[Effects of carbon dioxide baths and exercise on physical performance of patients with left ventricular dysfunction after myocardial infarction].
Carbon dioxide baths (CDB) and exercise have a good effect on clinical indices of the postinfarction period in patients suffering from postinfarction cardiosclerosis with impaired left ventricular function, especially in combined use. Patients on general CDB and/or exercise exhibited a significant increase in time of exercise and power of the threshold load, less frequent occurrence of ischemic depression of ST segment and dyspnea in performing bicycle exercise. CDB and exercise are especially beneficial for patients with systolic dysfunction.
