[Effect of sinusoidal modulated currents on physical ability to work and disruption of cardiac rhythm in coronary heart disease with stable angina pectoris].
137 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and stable angina pectoris (functional classes I and II) participated in the study. 67 patients received a course of sinusoidal modulated currents (SMC) on the heart area; 40 patients--SMC on the sinocarotid zones; 30 patients received placebo procedures. The treatment outcomes were assessed with spiroveloergometry, ambulatory Holter ECG monitoring. The results demonstrate that course SMC provide a training effect (improved physical performance, coronary heart reserve) and antiarrhythmic action (mean daily number of ventricular extrasystoles decreased by 36.6-50.4%, supraventricular extrasystoles by 42.7-43.2%).
