  • Abstract
    Changes in coronary perfusion pressure affect coronary arterial resistance (autoregulation) as well as myocardial oxygen consumption (Gregg´s phenomenon). The interaction between the effects of perfusion pressure and myocardial oxygen consumption on coronary flow control was investigated using a model. This model analysis predicts that autoregulation and Gregg´s phenomenon compete with each other in controlling coronary flow. The negative feedback system of the metabolic control system can become a positive feedback system when the level of arterial tone decreases and Gregg´s phenomenon becomes more important
