Untersuchungen zur Therapie der pulmonalen Hypertonie kardialer, pulmonaler und vasculärer Genese mit wiederholten Druckmessungen in der Arteria pulmonalis

Effect of Isosorbide Dinitrate on Hemodynamics and Respiration of Patients with Coronary Artery Disease and of Patients with Chronic Cor pulmonale

“…In recent studies, in addition, acute improvement of the central hemo dynamics in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension have been re ported [3,4], The purpose of the following study was, to evaluate the in fluence of ISDN on hemodynamics and respiration and its mode of action in two different groups of patients, showing pulmonary hypertension during physical exercise: 10 patients with CAD (type postcapillary pulmonary hypertension) and 10 patients with irreversible restrictive lung disease (type precapillary pulmonary hypertension).…”
