One of the most common reperfusion injuries is the heart. When blood flow to the coronary circulation is compromised, myocardial ischemia and eventually cell death occur. When reperfused, it accelerates the necrotic process of myocytes, which undergo irreversible, cell swelling. In addition, the electrophysiological changes of the heart, thus manifesting arrhythmias</em>
