Computer simulations of the myocardial mechanics and hemodynamics of rest and exercise were performed in nine patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and 10 control subjects, with the use of data from invasive catheterization and from cardiac magnetic resonance. This approach allowed a detailed analysis of myocardial adaptation to pulmonary arterial hypertension and showed how reduction in right ventricular inotropic reserve is the important limiting factor for an increase in cardiac output during exercise.

We investigated whether one or more factors control performance in O2-limited hearts. For this purpose, we measured the dynamics of myocardial adaptation to reduced O2 supply with a specially designed setup, analyzing early changes after reduction in either flow of the perfusion medium or its PO2. For 10 min, 38 isolated rat hearts underwent low-flow ischemia or hypoxemia, matched for O2 supply. Early during ischemia, developed pressure declined at a rate of 311 +/- 25 mmHg/s; lactate release increased and then leveled off to 3.4 +/- 0.7 mumol/min within 2 min. During hypoxemia, pressure dropped initially, as observed during ischemia. However, it then increased before slowly decreasing. Lactate release during hypoxemia peaked at 13.0 +/- 2.3 mumol/min after 2 min, leveling off to 3.5 +/- 1.3 mumol/min. Glycogen decreased by 52 and 81% in ischemic and hypoxemic hearts, respectively (P < 0.05). Reexposure to ischemia or hypoxemia induced comparable changes in both groups. We conclude that, at the beginning of ischemia, a single factor does limit myocardial performance. This variable, which remains undisturbed for 10 min, is presumably O2 availability. In contrast, approximately 20 s after induction of hypoxemia, glycolytic ATP production can partially override low O2 availability by providing most of the energy needed. During repeated restriction of O2 supply, O2 availability alone limits performance during both ischemia and hypoxemia.
