hypothermia. The heart was cooled topically by cold normal saline, which was converted to ice slush before application to the pericardial sac. Twenty of 51 consecutive cases were assigned to the cold cardioplegic method [the cardioplegic group], in which two kinds of cold cardioplegic solutions [Young solution and G IK solution] were infused into the aortic root proximal to the aortic cross clamp for myocardial preservation. Mean total aortic cross clamp times were 43 minutes in the anoxic arrest group and 67 minutes in the cardioplegic group. In the post-operative period, spontaneous regular heart beatings were recovered in 80 percent of the cardioplegic group as opposed to 25.7 percent of the anoxic arrest group. Ventricular fibrillation requiring DC shock was seen in 32.3 percent of the anoxic arrest group and 10 percent of the cardioplegic group. In the cardioplegic group, mean CPK-MB was one positive value on the first post-operative day, and mean LDH 1 was elevated to 51 0 units/ml on the 2nd post-operative day. These results indicate that protecting the myocardium with cold cardioplegia is superior to use of the anoxic cardiac arrest.

An in vitro model providing with a recirculating perfusion apparatus using an isolated canine heart and its autogenous blood, which was prepared for study of myocardial protection method. This apparatus was easily used by quick connect system and maintained well heart function for about 2 hours. The Langendorff perfusion was initiated for a 10 minute period by introducing perfusate at 37` into the aorta from aortic reservoir located 100 cm above the heart. The isolated perfused working canine heart model was a left heart preparation in which oxygenated perfusion medium [at 37K] entered the cannulated left atrium at a constant flow rate [900ml/ min] under 20 mmHg overflow system and was spontaneously ejected[no electrical pacing] via an cannula against a hydrostatic pressure of 80 cm H2O. During this working period, various indices of cardiac function were measured. The cardiac functions were stable for over 2 hours with perfusion of Krebs-Henseleit solution and autologous blood[1:1] mixture in volume and maintained heart rate ]]3-122/bpm peak systolic pressure 109-113 mmHg, cardiac output 900 ml / min and left atrial mean pressure 8-9 mmHg. In this model, the efficiency of myocardia] protection could be easily measured by means of functional, enzymatic, biochemical and ultrastructural assessment. And also, we believe this model to be a useful assessment screening model of recovery state after long duration of myocardial preservation of donor heart without difficult transplantation procedures.

Potassium cardioplegia for myocardial preservation is being used extensively in open heart surgery. This study was designed to investigate the change in serum and urine potassium before, during, after the administration of cold blood potassium cardioplegic solution containing 28-30 mEq/L [28.6\ulcorner.56 mEq/L] of potassium chloride in 6 dogs. Total potassium dose used in the study was 14.9\ulcorner.89 mEq/L [1.2 mEq/Kg]. Mean potassium level in serum was within normal limits. Urinary excretion of potassium decreased during bypass but increased after bypass and eventually exceeded the amount of potassium infused as cold blood potassium cardioplegic solution. While cold blood potassium cardioplegia is a safe and efficient method of myocardial protection, postoperative potassium level must be observed carefully in order to detect obligatory potassium excretion following open heart surgery.

In the present study, we investigated whether treatment with GBCK25 facilitated the recovery of hemodynamic parameters, left ventricle systolic pressure, left ventricular developed pressure, and electrocardiographic changes. GBCK25 significantly prevented the decrease in hemodynamic parameters and ameliorated the electrocardiographic abnormality. These results indicate that GBCK25 has distinct cardioprotective effects in rat heart.

The present study was designed to investigate the cardioprotective effects of Korean Red Ginseng extract (KRG) on isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiac injury in rats, particularly in regards to electrocardiographic changes, hemodynamics, cardiac function, serum cardiac enzymes, components of the myocardial antioxidant defense system, as well as inflammatory markers and histopathological changes in heart tissue. ISO (150 mg/kg, subcutaneous, two doses administered at 24-hour intervals) treatment induced significant decreases in P waves and QRS complexes (p<0.01), as well as a significant increase in ST segments. Moreover, ISO-treated rats exhibited decreases in left-ventricular systolic pressure, maximal rate of developed left ventricular pressure ($+dP/dt_{max}$) and minimal rate of developed left ventricular pressure ($-dP/dt_{max}$), in addition to significant increases in lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase and creatine kinase activity. Heart rate, however, was not significantly altered. And the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase were decreased, whereas the activity of malondialdehyde was increased in the ISO-treated group. ISO-treated group also showed increased caspase-3 level, release of inflammatory markers and neutrophil infiltration in heart tissue. KRG pretreatment (250 and 500 mg/kg, respectively) significantly ameliorated almost all of the parameters of heart failure and myocardial injury induced by ISO. The protective effect of KRG on ISO-induced cardiac injury was further confirmed by histopathological study. In this regard, ISO treatment induced fewer morphological changes in rats pretreated with 250 or 500 mg/kg of KRG. Compared with the control group, all indexes in rats administered KRG (500 mg/kg) alone were unaltered (p>0.05). Our results suggest that KRG significantly protects against cardiac injury and ISO-induced cardiac infarction by bolstering antioxidant action in myocardial tissue.

