Intravenous dipyridamole combined with isometric handgrip for near maximal acute increase in coronary flow in patients with coronary artery disease.
Twenty-four patients with coronary artery disease were studied during cardiac catheterization to determine the effects of sustained isometric handgrip exercise and intravenous dipyridamole and their combination on coronary and systemic hemodynamics and measured coronary luminal caliber. During 4 to 5 minutes of 25 percent maximal handgrip, blood pressure and heart rate increased 24 and 19 percent, respectively, coronary sinus flow increased to 1.7 x baseline value, and epicardial coronary arteries constricted to increase predicted flow resistance by 40 percent in 36 diseased arterial segments. After a 4 minute intravenous infusion of dipyridamole (0.56 mg/kg body weight), systemic pressure decreased 8 percent, heart rate increased 23 percent, coronary sinus flow increased to 2.4 x baseline value and coronary luminal caliber was unchanged. During isometric handgrip initiated 6 minutes after the infusion of dipyridamole, systemic pressure and heart rate increased to 14 and 31 percent, respectively, above control values, coronary sinus flow increased to 3.3 x baseline value (3.8 x baseline value in patients with normal anterior perfusion) and stenotic flow resistance increased by 36 percent. The response of coronary flow to the combined stresses was 68 percent greater than the response to dipyridamole alone (p less than 0.02); these flow levels exceed values previously reported for the human coronary circulation. Aminophylline plus nitroglycerin appears to assure patient safety.
