[Effects of laser irradiation of blood on electrical ventricular instability in patients with progressive angina pectoris].
The impact of laser blood irradiation (LBI) on electrical instability has been studied in 71 patients with progressive angina pectoris. The amount of couplets of ventricular premature beats after LBI was decreased, as evidenced by 24-hour monitoring. Invasive programmed ventricular stimulation provided better electrophysiological properties of the myocardium after LBI: primary examination showed that electrical ventricular instability was detected in 40%, but after the therapy it was only in 20% patients. Thus, LBI is an effective tool to decrease electrical ventricular instability, a major risk factor for sudden coronary death in patients with progressive angina pectoris.
