Exercise training reduces ischemic myocardial dysfunction
Article Abstract:
This article discusses a study designed to test whether exercise training improves myocardial blood flow and myocardial contractile function during coronary artery occlusion (CAO), using dogs as laboratory specimens. Results show that dogs which were exercised had greater border zone perfusion during longer prolonged CAO than dogs which were subjected to cage rest, leading to improved myocardial contractile function.
