Prospective prediction of O2 consumption from pressure-volume area in dog hearts

H. Suga, Y. Yasumura, T. Nozawa, S. Futaki, Y. Igarashi and Y. Goto

Systolic pressure-volume area (PVA) is the area circumscribed by the end-systolic pressure-volume (PV) line, the end-diastolic PV curve, and the systolic PV trajectory of the ventricle. PVA represents the total mechanical energy generated by ventricular contraction. Myocardial O2 consumption (VO2) linearly correlates with PVA under different pre- and afterloads in the dog left ventricle. The linear VO2-PVA relation parallel shifts with changes in contractility index Emax. We have retrospectively obtained VO2 = A X PVA + B . Emax + C, where A, B, and C are regression coefficients. We used this equation to prospectively predict VO2 from measured PVA and Emax in a new group of dog left ventricles. Coefficient of determination (CD) of measured VO2 from predicted VO2 was 0.86 +/- 0.09 (SD) in individual hearts, but decreased to 0.72 when data of the five hearts were pooled. These prospective CDs in individual hearts and all hearts were smaller than retrospective CDs in the individual hearts (0.90 +/- 0.06). Inter-individual variations of A,B, and C caused the lower prospective predictability.
