Mv. Razmadze et al., CORONARY CIRCULATION AND 24-HOUR MONITORI NG FINDINGS IN PATIENTS WITH REFRACTORY ANGINA-PECTORIS, Kardiologia, 32(6), 1992, pp. 5-8
The paper compares the data of selective coronary angiography and 24-h
our monitoring in 39 patients with refractory angina pectoris. Transie
nt ST-segment changes were revealed in 79 % of the patients, ST-segmen
t depression occurring in 54 %, ST-segment evelation in 46 %, T-wave i
nversion in 38 %. A combination of ST-T interval changes and occurrenc
e of ventricular premature contraction was found in a third of the exa
minees. There was no statistically significant correlation between the
extent of major coronary lesion and the mean length of ST-segment dis
placements.
