    Mechanical heart assist normalized myocardial electrolytes in dogs with coronary occlusion. This, along with K-Mg-aspartate, improved cardiac function and reduced damage in heart failure models.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Biochemistry
    • Veterinary Medicine

    Background:

    • Myocardial electrolyte metabolism is significantly altered in secondary and primary cardiopathies.
    • Calcium (Ca) dysregulation plays a critical role in the progression of myocardial damage.
    • Experimental models in dogs and rats are used to study these metabolic shifts.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe shifts in myocardial electrolyte metabolism during cardiopathies.
    • To investigate the role of calcium in triggering cellular changes leading to energy depletion.
    • To evaluate therapeutic interventions for normalizing myocardial ion balance and improving cardiac function.

    Main Methods:

    • Induction of experimental coronary occlusion in dogs.
    • Application of a combined mechanical heart assist device (bypass and counterpulsation).

  • Administration of pharmacological agents including K-Mg-aspartate, K-aspartate, Mg-aspartate, and Fe-dextran.

    • Main Results:

    • Mechanical heart assist normalized myocardial ionogram (K, Na, Ca, Mg) by reducing ventricular workload.
    • K-Mg-aspartate and K-aspartate prevented calcium increase and reduced necrosis in primary cardiopathies.
    • Fe-dextran decreased myocardial calcium levels and mitigated necrotic/myolytic changes.

    Conclusions:

    • Mechanical heart support offers hemodynamic and metabolic benefits in failing hearts.
    • Pharmacological agents like K-Mg-aspartate are effective in preventing calcium overload and cardiac damage.
    • Combining mechanical heart support with targeted pharmacological therapy is recommended for acute heart failure treatment.
