Cruz Seven patients with ongoing angina with ST-segment elevation, refractory to oral nifedipine and intravenous nitroglycerin, were treated by adding intravenous beta-blockers. Chest pain...

...K. Taniguchi; T. Tsujibayashi; H. Itoh Fifteen congestive heart failure patients (NYHA: class III or IV) were enrolled in the study and were classified into two groups. Six patients (group I) received combined therapy by nitroglycerin tape (5 mg) and ibopamine (100 mg), while the remaining 9...

...E.I. Zharov; A.L. Vertkin; A.I. Martynov; S.N. Salnikov The efficacy of isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) and nitroglycerin was studied in 115 patients with acute transmural myocardial infarction admitted to the Coronary Care Unit not later than 12 h after the onset of chest pain: 58 patients not later...

...Dženana E. Rezaković, Jr.; Miodrag Popadić; Gjuro Popović; Leo Pavičić; Janez Štalec We studied the hemodynamic response to intravenous nitroglycerin (NTG) in 40 patients with and without acute heart failure (hemodynamic subsets I-IV) during acute myocardial infarction. Hemodynamic measurements...

All patients had clinical evidence of active ischemic heart disease. In 1 patient, third-degree heart block...

...Albert A. Kattus During constant uninterrupted exercise with mild angina present, either placebo, nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate or erythrityl trinitrate was given by buccal membrane absorption. Placebo produced no relief and exercise had to be stopped. Nitroglycerin produced rapid complete...

...Lenore R. Zohman; Linda R. Carroll The nitroglycerin (NTG) exercise test can help in detecting ischemia in the presence of right bundle branch block ( RBBB ), left bundle branch block ( LBBB ), or digitalis-induced exercise ST changes and in excluding ischemia when a falsely positive test...
