[Indicators of bicycle ergometry after heart transplantation].
Exercise tolerance in postcardiac transplantation patients versus healthy controls was studied at different intervals after the surgery using bicycle ergometry. Being low after the transplantation, exercise tolerance in the patients increased throughout the rehabilitation period but still did not reach the values characteristic for healthy subjects. Initial heart rate in the above patients was higher, while chronotropic and inotropic reserves of the transplanted heart appeared lower than in the controls. The data obtained help objectively assess the condition of the patients with transplanted heart.
