[Differential selection of anti-anginal drugs in stable stenocardia in relation to the data of central and intracardiac hemodynamics]

Abstract

Rheography and echocardiography were used to study central and intracardiac hemodynamic parameters in 196 patients with Functional Classes I-II from the screening of the main antianginal drugs during an acute pharmacological test under bicycle ergometric monitoring. It was established that the hemodynamic type of circulation and left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes may be used as criteria for the differential choice of antianginal agents. The values of these parameters are given for sustac, propranolol, verapamil, nifedipine and sustac plus propranolol.
