Dynamics of myocardial oxygen consumption and coronary vascular resistance

F. L. Belloni and H. V. Sparks

Coronary vascular resistance may be regulated in part by substances whose concentrations are determined by or reflect the rate of myocardial oxygen consumption (e.g., adenosine, vessel wall PO2). We tested this hypothesis by comparing the time course of changes in myocardial oxygen consumption and coronary vascular resistance following 20 beat/min changes in heart rate. Main left coronary arteries of in situ dog hearts were perfused with blood at constant flow. Coronary sinus O2 content was monitored continuously with a densitometer and reflected the time course of changes in oxygen consumption and also the effects of vascular transit between tissue and the coronary sinus. These transit effects were estimated from dye transit curves and added to the time course of changes in coronary perfusion pressure which was proportional to coronary vascular resistance at constant flow. Coronary sinus O2 content changes preceded the adjusted time course of vascular resistance. This supports the hypothesis that coronary vascular resistance is regulated in part by factors closely linked to oxidative metabolism.
