Questions reliance on nonischemic compensatory shortening to preserve ejection during acute ischemia; leaves open translation to clinical settings.
During acute ischemia, apparent hyperfunction of nonischemic areas is expended in stretching the ischemic zone rather than providing compensatory ejection shortening.
Lew et al. (1985) studied this question.
