The objective is here to study the long and intermediate term clinical and haemodynamic effects of enalapril during chronic heart failure resistant to the classic digitalis-diuretics treatment. The study involves 16 patients (12 males and 4 females), with a mean age of 50 years. Before being given enalapril, 12 patients were at stage IV and 4 patients at stage II of the NYHA; the mean capillary pressure was quite elevated (30 +/- 6.3 mmHg), the cardiac index has collapsed (2.12 +/- 0.38 l.min.m2) and the stroke fraction (SF) is 0.28 +/- 0.08. At the 1st month control, there is a definite functional and haemodynamic improvement of the pre-charge as well as the post-charge. This improvement is still present at 6 months. The ventricular function is improved (SF = 0.38 +/- 0.13; p less than 0.001). The clinical tolerance of enalapril is excellent and the only adverse reaction is a transient deterioration of the renal function in a patient with diabetic glomerulopathy.
