Abstract:

(1) Background: Arrhythmia, which is an umbrella term for various types of abnormal rhythms of heartbeat, has a high prevalence in both the general population and patients with coronary artery disease. So far, it remains unclear how different types of arrhythmia would affect myocardial perfusion and the risk/severity of myocardial ischemia. (2) Methods: A computational model of the coronary circulation coupled to the global cardiovascular system was employed to quantify the impacts of arrhythmia and its combination with coronary artery disease on myocardial perfusion. Furthermore, a myocardial supply-demand balance index (MSDBx) was proposed to quantitatively evaluate the severity of myocardial ischemia under various arrhythmic conditions. (3) Results: Tachycardia and severe irregularity of heart rates (HRs) depressed myocardial perfusion and increased the risk of subendocardial ischemia (evaluated by MSDBx), whereas lowering HR improved myocardial perfusion. The presence of a moderate to severe coronary artery stenosis considerably augmented the sensitivity of MSDBx to arrhythmia. Further data analyses revealed that arrhythmia induced myocardial ischemia mainly via reducing the amount of coronary artery blood flow in each individual cardiac cycle rather than increasing the metabolic demand of the myocardium (measured by the left ventricular pressure-volume area). (4) Conclusions: Both tachycardia and irregular heartbeat tend to increase the risk of myocardial ischemia, especially in the subendocardium, and the effects can be further enhanced by concomitant existence of coronary artery disease. In contrast, properly lowering HR using drugs like beta-blockers may improve myocardial perfusion, thereby preventing or relieving myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary artery disease.
