[The effect of radon baths on the physical work capacity and extrasystole in patients with ischemic heart disease and stable stenocardia].
Balneotherapy was given to 113 patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) with stable angina (functional class I and II). 40 patients and 43 patients took radon baths (40 nCi/l and 120 nCi/l, respectively), 30 patients took the course of fresh-water baths. Treatment results were assessed at spiroveloergometry and ambulatory Holter monitoring. Radon baths had a training effect in IHD with extra-systole. It manifests in higher physical performance and coronary heart reserve. Antiarrhythmic effect of the radon baths was different: a significant reduction in the average number of 24-h ventricular extrasystoles by 78.1, supraventricular extrasystoles by 92.3%, and by 79.9 and 94.7% for the 40 nCi/l baths and 120 nCi/l baths, respectively.
