Electrographic changes associated with cyclical reduction of blood flow in partially constricted one or two coronary arteries of anesthetized dogs were examined. In the preparations with single vessel constriction, cyclical ST elevation occurred along with cyclical reduction of coronary blood flow below 25% of the control value. The ST elevation was associated with reciprocal ST depression in the contralateral ventricular surface. In the preparations with double vessel constriction, cyclical reduction of flow frequently occurred in both vessels. The reduction of flow in one vessel occurred not synchronously with that in another vessel in the majority of preparations. The reduction of flow in both vessels was associated with ST elevation in the corresponding areas of the left ventricle. Premature ventricular contractions frequently occurred at the beginning of or immediately after disappearance of ST elevation, or when ST elevation persisted for more than 10 min. Ventricular fibrillation frequently occurred in the preparations with double vessel constriction.
