1 Effect of Hypotherma on Expermentally Produced Arrhythmas By EZRA J. BEYDA, M.D., SOL ALVAREZ, M.D., OTTO F. MULLER, M.D., RAPID ECTOPIC rhythms whch reman refractory to the usual type of therapy wth antarrhythmc drugs are often encountered clncally. The effect of hypotherma as a possble method of treatment under these condtons s of consderable theoretcal and practcal sgnfcance, snce such a regmen mght help to tde the patent over a crtcal perod. In the presence of rapd ectopc rhythms, t s possble that hypotherma, by decreasng cardac exctablty and metabolc tssue demands, may be a lfe-savng procedure. The benefcal effects of hypotherma n certan clncal states n whch the reducton of metabolc demands and avodance of severe hypoxa are necessary, such as n overwhelmng sepss 1 or hemorrhagc shock, 2 "* have been reported. It s well known that durng total body coolng, as well as drect coolng of the heart, the cardac rate falls, 5 " 8 and wthn crtcal ranges a drect relatonshp between heart rate and temperature s found. 5 ' 7 ~ 9 Coolng of the snoatral node depresses ts actvty; 10 the refractory perod of the cardac muscle s prolonged; conducton s slowed; and exctablty of tssues s decreased by hypotherma. 5 - u - 12 The purpose of ths study was to determne the effect of hypotherma on acontne-produced rapd ectope rhythms n the dog. Methods Twenty-fve adult mongrel dogs, weghng 13 to 20 Kg., were used n ths study; two groups of experments were performed. From the Dvson of Cardology, Phladelpha General Hosptal, Phladelpha, Pennsylvana. Supported by a grant from the Heart Assocaton of Southeastern Pennsylvana, and Grant H 141 (C-9) from the U. S. Publc Health Servce. Receved for publcaton August 11, AND SAMUEL BELLET, M.D. Experments n the Anmal wth Open Chest (Sxteen Dogs) The anmals were anesthetzed by ntravenous admnstraton of pentobarbtal (30 mg./kg.) and artfcal respraton nsttuted through an endotraeheal tube connected to a postve-pressure apparatus set at 16 e.p.m. (cycles per mnute). A femoral artery was exposed and cannulated; the cannula was then connected to a Statham stran gauge and the blood pressure recorded on a Sanborn twnvso. Eleetrocardographc (lead II) and blood pressure recordngs were obtaned at varous ntervals durng the experment. The arrhythma was nduced by the applcaton of acontne, a method descrbed by Scherf 13 ' 14 and others. 15 The chest was opened through a rght thoraeotomy ncson at the fourth ntercostal space, and the surface of the rght atrum and atral appendage was exposed. A cotton pledget saturated wth a soluton of acontne (0.05 per cent n benzene) was appled to the surface of the atral appendage untl a rapd arrhythma was produced. Ths occurred wthn a perod of two to fve mnutes, and was known from prevous studes to contnue for several hours. As soon as the arrhythma was nduced, the dog was covered wth plastc bags flled wth ce. Body temperature readngs were made at frequent ntervals by means of a deeply nserted rectal thermometer. A temperature drop from a control of 99 to 104 F. to hypothermc levels of 78 to 92 F. was obtaned wthn a perod of 45 to 80 mnutes. In eght experments, after the above level of hypotherma and the desred effect on the ectopc rhythm were obtaned, rewarmng was effected. Ths was accomplshed by coverng the anmals wth hot-water bags. The temperature was brought up to ranges of 95 to 101 F. wthn a perod of 60 to 90 mnutes. The remanng anmals whch were not rewarmed were sacrfced at the end of the experment. Experments n the Anmal wth Closed Chest (Nne Dogs) The experment was performed n two phases. The dog was ntally prepared n the followng manner. Under pentobarbtal anesthesa and artfcal respraton, a rght thoraeotomy was made 120 Crculaton Research. Volume IX, January 1961
