[Evaluation of the external respiratory and lesser circulatory function in acute postinfarct cardiac aneurysm]. 1977

P M Kireev, and I F Martynov, and K B Budaeva

The function of pulmonary respiration was studied in 28 patients with acute postinfarction aneurysms of the heart, in 20 normal individuals and in 25 patients with transmural myocardial infarction non-complicated by by cardiac aneurysm. A comparative analysis of the obtained data has shown that patients with acute postinfarction aneurysms of the heart have more severe pulmonary respiration disorders than those with transmural myocardial infarctions. The degree of these disorders grows in accordance with the degree of circulation insufficiency. The authors believe the main cause of such pulmonary respiration disorders in cardiac aneurysms to consist in a reduced contractile capacity of the heart muscle with subsequent disturbances in the intracardiac haemodynamics and the development of pulmonary hypertension. The authors recommend to take into account the degree of pulmonary respiration disorders when determining the vital and occupational prognosis, as well as the indications for a surgical management of this complication of myocardial infarction.

D012119 Respiration The act of breathing with the LUNGS, consisting of INHALATION, or the taking into the lungs of the ambient air, and of EXHALATION, or the expelling of the modified air which contains more CARBON DIOXIDE than the air taken in (Blakiston's Gould Medical Dictionary, 4th ed.). This does not include tissue respiration ( Breathing

D005260 Female Females
D006322 Heart Aneurysm A localized bulging or dilatation in the muscle wall of a heart (MYOCARDIUM), usually in the LEFT VENTRICLE. Blood-filled aneurysms are dangerous because they may burst. Fibrous aneurysms interfere with the heart function through the loss of contractility. True aneurysm is bound by the vessel wall or cardiac wall. False aneurysms are HEMATOMA caused by myocardial rupture. Cardiac Aneurysm,Aneurysm, Cardiac,Aneurysm, Heart,Aneurysms, Cardiac,Aneurysms, Heart,Cardiac Aneurysms,Heart Aneurysms
D006439 Hemodynamics The movement and the forces involved in the movement of the blood through the CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM. Hemodynamic
