Magnitude of mitral valve closure plays a pivotal role in enhancing the forward blood flow during cardiac massage in dogs with ventricular fibrillation.


ABSTRACT: Motion of mitral valve during cardiac massage was examined using beagle dogs with ventricular fibrillation (n=4). Active compression-decompression cardiac massage (ACD-CM) exhibited greater peak aortic pressure than standard cardiac massage (S-CM), reverse of which was true for peak pulmonary capillary wedge pressure in each animal. Accordingly, peak aortic pressure was greater than peak pulmonary capillary wedge pressure with ACD-CM, whereas its reverse was true with S-CM. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed that mitral valve was incompletely closed with S-CM with showing regurgitation. The valve was more effectively closed during ACD-CM. These results indicate that effective closure of mitral valve during cardiac massage may increase forward blood flow, supporting "cardiac pump theory" rather than "thoracic pump theory" as a principle in dogs.
