Hypokalemia-induced VF in adult isolated Langendorff rabbit (A) and rat (B) hearts exposed to 2.7 mmol/L [K]_o. Left, Sinus rhythm during normokalemia, as recorded with a pseudo-ECG, bipolar electrograms from the left atrium (LA) and right ventricle (RV), and an epicardial intracellular microelectrode (ME). Middle and Right, Onset of EAD-mediated triggered activity (*) from sinus rhythm during hypokalemia. Arrows in B indicate DADs. DADs indicates delayed afterdepolarizations; EAD, early afterdepolarization; and VF, ventricular fibrillation.

Optical action potential recordings and activation maps during EAD-mediated triggered activity in an isolated-perfused rat heart exposed to hypokalemia (2.7 mmol/L [K]). A, Optical voltage fluorescence (F_V) traces from 4 adjacent sites labeled 1 to 4 in B, illustrating 2 runs of EAD-mediated triggered activity (b1–b13) arising spontaneously from sinus rhythm (beats S1 and S6). B, Optical voltage fluorescence snapshots corresponding to the labeled beats in A. C, Isochronal activation maps of a sinus beat (S6) and the subsequent triggered beat (b7) indicating the different sites of origin. EAD indicates early afterdepolarization.

K dependence of hypokalemia-induced VT/VF in isolated rabbit hearts, in the absence and presence of dofetilide. A, When extracellular K concentration was lowered from the control value of 5.4 mmol/L to 4.0, 3.5, 2.7, 2.0, or 1.0 mmol/L, the incidence of VT/VF within 90 minutes progressively increased to 100% at 2.0 and 1.0 mmol/L. Data show median and 83% CI for the number of hearts indicated in parentheses, in the absence (black circles) or presence (red circles) of 1 μmol/L dofetilide. The percentage of hearts developing VT/VF at 2.7 mmol/L [K] was significantly increased by dofetilide (P=0.03). Curves are fits to a Hill equation in the absence (black curve) and presence of dofetilide (red curve). B, Kaplan–Meier survival curves comparing time to onset of VT/VF, with 83% CI indicated by shading (solid lines, without dofetilide; dashed line, with dofetilide). Rate of VT/VF onset was significantly faster at 1.0 and 2.0 mmol/L [K] than at higher [K] (P=0.0002–0.002), and significantly faster at 2.7 mmol/L [K] in the presence of dofetilide than in its absence (P=0.02). CI indicates confidence interval; VF, ventricular fibrillation; and VT, ventricular tachycardia.

Suppression of hypokalemia-induced VF by CaMKII inhibition or late I_Na blockade. Representative ECG and RV electrograms from isolated rabbit ventricles at the times indicated after reducing [K]_o from 5.4 to 2.0 mmol/L. A, No drug, illustrating the spontaneous transition from sinus rhythm to VT/VF after 10 minutes. B, KN-93 (1 μmol/L), illustrating maintenance of sinus rhythm after 30 minutes. C, Same heart as in B, 3 minutes after replacing KN-93 with KN-92 (1 μmol/L), illustrating spontaneous onset of VT/VF. D, GS-967 (1 μmol/L), illustrating maintenance of sinus rhythm after 30 minutes. E, Same heart as in D, 38 minutes after washing out GS-967, illustrating onset of spontaneous VT/VF. CaMKII indicates Ca-calmodulin kinase II; RV, right ventricle; VF, ventricular fibrillation; and VT, ventricular tachycardia.

Basal (autophosphorylated) tissue CaMKII activity level, expressed as percentage of maximal Ca/CaM-stimulated CaMKII activity, in isolated rabbit ventricular tissue arterially perfused with 5.4 mmol/L or 2.7 mmol [K]_o for 30 minutes. Individual data points, median, 95% confidence intervals, and P value are indicated. For 2.7 mmol/L data, open circles indicate hearts in which no VT/VF occurred during hypokalemia (2 hearts), and open squares indicate hearts in which transient (1- to 2-minute episodes in 2 hearts) or sustained VT/VF developed (1 heart) during hypokalemia. CaMKII indicates Ca-calmodulin kinase II; VF, ventricular fibrillation; and VT, ventricular tachycardia.
