The turnover rate of coronary blood, the reciprocal value of the mean transit time, can be accurately determined by computer simulation analysis of coronary dye dilution curves. After intravenous dipyridamole (0.5 mg/kg) both coronary turnover rate and electromagnetically assessed blood flow were observed to increase in parallel and to the same degree (+55%). This indicates that no increase in the coronary vascular volume and, accordingly, no significant overall coronary dilatation takes place. The effective coronary blood flow in relation to the myocardial oxygen consumption, i.e. the nutritional flow, and the myocardial oxygen consumption decreased by 25% concomitant to a corresponding fall in myocardial oxygen requirements.

There was a linear increase of blister fluid activity with time after injection and the mean accumulation rate of the six subjects was 0.9 +/- 0.4 (SD)%/h. It is suggested that this figure is a representative measure of the leakage of albumin through the skin microvasculature. In previous studies, a ten-fold higher accumulation rate of albumin was found when the protein tracer was administered intravenously before the suction was induced. This difference was probably due to a suction-induced increase of the filtration gradient across the skin vessels.

In 19 experiments, the measurements were performed during rest, before and after bicycling and during circulatory arrest during an occlusion cuff pressure of 240-250 mmHg. The disappearance rates measured by the two detector systems showed a linear correlation (r = 0.934, P less than 0.001). However, the rate constants measured by the CdTe(Cl) detector were an average of 1.48 times the values obtained by the NaI(Tl) detector during a period of 1-4 h after the injection. The coefficient of variation of the proportionality factor is 3.3%. Only the central part of the local depot area is exposed to the CdTe(Cl) detector. Using the NaI(Tl) detector and lead shielding of the peripheral or central part of the depot area, it was demonstrated that the disappearance rates obtained reflect the measuring geometries. The correction itself is therefore due to differences in the measuring geometries of the two detector types, and possibly to diffusion and convection of xenon.

Five methodological investigations important to clinical use were carried out: (1) In five normal legs and 10 legs with arterial occlusive disease (AOD), 131I- -antipyrine (131I- -a.p.) was compared to Na(131I-) and 99Tcm-pertechnetate (99Tcm). The average SPP by 131I- -a.p. and by 131I- were approximately equal, 57.0 mmHg (range 18-93) compared to 56.3 mmHg (range 13-88) (P greater than 0.1). The average SPP by 99Tcm was just slightly higher, 60.3 mmHg (range 18-98) (P less than 0.02). The average washout constant for the three different tracers were approximately equal and correlated statistically significant with the SPP; (2) In 59 legs with AOD, segmental SPP was compared to segmental systolic blood pressures on the thigh, calf, ankle and first digit (strain gauge technique). The two different methods correlated statistically significant at all four levels, but the systolic blood pressures were higher than the SPP in particular in diabetic legs; (3) Angiograms in 35 legs with AOD showed that the SPP on the ankle was only consistently decreased in legs with arterial occlusions at two levels or more; (4) In 47 legs with AOD, the SPP on the calf or on the thigh was compared with transcutaneously measured pO2. The two different methods correlated statistically significant, but the scatter was great; (5) During induced variations in systemic blood pressure in seven patients (12 legs with AOD), the segmental SPP and the segmental systolic blood pressure were found on average to vary in proportion with intra-arterial mean and systolic pressure respectively; however, this proportional relationship was not valid for the individual leg. It is concluded that 99Tcm is as suitable as the 131I- -labelled tracers in estimating the SPP. The SPP is significantly correlated to skin blood flow, to systolic blood pressure, to tc pO2 and to angiographic findings. Correction of SPP for systemic blood pressure changes can be made in proportion with the measured variations in systemic mean blood pressure, but only for groups of patients.","PeriodicalId":77071,"journal":{"name":"Clinical physiology (Oxford, England)","volume":"3 4","pages":"313-24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1983-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/j.1475-097x.1983.tb00714.x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17740352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