2 HYPOTHERMIA AND ARRHYTHMIAS 121 under aseptc condtons, and the rght atral appendage exposed. The termnal end of a polyethylene tuhe (#16-1S, 25 em. long) was sutured to the wall of the appendage and covered by a small pouch of the wall made wth a purse-strng suture. The chest was then closed, wth the dstal end of the polyethylene tube protrudng through the ncson and the anmal permtted to recover. Three to fve days followng the operaton the dog was agan anesthetzed and the experment carred out as n the frst group, except that the arrhythma was produced by njecton of the aeontne soluton through the polyethylene tube. A soluton of 0.1 per cent was used n these experments and njected nto the rght atral pouch onto the surface of the rght atrum, usng 0.5 ml. ncrements at 5- to 10-mnute ntervals untl the arrhythma was produced. The effectve dose of acontne vared from 1 to 5 mg. and the tme elapsed between the njecton and the appearance of the ectopc rhythm was 3 to 20 mnutes. Results Open-Chest Experments The results obtaned n ths group are summarzed n table 1. Effects of Hypotherma on the Heart Bate and Bhythm (Fgures 1, S, and S) Control electrocardograms after the chest was opened showed a snus rhythm n all anmals. The cardac rate ranged from 100 to 185 per mnute. Followng the applcaton of acontne to the rght atrum, a rapd arrhythma was produced n all nstances. Atral fbrllaton occurred n 11 cases, whle a more regular supraventrcular tachycarda appeared n the fve remanng cases. The ventrcular rate of the nduced arrhythma ranged from 170 to 300 per mnute. In all experments, hypotherma resulted n a marked slowng of the ventrcular rate. The rate decreased to a level of 60 to 165 per mnute. Wth an average drop of temperature of 13 P., the reducton n rate averaged 54 per cent. In nne nstances, normal snus rhythm was restored under hypotherma; n one other nstance, the rhythm changed from an atral flutter wth ventrcular rate of 250 to an A-V nodal rhythm of 110 per mnute (dog 14). Although the heart rate was slowed, the arrhythma was unaffected n the remanng sx anmals. Crculaton Research, Volume IX.

Effects of Hypotherma on the Blood Pressure (Fgures S, S, and 4) Pror to the nducton of tachycarda, the control blood pressure averaged 110/75 mm. Hg. Wth the occurrence of a rapd ectopc rhythm followng applcaton of acontne to the atrum, a fall n blood pressure was observed n 14 experments. Ths drop averaged 13 per cent for the systolc and 15 per cent for the dastolc pressures. In the remanng two cases, no sgnfcant change occurred. Durng hypotherma, the blood pressure n nne cases further decreased by 21 and 22 per cent, respectvely, for the systolc and dastolc components. In two other experments (nos. 4 and 10), the blood pressure rose under hypotherma, returnng toward the control fgures. In the remanng three cases, no sgnfcant change n pressure was noted.

