Abstract

AIM: The effects of BDM on isolated rat heart in cold cardioplegia were studied METHODS: Rat heart were subjected to cold cardioplegia at 4℃ for 8, 18 and 24 h Then each heart was perfused (90 cm H 2O) in Langendorff model at 37℃ for 40 min In the high K + group( n =24) the hearts were preserved in St Thomas cardioplegic solution, in BDM group( n =24) hearts were preserved in K-H solution with BDM 30 mmoL/L RESULTS: After 18 h, heart rate and the coronary flow in BDM group were significantly higher than in high K + group( P
