title: [Nebivolol in the treatment of ischemic heart disease patients with chronic heart failure].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To assess effectiveness of inclusion of nebivolol in complex therapy of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) due to ischemic heart disease (IHD).
  
  
  METHODS
  Patients (n=62, age 47-73 years) with NYHA class II-III CHF and left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) less than 45% receiving standard therapy +/- nebivolol (5 mg/day). The patients were followed up for 4 months.
  
  
  RESULTS
  After 4 months improvement of clinical state, exercise tolerance, parameters of central hemodynamics and LV remodeling, lipid spectrum, rheological properties of blood and platelets haemostasis was more pronounced in a group of nebivolol treated patients.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Inclusion of nebivolol in complex therapy increases efficacy of treatment of patients with CHF due to IHD.
