title: [Hemodynamic changes and left ventricular function in patients with hypertension during an acute trial of urapidil].
abstract: The left ventricular hemodynamic changes were studied in 9 hypertensive patients (6 patients with hypertensive attack and 3 patients with a severe form of the disease) by simultaneous recordings of the M-type echocardiogram, apexcardiogram and phonocardiogram in an acute trial with Urapidil administered intravenously in a dose of 0,7 mg/kg body mass. The arterial pressure and the peripheral vascular resistance decrease. The stroke and the minute volume do not change. The heart rate increases. The telediastolic and telesystolic dimensions of the left ventricle decrease. The percentage amplitude of the aI-wave of the apexcardiogram also decreases. The fraction of the shortening of the left ventricular dimension increases with 23,0%, the ejection fraction increases with 13,5% and the average speed of the circumferential fibres shortening increases with 21,4%. Urapidil applied i.v. exerts a rapid hypotensive action and improves the left ventricular function.
