[The use of microcomputers for calculating the indices of the hemodynamics, pump and contractile function of the left heart].

A programme is presented for the calculation of parameters reflecting pump and contractile functions of the left ventricular myocardium on Soviet-made microcomputer B3-34. The programme makes it possible to intensify studies 2.5-3-fold, assess hemodynamics many times at different stages of the investigation, obtain results and promptly give practical recommendations, which is of utmost importance in intensive care and resuscitation.
