RESEARCH OF DIASTOLIC AND SYSTOLIC FUNCTION OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE AT PATIENTS WITH BRONCHIAL ASTHMA
Abstract
To estimate a functional condition of a myocardium of the left ventricle we examined 36 patients with the moderate course of bronchial asthma (BA), 39 patients with the heavy course of the disease and 30 somatic healthy patients. According to the results of echokardioskopic examination of the patients of both groups with BA we revealed the diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle which intensified in the process of the disease increasing. According to lengthening of time of isovolumetric contraction of the left ventricle and increasing in a Doppler echocardiographic index - the Tei index - we revealed the destruction of diastolic function of the left ventricle and moderate impairment of systolic function at patients with BA of a heavy persistent current of the disease.
