Data are presented on the effect of nitroglycerin upon the intracardiac haemodynamics studied by means of echocardiography in normal individuals and in patients with ischaemic heart disease. Three types of changes in the intracardiac haemodynamics under the effect of the drug were revealed. The possible mechanism of action of nitroglycerin is discussed in the light of the obtained data.
