A randomised controlled trial of the effect of high concentration oxygen on myocardial ischaemia during exercise
2012, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :However, there is also substantive evidence to suggest that high concentration oxygen therapy may be harmful when administered to patients with myocardial ischaemia who are not hypoxaemic [7]. Specifically, high concentration oxygen treatment increases coronary vascular resistance and reduces coronary blood flow [3,8–11], increases systemic vascular resistance and blood pressure, and reduces cardiac output [12–19]. The magnitude of these physiological responses may be substantial, as illustrated by a recent systematic review and meta-analysis which reported that high concentration oxygen reduces coronary blood flow by 8 to 29% and increases coronary vascular resistance by 22% to 41% [11].
