Heart rate reserve during dipyridamole stress test applied to potential heart donors in brain death.

CONCLUSIONS: HRR is almost abolished and unrelated to LVCR in brain-dead patients during DSE. The modulation of neural input to the heart is essential to determine HRR, and plays no significant role in determining the inotropic response during DSE.
