title: [Relation between the occurrence of malignant arrhythmia during acute myocardial ischemia and the weight of ischemic myocardium in goats].
abstract: The coronary collateral circulation of goat is very spare, so myocardiac ischemia model of goat can simulate the patient previously with normal coronary circulation and suddenly developing complete occlusion of coronary arteries. In this study 80 Chengdu goats were used, and the branches of their left coronary artery were ligated. Ventricular tachycardia (VT) developed in 23 goats and ventricular fibrillation (VF) in 39 goats. VT and VF both occurred in the early phase of acute myocardial ischemia, and both had 6 min as the median time of onset. In 71 cases data on the weight of myocardiac ischemic area were collected, in which the weight percentage of ischemic area relating to the ventricles of 34 goats with VF was significantly higher than that of 37 goats without VF (35.4 +/- 2.4% vs 19.5 +/- 1.9%). After coronary ligation, 9 cases directly precipitated into VF which could not be defibrillated. In the remaining 62 cases, the weight percentage of ischemic area of 21 cases with VT was higher than that of 41 cases without VT (32.9 +/- 2.8% vs 20.9 +/- 2.1%). The relationships between the incidence of VT or VF and the weight percentage of ischemic area were fitted with logistic curve. The likelihood of occurrence of VT or VF is increased as the weight percentage of ischemia area goes up.
