[Use of physical training in the rehabilitation of patients with post-infarct heart failure].
The effect of exercise was examined in 15 postmyocardial-infarction patients showing clinical signs of heart failure; 17 patients were taken as controls. The drills continued for 11 months and included exercise therapy, bicycle ergometry and rationed walks. In addition to a considerable increase in physical working capacity, the patients doing exercise showed more favorable hemodynamic response to stress that featured a greater stroke index, a smaller heart rate increment and a more significant fall in specific peripheral resistance. In the control patients, hemodynamic response to stress grew worse, while physical working capacity remained basically unchanged.