Donor availability is a major limiting factor in heart transplantation. Prolonging donor heart preservation would facilitate distant heart procurement. The setup used was the isolated retrograde perfused nonworking rabbit heart model and 4 hours of preservation at 2oC. And the electron microscopic findings of the myocardium were evaluated after reperfusion for 5 minutes. The following three groups [each group, n=4] were prepared: Group I: the heart was arrested with the St. Thomas Hospital solution [STH] and stored in Ringers lactate solution [RLS]; Group II: the heart was arrested with STH and stored in Modified Collins-Sachs solution [MCS]; Group g: the heart was arrested with and stored in MCS. The result was the most severe myocardial injury in the Group III on electron microscopic study.

배경: HTK 용액은 우수한 심근보호 효과를 나타내는 것으로 알려져 왔다. HTK 용액은 비교적 낮은 농도의 칼륨으로 심정지를 유도하고, 저농도의 나트륨을 함유하며, 혈액보다 우수한 완충능을 제공하는 생물학적 완충제인 histidine을 다량 포함하는 것이 특징이다. HTK 용액의 심근보호 효과는 우수하여 1회 주입으로 상당한 시간(120분) 허혈로부터 심근을 보호한다고 보고되었다. 이 연구는 두 가지 다른 심근온도(10∼12$^{\circ}C$, 22∼24$^{\circ}C$)하에서 심근 허혈이 120분을 초과할 때 HTK 용액의 심근보호 효과를 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 체중 300∼340 g의 Sprague-Dawley계 흰쥐의 심장을 적출 하여 Krebs-Henseleit용액으로 100 cm $H_2O$의 압력으로 관류시켰다. 안정화 후에 심박동수, 좌심실내압, 관 관류량을 측정하였다. 상행대동맥을 통하여 HTK 용액을 1회 주입 후 적출 심장을 각기 다른 4가지 방법으로 보존하였다. 제1군(n=10)은 10∼12$^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 2시간, 제2군(n=10)은 22∼24$^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 2시간, 제3군(n=10)은 10∼12$^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 3시간, 제4군(n=10)은 22∼24$^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 3시간 보존하였다. 보존을 끝낸 후 적출 심장을 다시 관류 장치에 연결하여 재관류 후 15분, 30분, 45분에 각 각 심박동수, 좌심실내압, 관 관류량을 측정하였다. 미세구조 변화를 평가하기 위하여 심근을 생검하여 사립체 점수를 측정하였다. 결과: 심박동수는 제1군과 2군, 제1군과 3군의 비교에서 차이가 없었다. 제4군에서 재관류 후 15분에서 심박동수가 제1군에 비하여 유의하게 감소하였으나(p<0.05 by ANCOVA), 30분, 45분에서 심박동수는 회복되었고 제1군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. 좌심실내압은 제4군에서 재관류 후 15분, 30분, 45분에서 제1군에 비해 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.001 by ANCOVA). 관 관류량은 제4군에서 재관류 후 15분, 30분, 45분에서 제1군에 비해 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.001 by ANCOVA). 미세구조 변화의 평가에서 심근의 평균 사립체 점수는 제1군 1.02$\pm$0.29, 제2군 1.52$\pm$0.26, 제3군 1.56$\pm$0.45, 제4군 2.22$\pm$0.44였다. 걸론: HTK 용액은 2시간의 심근 허혈에 대하여 심근 온도에 관계없이 우수한 심근보호 효과를 나타내나, 허혈시간이 2시간을 초과하면 심근의 혈역학적 기능과 미세구조의 변화는 중등도의 저온(22∼24$^{\circ}C$)에서 유의하게 악화되었다. 이 같은 결과로 볼 때 심근 허혈시간이 2시간을 초과한다면 심근 온도를 낮추어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
