[Effects of restoration of coronary circulation on the function of the left ventricle in patients with acute myocardial infarction (a follow-up after 1 year)].

Abstract	Values of overall and local left ventricular function were studied in 89 patients in the acute period and 1 year following myocardial infarction. Three patient groups were identified: (1) 26 patients with coronary artery patency recorded by the first coronary angiography; (2) 20 with coronary blood flow recovery made by thrombolytic therapy; and (3) 40 with coronary occlusion. There was a significant improvement of left ventricular function in the patients from Group 1 during their hospital treatment and 1 year after.
