| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The worldwide prevalence of heart failure that is the final pathway for various cardiovascular diseases is rising with the aging populations, a growing incidence of obesity, and significant healthcare improvements. Myocardial infarction is the most common underlying disease of heart failure, and it has been an important issue how the onset of heart failure is prevented after myocardial infarction. The aim of this study was to establish the short-term vagus nerve stimulation therapy after reperfusion therapy for acute myocardial infarction.
We established new experimental ischemia-reperfusion models which enable us to induce homogeneous ischemic region in rabbits and dogs. Percutaneous transluminal short-term (3days) vagus nerve stimulation after reperfusion therapy reduced myocardial infarction size.
