Hepatic blood flow in acute myocardial ischemia.
Hepatic blood flow was monitored in cats during myocardial ischemia (MI). Increased plasma CPK activity, the S-T segment of the electrocardiogram, and hepatic flow was reduced by 5 h to 40% of control. The results suggest that MI can influence organs distant from the original ischemic episode.
