Hypothesis-generating in canines; leaves open whether postextrasystolic potentiation offsets extrasystolic effects in humans.
In a canine model, postextrasystolic potentiation provides a positive inotropic effect that partially compensates for the hemodynamic depression caused by extrasystoles.
Takada et al. (1970) studied this question.
