['The effect of Mg++SO4 on myocardial hemodynamics was investigated in this study.', 'Twelve dogs were entered in this research. Six dogs received Mg++SO4 and the remaining dogs were considered as controls. The amount of Mg++SO4 that was administered to the animals was 0.15 mmol/kg/hr each. The left anterior descending artery was occluded for a period of 1 hour and the drug was administered during reperfusion.', 'Two hours after reperfusion, cardiac output was 1275+/-50 ml/min in the control group and 1475+/-25 ml/min in the Mg++SO4 group (p<0.05), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure was 18+/-3 mmHg in the control group and 12+/-2 mmHg in the Mg++SO4 group.'] Does mg++SO4 treatment improves the hemodynamics follow the acute myocardial ischemia and reperfusion?
