Definition
English
:
Prolonged dysfunction of the
myocardium
after a brief episode of severe
ischemia
, with gradual return of contractile activity. It occurs frequently, both in the experimental laboratory and in
clinical medicine
. Since stunned
myocardium
occurs adjacent to necrotic tissue after prolonged
coronary occlusion
, many myocardial infarcts may be a mixture of necrotic and stunned tissue. (Braunwald,
Heart
Disease
, 1992, p1176)
