Hemodynamic measurements before and during graded leg-up tilt were performed in 20 patients on the 1st and 3rd day following myocardial infarction. In those with an elevated pulmonary capillary pressure (greater than 11 mm Hg), independent of the cardiac index, the tilt-test (i.e. an additional increase in preload) unmasked heart failure. When applied to test drug responses, furosemide (n = 7) reduced the tilt-stimulated cardiac index with an attendant fall in pulmonary capillary pressure; nitroglycerine (n = 7) did not change cardiac index but reduced the pulmonary capillary pressure.
