چکیده

Cineangiography of the left ventricle during exercise has been used in an attempt to define the area of ischaemic myocardium in patients suffering from angina pectoris in whom coronary artery surgery was contemplated. A correlation was established between the site of coronary artery obstruction and the area of abnormal myocardial contraction. This method of localization of regional left ventricular ischaemia may furnish useful diagnostic information when coronary reconstructive surgery is contemplated in patients with exercise-induced angina pectoris.

Effect of Nitroglycerin on Exercise-induced Abnormalities of Left Ventricular Regional Function and Ejection Fraction in Coronary Artery Disease Assessment by Radionuclide Cineangiography in Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Patients

The effects of nitroglycerin (TNG) on exerciseinduced abnormalities of left ventricular wall motion and ejection fraction are unknown in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). In the present investigation radionuclide cineangiographic studies were performed in 47 patients with CAD (14 without angina during exercise) and in 25 normal subjects. All CAD patients,...

Response of left ventricular volume to exercise in man assessed by radionuclide equilibrium angiography.

To assess the effects of exercise on left ventricular volumes we studied 10 normal men, 15 patients with coronary disease who developed angina pectoris during exercise, and 10 patients with known coronary disease who did not develop angina during exercise. Each subject performed supine bicycle exercise under a mobile, single-crystal scintillation camera until angina or fatigue occurred. Technet...

Factors influencing R wave amplitude in patients with ischaemic heart disease.

R wave amplitude changes during exercise have been ascribed to alteration in left ventricular volume and their measurement advocated for the improved diagnosis of coronary disease. The reproducibility of exercise QRS changes and their relation to ST segment depression, respiratory pattern, and left ventricular volume during ischaemia were studied in 10 patients with angina and coronary disease....

EVect of repetitive episodes of exercise induced myocardial ischaemia on left ventricular function in patients with chronic stable angina: evidence for cumulative stunning or ischaemic preconditioning?

Background—Myocardial stunning is known to occur following a single episode of eVort angina in patients with coronary artery disease. The eVect on left ventricular (LV) function of repeated episodes of ischaemia is unknown. Objectives—To investigate the eVects of repeated episodes of exercise induced ischaemia on LV function in patients with chronic stable angina. Methods—Patients with signific...

Left ventricular hemodynamics in exercise-induced angina pectoris.

SUMMARY The sequence of events characterizing the onset and course of exercise-induced angina pectoris was studied in 10 patients with ischemic heart disease during cardiac catheterization. Exercise produced a precipitous rise in left ventricular end-diastolic pressure prior to the onset of angina and electrocardiographic ischemia. A corresponding abnormal increase in pulmonary artery pressure ...