Increase of the temperature by an average of 11 F. (85 to 96 F.) produced an ncrease n rate to a level of 130 to 370 per mnute (average 199), an average rse of 84 per cent. In four nstances, the cardac rhythm, whch had been converted to a snus orgn under hypotherma, mantaned snus actvty wth rewarmng. In two others, the nduced arrhythma recurred at the hgher temperature; n the two remanng experments, the ectopc rhythm whch had perssted wth hypotherma contnued upon rewarmng. Effects of Rewarmng on the Blood Pressure In four anmals, the blood pressure, whch averaged 85/55 mm. Hg under hypotherma, rose by about 20 per cent upon rewarmng; n three others, a decrease n blood pressure of about 25 per cent was noted; n the remanng dog, no sgnfcant change occurred wth rewarmng. The blood pressure effects whch occurred after the ncrease n rate ncdent to the rewarmng dd not follow a constant pattern. The pressure was ether unchanged or only slghtly ncreased. Closed-Chest Experments Of the nne dogs n ths group, as a result of the aeontne njecton, three developed an ntal supraventrcular ectopc rhythm followed almost mmedately by ventrcular tachycarda and fbrllaton. The latter was most probably due to the spread of the acontne soluton over to the ventrcular Crculaton Research, Volume IX, January lge wall. The results obtaned n the remanng sx dogs are summarzed n table 2. Effect of Hypotherma on the Heart Bate, Cardac, and Blood Pressure The control rhythm was snus n all anmals, and the cardac rate ranged from 120 to 160 per mnute. Followng njecton of acontne, supraventrcular tachycarda was produced n four cases and atral fbrllaton n two others. The ventrcular rate ranged from 160 to 320 per mnute. Durng hypotherma the rate decreased to a level of 80 to 120 per mnute. An average reducton of temperature of 19 F. produced a decrease of the ventrcular rate averagng 59 per cent. In two nstances, normal snus rhythm was restored under hypotherma; n two others, supraventrcular ectopc rhythm perssted but was slow and regular (rates of 120 and 80 per mnute, respectvely); and n one experment, atral fbrllaton contnued, although wth a much slower ventrcular response (120 per mnute). In the remanng dog, after ntal converson of the arrhythma to a slow nodal rhythm was obtaned, sudden ventrcular fbrllaton and death of the anmal occurred. Systemc blood pressure was recorded n three of these experments. The control pressure averaged 155/95 mm. Hg, and wth the nducton of the rapd ectopc rhythm dropped by an average of 50 per cent. Under hypotherma a slght rse was observed n one ease and a slght addtonal drop n one other.

Beaulnes and Day 23 studed the effect of temperature on electrcally produced arrhythmas n the solated rabbt atra. They found that "on lowerng the temperature the arrhythma dmnshed n -ate and often ceased altogether." Hgher temperatures were found to favor the producton of these arrhythmas. More recently, Sommervlle 24 reported brefly on the effect of hypotherma on establshed atral fbrllaton n 15 patents undergong surgery for the repar of atral septal defect. Durng early coolng, marked slowng of the ventrcular rate was observed and n half the patents "the rhythm became precsely regular when the temperature had fallen 1 to 2 C." No statement s avalable relatve to the effect of rewarmng on these arrhythmas.

Durng hypotherma the systemc blood pressure s reported to show a gradual fall. 8 Such a fall occurred n about half of our experments. In the remander, the blood pressure ether dd not change or rose wth the drop n temperature. Slowng of the cardac rate and, therefore, better dastolc fllng of the heart mght explan the fndng. The effect of coolng on ectopc rhythms durng hypotherma s very lkely medated by changes n the followng m3 r oeardal propertes decreased exctablty, ncreased refractory perod, ncreased conducton tme, and ncreased duraton of acton potental. 5 " 7 ' 9 " 12 ' 20, T] ese actons, n many respects, are smlar to the mechansms by whch antarrhythmc drugs (qundne and procane) act n controllng rapd ectopc rhythms. The decrease n cardac work durng hypotherma s an addtonal benefcal factor. The aforementoned experments suggest that the use of hypotherma represents an added therapeutc measure n the treatment of rapd ectopc rhythms whch may be worthwhle explorng n patents who are refractory to the usual methods of therapy. Summary The effect of hypotherma on expermentally produced rapd arrhythmas n the dog was studed. Rapd eetopc rhythms were produced n open-chest and "ntact" anmals by applcaton of acontne soluton to the rght atral wall. In all experments, a benefcal cardac effect was obtaned marked slowng of the ventrcular rate occurred n all cases, and n approxmately half of the cases snus rhythm was restored. On rewarmng, although the heart rate ncreased, the snus rhythm acqured durng hypotherma perssted n most nstances. The blood pressure fell when a rapd arrhythma was produced. A further drop was observed n approxmately half the eases durng hypotherma. In the remanng cases no change, or a slght rse n blood pressure, occurred durng coolng. The results obtaned n the expermental anmal would Crculaton Research. Volume IX, January 1981 appear to have a bearng on the therapy of certan refractory arrhythmas n the human subject. References 1.
