Abstract

Forty-six patients with ischemic heart disease with considerable dysfunction of the myocardium were subjected before operation of aortocoronary shunting to veloergometry with calculation of indices of the central hemodynamics by the method of tetrapolar rheoplethysmography, echocardioscopy before and after taking nitroglycerin. Close interrelation was noted between the increase of the stroke volume during veloergometry, increased fraction of output after taking nitroglycerin and improved contractile capacity of the myocardium after aortocoronary shunting.
