title: [Hemodynamics and myocardial contractile function in patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis complicated by pulmonary hypertension].
abstract: Eighty patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis complicated by stable pulmonary hypertension were examined for the general, central, intracardial hemodynamics and myocardial contractile function. In addition to the general clinical examination, use was made of tetrapolar rheography, rheography of the pulmonary artery, radiocardiography, radionuclide ventriculography. The majority of the examined manifested hemodynamic disorders both in the pulmonary and greater circulation together with abnormalities of myocardial contractile function of the right and left ventricles. The methods employed were shown to be of high information content.
