Abstract
Left and right ventricular diastolic function was investigated at dopp ler echocardiography in patients with myocardiodystrophy exposed to or ganic aromatic solvents (30 female house painters). The control group consisted of healthy females and females with autonomic-dyshormonal my ocardiodystrophy. The study group exhibited diastolic dysfunction char acterized by disturbed active relaxation assessed by duration of isome tric left and right ventricular relaxation.
