Increased myocardial oxygen consumption
The amount of oxygen the tissue consumes per unit time. Also called oxygen uptake. Under normal circumstances, it is mainly determined by the function of the human circulatory system. Myocardial oxygen consumption changes only when myocardium is in urgent need of oxygen. Oxygen consumption is large, and hypoxia is very easy to occur. This change may be reversible.
