[Effect of hyperbaric oxygenation on several functional and morphologic properties of the heart and catecholamine metabolism in the presence of compensatory myocardial hypertrophy].
Rabbits subjected to hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) for one month following ascending aorta stenosis developed less distinct hypertrophy and signs of myocardial dystrophy with a more distinct enhancement of the left ventricular contractility than animals with aortic stenosis kept under normal pressure. In rabbits with heart hypertrophy developing under HBO the increasing adaptive capacity of the myocardium was accompanied by an elevation in functional reserve of the sympathetic regulation apparatus. Apparently HBO aided the development of the optimum cardiac adaptation to a high afterload.
