[Study of the nonspecific effect of phosphocreatine disodium salt on the process of excitation conduction in acute myocardial ischemia].

The effect of phosphocreatine and phosphocreatinine disodium salts on excitation conduction in acute myocardial ischemia was investigated, using repeated short-term ischemia exposures of the isolated rabbit ventricular septum as a model. Considerable improvement of excitation conduction through ischemized myocardium, seen after the administration of phosphocreatine and phosphocreatinine salts, was shown to be associated with Na+ added to the perfusion medium. Phosphocreatine and phosphocreatinine effects on excitation conduction time and the septal force in control perfusion were related to both the addition of Na+ and the binding of Ca2+ by these agents in the perfusion medium.
