[Laser therapy and death caused by arrhythmia in ischemic heart disease].
The paper presents a new treatment of myocardial infarction which proved its high antiarrhythmic effectiveness in 300 MI patients followed up for 2 years. The method implies endogenous radiation of blood by He-Ne laser. Holter monitoring revealed that such radiation in the acute MI period promoted the arrest of high-grade ventricular arrhythmia more efficiency than lidocaine++ and prevented primary ventricular fibrillation. The 2-year follow-up provides evidence for a significant reduction in the occurrence of high-grade and lethal outcomes which decreased by half. In view of high occurrence of high-grade extrasystole in most decreased control subjects, this may be attributed to less frequent arrhythmic deaths. Lethal outcomes in laser therapy were reported in persistent cardiac failure, repeat myocardial damage and in presenile and senile patients.
