Example sentences for: inotropy

How can you use “inotropy” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Thus, we predicted that high perfusate calcium positive inotropy would result in lower developed pressures relative to both intracellular calcium and myocardial oxygen consumption compared to dobutamine, and that high perfusate calcium would be associated with evidence of protein kinase C activation, though not dobutamine.
To further explore the differences between dobutamine and high calcium positive inotropy, analysis of pressure and calcium transient waveforms and phase-plane plots relating pressure to calcium was performed.
In the present study, we hypothesized that energy consumption during altered inotropy is largely to related calcium handling.
In the perfused mouse heart, high perfusate calcium positive inotropy compared to dobutamine results in reduced myofilament calcium responsiveness, decreased energetic efficiency and is dependent in part on protein kinase C activation.
The mechanisms controlling calcium-induced inotropy are probably several fold, and include activation of protein kinase C [ 8 ] , of which several isoforms are calcium dependent.
