Surgical aspects of balloon valvuloplasty (BVP)
Serious complications (except valvular injuries) which have to be treated operatively as an emergency rarely occur during balloon valvuloplasty (BVP). For this reason a surgical stand-by during the procedure i...

Plasma concentrations of atrial natriuretic peptide (α- h-ANP 1–28) during exercise and relationship to hemodynamic parameters in man
To elucidate the diagnostic value of Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP), ANP plasma concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassay in 15 patients with coronary or valvular heart diseases who were to undergo ...

Acute haemodynamic effects of urapidil in patients with chronic left ventricular failure
Urapidil, a new alpha1-adrenoceptor blocking drug, has been shown to be effective in the treatment of hypertension. Ten normotensive patients with severe congestive heart failure were given Urapidil 25 mg i.v. tw...

Balloon angioplasty in congenital heart disease
Successful transluminal recanalisation of arteriosclerotic obstructions using large dilating catheters was reported in 1964 by Dotter and Judkins [1]. The method was extended by Grüntzig to transluminal dilati...

Videodensitometric Measurement of Coronary Flow
The first attempts to measure coronary artery flow velocities using densitometry were done nearly 15 years ago (Rutishauser et al. 1967, 1970a, 1970b; Smith et al. 1971). Methodological improvements have been ...

Influence of Nitroglycerin on Aortic Compliance, Capacity of the Windkessel, and Peripheral Resistance
In recent years it has been established that the effect of nitroglycerin (NTG) is mainly related to its extracardial factors. Most of the investigators found a reduction only in preload [2, 9, 12], while other...

Effects of Nitroglycerin on Left Ventricular and Myocardial Function in Aortic Stenosis
The beneficial effects of nitroglycerin (NTG) in ischemic heart disease are due mainly to a reduction in preload [1, 2] and, consequently, in myocardial oxygen demands [5, 8]. However, both a secondary effect ...
