The fundamental objective of this study was to develop a technique for salvaging aco the ischemic muscle segment is the coronary venous system. We have been able to ration) in closed chest dogs by placing a double lumen balloon catheter in the coronary sinus, and perfusing it with blood derived from a peripheral artery. We have been able to partially reverse these same manifestations in similar dogs with an ischemic period of 30-60 minutes.
