[Treatment of arrhythmias in patients with chronic cardiac insufficiency with preserved left ventricular systolic function].
It is known that disturbances in neurohumoral systems in chronic heart failure (CHF) do not only result in myocardial dysfunction, but also can lead to sudden arrhythmic death. The review is devoted to one of pathophysiological approaches to treatment of patients with CHF with a preserved left ventricular function providing maintenance of neurohumoral systems balance. The author considers literature data on possibilities provided by such pharmaceuticals as ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II antagonists, beta-adrenoblockers, and calcium channel blockers in treatment and prophylaxis of arrhythmic events.
