Background-Determinants of left atrial (LA) reservoir function and its influence on left ventricular (LV) function have not been quantified.Methods and Results-In an open-pericardium, paced (70 and 90 bpm) pig model of LV regional ischemia (left anterior descending coronary constriction), with high-fidelity LV, LA, and RV pressure recordings, we obtained the LA area with 2D automated border detection echocardiography, LA pressure-area loops, and Doppler transmitral flow. We calculated LV tau, LA relaxation (a-x pressure difference divided by time, normalized by a pressure), and stiffness (slope between x and v pressure points of v loop). Determinants of total LA reservoir (maximum-minimum area, cm(2)) were identified by multiple regression analysis. Different mean rates of LA area increase identified 2 consecutive (early rapid and late slow) reservoir phases. During ischemia, LV long-axis shortening (LAS, LV base systolic descent) and LA reservoir area change decreased (7.3+/-0.3 [SEM] versus 5.6+/-0.3 cm(2), P
