Clinical Trial Summary

This study will determine whether or not saphenous vein [arterial] bypass grafts in the leg relax in response to increases in blood flow.


Description:

Subjects who have undergone saphenous vein [arterial] bypass grafts from the femoral to above-knee popliteal artery will undergo ultrasound imaging at rest, and again after 5 minutes of blood pressure cuff occlusion of the calf. (at 1 minute and 15 minutes) Subjects will then be given sub-lingual nitroglycerin, and repeat ultrasound will be performed 3 minutes later. Following 10 minutes of rest, subjects will be given intravenous L-NMMA, a specific nitric oxide inhibitor, to help determine the responsible agent of the vein graft flow mediated dilation.

Study Design

Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Basic Science


Intervention

Drug:
L-N^G monomethyl arginine (L-NMMA)
L-NMMA was infused at a dose of 1 mg/kg over 10 minutes to competitively inhibit the production of nitric oxide. Ultrasound imaging of the saphenous vein [arterial] bypass at baseline, and following an ischemic stimulus, administration of sublingual nitroglycerin, and intravenous administration of L-NMMA.
