[Exercise tolerance after coronary stenting in patients with stable angina].

The target of our investigation was to evaluate the exercise tolerance in patients with stable angina 18 months after coronary stenting. The 165 patients with stable angina were included in research. The main group consisted of 100 patients who underwent PTCA with stenting.

The influence of coronary angioplasty of the infarct-dependent artery on systolic and diastolic function of the left ventricle.

The target of research is to compare the changes of systolic and diastolic functions of the left ventricle in patients with at least one month infarction after infarct-dependent artery recanalization through elective stenting. The group of 60 patients was selected, 47 men and 13 women, who underwent hospitalization in Central Hospital of Oilworkers in 2006-2007. The investigation was conducted on 30 patients (24 men and 6 women), who underwent elective stenting of LAD.
