[Heat production as a criterion of adrenergic regulation of metabolic processes of the myocardium].

Bolus injection of adrenaline in coronary perfusion blood flow caused different-directed changes in coronary venous blood temperature. Directivity and myocardium heat production changes are determined by peculiarities of interactions between adrenergic and cholinergic mechanisms of cardiodynamics and myocardial metabolism regulation. Cholinergic blockade by atropine++ increases heat production and limits negative ino- and chronotropic components of cardiac adrenergic reactions. That increase is completely eliminated by subsequent obsidan blockade of beta-adrenoreceptors.
