title: [Effect of vasodilator agents on the effectiveness of the complex treatment of patients with ischemic heart disease and congestive heart failure].
abstract: A total of 153 coronary patients with congestive heart failure, stage IIA and IIB, were investigated. Thirty patients underwent a three-week course of treatment with cardiac glycosides, plus diuretics and potassium preparations where necessary. In addition to conventional treatment, 123 patients were treated with vasodilating agents (2% nitroglycerin ointment, nitrosorbide or molsidomin) with the doses adjusted individually on the basis of acute drug testing. Those patients with congestive heart failure who received combined treatment with cardiac glycosides and vasodilators demonstrated a more obvious improvement of clinical parameters and instrumental findings as compared to the patients, treated with cardiac glycosides alone.
