“…This could be explained by increased coronary micro-vascular filling and thus stretch of the sarcomeres and/or release of positive inotropic factors, leading to increased contractility. [38][39][40] Also the nitroprusside experiments support the theory that coronary vasodilation could improve RV function. We found that nitroprusside, which can be considered a "pure" vasodilator, improved RV contractility in the control hearts and the hypertrophic hearts where the coronary flow was increased.…”

“…However, there is rapid improvement in systolic performance during reperfusion at 1 minute because of increased coronary flow. During reactive hyperemia, LV function can be augmented to suprabaseline levels, a phenomenon known as the Gregg effect 28. Increased volume of the microvasculature following reperfusion causes stretch‐activated calcium channels to open.…”

“…22 Thus, in the clinical setting, if function is not seen to improve with dipyridamole, the presence of coronary stenosis could be inferred. The wide variability in the reported sensitivity of dipyridamole stress may in part be related to the criterion for abnormality-inducible regional systolic dysfunction versus lack of improvement in regional function-as well as the subjective nature of such calls.…”
