title: [Short courses of iodine-bromine bath therapy and physical exercises for patients with coronary heart disease and concomitant cardiac rhythm disturbance].
abstract: The objective of this sanatorium-based study was to evaluate effect of short courses of iodine-bromine bath therapy and veloergometer exercises during 14 days on the working capacity, ventricular and supraventicular extrasystoles, painful and "silent" myocardial ischemia in patients with a combination of coronary heart disease (CHD), stable angina of functional class II, and grade II hypertensive disease (according to the WHO classification). The patients' conditions were monitored by means of spiroveloergometry and Holter ECG recordings. The study included a total of 108 patients. It was shown that short courses of iodine-bromine bath therapy and veloergometer exercises had training and anti-arrhythmic effect on the patients with concurrent coronary heart disease, stable angina, and hypertensive disease. The treatment improved their working capacity, enhanced coronary heart reserve, reduced the frequency of ventricular and supraventicular extrasystoles, decreased manifestations of painful and "silent" myocardial ischemia.
