There will be reduced blood flow to the myocardium and the duration and severity will determinate the fate of the compromised myocardium.
Some of the features are systolic and diastolic disfunction, elevation of filling pressures, electrocardiographic changes and pain.
In case of prolonged cessation of blood flow the myocardial infarction is the final outcome.
