Abstract | UNLABELLED: RESULTS:
sildenafil citrate 50 mgr after a single oral dose: 1) improved the ecg findings in some patients, worsening the basal ecg in none of the studied patients; 2) significantly reduced systolic and diastolic arterial blood pressure being such reduction very strong in those with basal high level 3) significantly improved left ventricular systolic function in those patients with basal reduced function and 4) Right ventricular diastolic function evaluation: Sildenafil citrate 50 mgr significantly modified to normal pattern the E/A basal altered ratio in those patients with the inverted pattern as well as in those with restrictive pattern of tricupid diastolic influx to the right ventricle during the echo-duplex interrogation (p < 0.0001) 5) Left ventricular diastolic function evaluation: Sildenafil citrate 50 mgr significantly modified to normal pattern the E/A basal altered ratio in those patients with the inverted pattern as well as in those with restrictive pattern of mitral diastolic influx to the left ventricle, during the echo-duplex interrogation (p 0 <.0001).
