Aim: To identify lipidemic, hemostasiological, and hemodynamic indicators associated with the risk of cardiovascular death in high- and very high-risk patients.
Subjects And Methods: One hundred and forty-eight patients whose mean age was 50.8 +/- 4.
The study was aimed at elucidating the relationship between the severity of atherosclerotic lesions in carotid arteries and cardiac pathology in 182 elderly patients subjected to vascular and extravascular surgical treatment. They were divided into 2 groups differing in the degree of atherosclerosis. Group 1 was comprised of 93 patients (mean age 64+/-05 yr) without stenosis of internal carotid artery or with stenosis of less than - 50%, group 2 included 89 patients (mean age 67+/-0.

To 32 patients obsidan was administered intravenously (0.1 mg/kg), then orally for 2-3 days every 3-4 hours to lessen cardiac contraction rate by 20-30 per cent and to obtain moderate hypotension and after than 60-120 mg per 24 hours.
