[Contemporary approaches to the treatment of arterial hypertension and ischemic heart disease].
Prognostic advantage of a combination of calcium antagonist and angiotensin converting inhibitor (ACEI) over combination of beta-adrenoblocker with thiazide diuretic was proved in a large randomized study of long term treatment of arterial hypertension. In another randomized study administration of ACEI for 12 months caused substantial retardation of cardiac remodeling in elderly patients with normal left ventricular function in postinfarction period. These results are important for a practical physicians as they concern treatment of wide circle of in- out-patients.
