Key result
100% oxygen increases ischemic myocardial blood flow ~14% in dogs with acute coronary occlusion.
Why the study?
The mechanism by which oxygen reduces infarct size was not completely understood.
Does ventilation with 100% oxygen improve regional myocardial blood flow in an experimental dog model of acute coronary artery occlusion?
Population
23 anaesthetised open-chest dogs with acute LAD or apical branch occlusion
Comparison
Ventilation with 100% oxygen vs continuous room air
Design
Controlled animal experimental study
Follow-up
30 min following coronary artery occlusion

Does not support hyperoxia in acute coronary syndromes; leaves open translation of perfusion gains to human infarct reduction.
Does ventilation with 100% oxygen improve regional myocardial blood flow in an experimental dog model of acute coronary artery occlusion?

Ventilation with 100% oxygen augments perfusion of the ischaemic myocardium in an experimental dog model of acute coronary occlusion, suggesting a mechanism for infarct size reduction.
RIBEIRO et al. (1979) studied Experimental acute coronary artery occlusion (n=23). 100% oxygen inhalation vs. Room air was evaluated on Regional myocardial blood flow in ischaemic sites (cm3 . min-1 . 100g-1) (p=<0.05). In dogs with acute coronary occlusion, ventilation with 100% oxygen increased regional myocardial blood flow in ischaemic sites from 28 to 32 cm3/min/100g (P<0.05).
