We examined the effects of a new inotrope, OPC-8212 (OPC: 2 (1H)-quino-linone), on coronary sinus flow (CSF), myocardial oxygen consumption, myocardial lactate extraction ratio (LER), cardiac index (CI) and pulmonary arterial diastolic pressure (PADP) in eleven patients with prior myocardial infarction. Measurements were taken before (control) and 8 hours after administration of OPC (480 mg, p.o.). A cardiac function curve was obtained in each stage with rapid intravenous administration of 500 ml of saline (loaded state) after baseline measurements. There was a significant increase in the cardiac index and decrease in the pulmonary arterial diastolic pressure in the loaded state after OPC. Thus the ventricular function curve was shifted to the left and showed a steep incline, indicating an increased inotropic state. On the other hand, myocardial oxygen consumption and myocardial lactate extraction ratio were unchanged. Thus we concluded that OPC improved cardiac performance without increasing myocardial oxygen consumption.
