[Bicycle spiroergometric studies in the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease].
The indices of pulmonary ventilation and gas exchange, oxygen consumption per 1 kgm of work, the restoration coefficient, the effectiveness of work, etc. were studied at rest, during dosaged physical exertion on a bicycle ergoraph, and in the restoration period in 50 healthy individuals and in 175 patients with ischemic heart disease. Selective coronary angiography was conducted in all of the patients. Spiro-bicycle-ergometry is an informative method in the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease, enabling the physician to presume the presence of coronary sclerosis and judge the degree and extent of involvement of the coronary arteries before performing coronarography. With the gradual increase in the number of involved arteries, there were noted a gradual decrease of the restoration coefficient, diminution of the effectiveness of work, and an increase in oxygen consumption per 1 kgm of load. Changes in spiro-bicycle-ergometric indices in patients with ischemic heart disease and normal coronary arteries had the same trend as those in patients with coronary atherosclerosis.
