Time course of functional deterioration after coronary artery ligation in rats.

The aim of this study was to investigate the time course of deterioration of functional capacity in the rat after ligation of the left coronary artery. Functional capacity was evaluated from the increase in blood lactate concentrations in 109 rats during a standardised treadmill test. Animals with myocardial infarction were compared with sham operated and normal controls. Functional capacity was followed during a 13 week period and estimations of the functional capacity were performed 1, 3, 7, 9 and 13 weeks after infarction. Coronary artery ligation produced a significant reduction in functional capacity, averaging 47% (p less than 0.01) over the first 3 weeks after myocardial infarction, irrespective of infarct size. In rats with large infarcts, functional capacity remained essentially unchanged throughout the observation period, but rats with small infarcts improved gradually until their measured exercise response was completely normal at the end of the 13 week period.
