Why the study?
Does oral propranolol affect rest and exercise left ventricular ejection fraction and volumes in patients with angina pectoris?
Does oral propranolol affect rest and exercise left ventricular ejection fraction and volumes in patients with angina pectoris?
Oral propranolol does not cause consistent deterioration in exercise left ventricular ejection fraction in patients with angina pectoris, even in those with resting LVEF less than 40%.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Supports lack of LVEF deterioration with propranolol in angina; leaves open randomized confirmation for low-EF use.
Dehmer et al. (1981) studied this question.
