Key result
Exercise-induced and nitroglycerin-induced myocardial preconditioning delayed time to ischemia and improved hemodynamics during subsequent efforts in patients with stable angina.
Why the study?
Does exercise- and nitroglycerin-induced myocardial preconditioning improve hemodynamics during subsequent efforts in patients with stable angina?
Does exercise- and nitroglycerin-induced myocardial preconditioning improve hemodynamics during subsequent efforts in patients with stable angina?
Exercise and transdermal nitroglycerin can induce myocardial preconditioning that improves hemodynamics and exercise capacity in patients with stable angina.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May improve exercise tolerance in stable angina via preconditioning; leaves open whether this warrants targeted clinical use or larger trials.
Crisafulli et al. (2004) studied Chronic stable angina (n=20). Exercise and transdermal nitroglycerin vs. Baseline exercise test was evaluated on Hemodynamics and time to ischemia during maximal exercise. Exercise-induced and nitroglycerin-induced myocardial preconditioning delayed time to ischemia and improved hemodynamics during subsequent efforts in patients with stable angina.
