Thirty rabbits were randomly divided into control, ischemia and PAM groups. Arterially-perfused rabbit left ventricular preparations were made, and transmural ECG as well as action potentials from both endocardium and epicardium were simultaneously recorded in the whole process of all experiments. In control group rabbit ventricular wedge preparations were continuously perfused with Tyrode＇s solution, and in ischemia group and PAM groups the perfusion of Tyrode＇s solution was stopped for 30 min. Then the ischemia group was reperfused with Tyrode＇s solution and the PAM group with Tyrode＇s solution containing 2.42 mg/L PAM, respectively. ECG, QT interval, transmural repolarization dispersion （TDR） and action potentials from epicardium and endocardium were simultaneously recorded, and the RIVA of the wedge preparation was observed. Compared with control group, TDR and incidence of RIVA were significantly increased in ischemia group （P〈0.05）. The incidence of RIVA in control, ischemia and PAM group was 0/10, 9/10 and 1/10, respectively. Compared with ischemia group, TDR and incidence of RIVA were significantly reduced in PAM group （P〈0.05）. Potassium aspartate and magnesium significantly reduce TDR and prevent ventricular arrhythmia in ischemic rabbit heart.展开更多
