Effect of myocardial ischemia on prostacyclin and thromboxane levels in arterial and coronary venous blood

Variations in arterial and venous blood prostacyclin and thromboxane were examined in 32 patients with coronary heart disease, neurocirculatory dystonia and the cardialgic syndrome, exposed to cardioselective stress as a result of the atrial stimulation test. Prostacyclin and thromboxane measurement...

Summary:Variations in arterial and venous blood prostacyclin and thromboxane were examined in 32 patients with coronary heart disease, neurocirculatory dystonia and the cardialgic syndrome, exposed to cardioselective stress as a result of the atrial stimulation test. Prostacyclin and thromboxane measurement in blood specimens obtained from the left ventricle and the coronary venous network may provide additional markers of myocardial ischemia in cases where diagnosis is otherwise difficult to make.
