dc.description.abstract | The isovolumic index is a recently described echocardiographic parameter of left ventricular function that is calculated as the ratio between the sum of the time of isovolumic contraction and relaxation divided by the ejection time. Although the individual components of this index may be altered by heart rate and loading conditions, an analysis of the net effect of such alterations on the isovolumic index has not been undertaken. Thus, dogs were instrumented with high-fidelity micromanometers in the left ventricle, ascending aorta, and left atrium to allow determination of the individual comoonents of the isovolumic index and calculation of the index itself. Four sets of experiments were undertaken in random order. Left atrial pacing was used to increase heart rate by approximately 10 bpm in five steps. Preload was elevated in five stages by saline infusions which caused successive increases of 1 to 2 mm Hg in the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. Systolic blood pressure was lowered or raised by approximately 10 mm Hg per stage by three progressive, steady-state infusions of nitroprusside and phenylephrine, respectively. These experiments demonstrated little change in the isovolumic index over a broad range of heart rate. Increased left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and decreased systemic pressure caused shortening of the index. Multiple regression analysis of all experiments yielded the following: isovolumic INDEX = 0.41 - 0.015 (left ventricular end-diastolic pressure) + 0.004 (systolic blood pressure); r = 0.57, standard ERROR = 0.13, p < 0.0001. Therefore, this investigation establishes the hemodynamic determinants of the isovolumic index and provides the basis for interpretation of directional changes in response to cardiac diseases and cardioactive drugs that can alter loading conditions. | en_US |
