DOBUTAMINE STRESS HAS LIMITED VALUE FOR ENHANCING FLOW HETEROGENEITY IN THE PRESENCE OF A MODERATE STENOSIS: IMPLICATIONS FOR TC99H-SESTAMIBI IMAGING JJ Yun, JC Wu, EN Heller, L Deckelbaum, DP Dione, YH Liu, FJTh Wackers, AJ Sinusas. Yale Univ., New Haven CT, USA Dobutamine (DUB} is used in conjunction with Tc99msestamibi (MB) imaging to produce flow {FL) hetergeneity. TO validate this pharmacological approach, we injected MB and radiolabeled microspheres (MS) in 6 open chest dogs during peak DOB stress {i0 ~g/kg/min) in the presence of a moderate (30 m ~ g gradient) LCX stenosis {STEN). MS were also injected at baseline (EASE), and during STEN Pre-DOB. Hearts were excised 20 min after MB injection, and cut into 96 or 192 segments for ganm~ well counting, for determination of MB activity and MS F L Coronary FL reserve in response to i.e. adenosine (18Zg) was 2.44• at BASE and 1.24• during STEN (p<0.05}. DOB increased heart rate (Pre-DOB:ll2• DOB:141• P<0.05), but did not change mean aortic pressure (Pre-DOB:80• DOB:95• p-ns). FL (ml/min/gm) and MB for nonischemic (NI) and ischemic (IS) regions were: (mean++SEM) IS FL NI FL IS/NI FL IS/NI M~ BASE 0.88+0,13 0.96• 0.93~0.02 --STEN 0.58f0.14 0,97• 0.59• --DUB 1.02i0.37 1.87• 0.5290.12# 0.70• ^ *p<0.05 vs STEN; #p-ns vs STEN; ^p<0.05 vs IS/NI EL DUB increased FE in both NI and IS regions. MB correlated with FL (MB-0.69FL+0.47,r=0.66) when FL was less than 1 ml/min/gm. At higher FL (i to 4.8 ml/min/gm) MB did not correlate with FL (MB=0.04FL+0.94, r-0.13). MB underestimated the FL deficit. Thus, DUB MB imaging may be of limited value, since (i) DOS does not augment FL heterogeneity in the presence of a moderate STEN, and (2) M B d o e s not correlate with FL at the higher FL induced by DUB.

Whole body exercise thallium scintigraphy can detect silent i n t e r e x t r e m i t y a s y m m e t r y in a b o u t 60% of patients with coronary a r t e r y disease.The aim of this study was to determine the influence of age, smoking and coronary a r t e r y disease on the d i s t r i b u t i o n of thallium 201 at the level o f legs in 138 p a t i e n t s . In group 1 were included 14 heavy smokers ( more than 28 pack years ) with (n=51) or w i t h o u t coronary artery disease ln=23) anti in group 2 64 non smokers without coronary a r t e r y disease.

Hemodynamic effects of arbutamine (ARB), using a closed-loop delivery system, were studied in 14 pts with chest pain syndrome in the catheterization laboratory. The HR, aortic and pulmonary pressures, LV dP/dT, and thermodilution cardiac output (CO) were measured at baseline, peak stress, and during reeovery. Results: Coronary angiography showed >50% stenosis in 8 pts (Gpl) and 0-49% in 6 pts (Gp2). During ARB infusion, the 14 pts had a HR J" from 76:s to 115 • beats/rain (p=0.0001), aortic systolic pressure $ from 149:t:20 to 121+29 mmHg (p=0.0009), PCW mean $ from 13• to 9• mmHg (p=0.0022), LV dP/dT 1" from 1296• to 2357• mmHg/see (p=0.0001), and Total SVR $ from 1372• to 713a:278 dynes-sec-cm 4 (p=0.0001). In Gpl pts, cardiac output 1" from 6.3• to 9.2• L/min at peak ARB effect (p=0.0004). In Gp2 pts, COJ" from 7.4• to 12,2• L/rain at peak ARB effect (p=0.0047). Gp2 demonstrated a greater ~ in CO at peak ARB effect than Gpl (p=0.032). 8 pts in Gpl developed angina during ARB (p<0.002) but no significant ECG changes, Sestamibi scan was abnormal in 6/8 pts in Gpl and 1/6 pts in Gp2. Conclusions: ARe produces significant chronotropic (1" HR), inotropie (1" CO and LV dP/dT), and vasodilatory (4, Total SVR) effects in patients with and without CAD.
