title: [Use of echocardiography in diagnosing heart failure in the acute stage of myocardial infarct].
abstract: The authors studied prognostic criteria and early diagnosis of cardiac insufficiency during the acute period of myocardial infarction. 44 patients with macrofocal myocardial infarction were examined during the acute phase. Phase analysis of time intervals of the cardiac cycle and a number of integral indices reflecting the contractile and pumping function of the myocardium came under scrutiny. It is established that the indices can be used for the diagnosis of circulatory insufficiency in the acute period of myocardial infarction and also for prognosis of the severity of the disease.
