Why the study?
The study evaluated the effect of ivabradine on hemodynamics, myocardial contractility, and NT-proBNP production according to the number of affected coronary arteries in patients with stable ischemic heart disease after endovascular revascularization.
Does ivabradine improve myocardial structural and functional parameters and NT-proBNP levels in patients with stable coronary heart disease and heart failure after coronary stenting?
Population

Ivabradine effects post-revascularization by vessel count remain preliminary; leaves open need for randomized confirmation on hemodynamics and NT-proBNP.
Does ivabradine improve myocardial structural and functional parameters and NT-proBNP levels in patients with stable coronary heart disease and heart failure after coronary stenting?
In patients with stable coronary artery disease and heart failure with preserved or moderately reduced ejection fraction after stenting, adding ivabradine to standard therapy improves left ventricular reverse remodeling at 12 months.
