Implication

Supports electrogenic Na pump in feline myocardium; leaves open human cardiac relevance.

Structured PICO

Population

Cat heart muscles (ventricular and atrial)

Intervention

Rewarming to 37°C after prolonged preservation in normal Tyrode's solution at 4°C, with exposure to various agents (KCl, epinephrine, norepinephrine, Li, Ouabain, DNP, sodium azide)

Outcome

Transmembrane potentials during rewarmingsurrogate

Observations of cat heart muscle transmembrane potentials during rewarming after hypothermia support the hypothesis of an electrogenic sodium pump.
