Abstract
The degree and decay of postextrasystolic potentiation were studied in isolated rat papillary muscle at Lmax, the length at which developed force was maximum, and at shorter lengths. Potentiation curves were constructed relating the degree of potentiation with the time interval between any given extrasystole and the last steady-state beat. At all stimulation rates tested (ranging from 3 to 60/min), potentiation curves were found to be dependent on muscle length: at any interval the degree of potentiation increasedFile in questo prodotto:
