[Newly developed stenocardia: lack of ventricular electrical instability in the absence of acute myocardial ischemia].
A total of 130 patients with angina of new onset were examined within first 3 months of the disease. Macrofocal myocardial infarction survivors were not admitted to the study. The investigation included selective coronaro-angiography and ventriculography, Holter's ECG monitoring over 24 to 48 hours and bicycle ergometry. Programmed right-ventricular electric stimulation was conducted in 41 patients. Only one major coronary artery was affected in 78% of patients. Left-ventricular ejection fraction nearly always exceeded 50%. Groups of ventricular extrasystoles were detected by ECG monitoring in 10.8% and by bicycle ergometry in 2.5%. No signs of electrical instability were ever detected at programmed stimulation, done in the absence of anginal attacks. Groups of ventricular extrasystoles were more common, as compared to single extrasystoles (p less than 0.001), in acute myocardial ischemia, being more frequently associated with unstable rather than stable angina of new onset (p less than 0.05). In early coronary heart disease, signs of electric ventricular instability are not detectable in the absence of myocardial ischemia.
