Published: November 1997

Effect of oxyfedrine (OXF)(1 mg/kg) administered just before reperfusion (post-treatment) was investigated in a canine model of myocardial stunning. In the saline-treated animals, myocardial stunning was evidenced by fall in MAP, decrease in LV peak (+) dP/dt, rise in LVEDP and incomplete regeneration of myocardial ATP, after reperfusion. OXF was found to be effective in preventing the haemodynamic and metabolic changes associated with myocardial stunning.
