Abstract
66 patients with 2 and 3 vessel coronary heart disease were studied before and after complete successful revascularization. Hemodynamic measurements and biplane left ventricular angiograms were obtained at rest and during supine bicycle exercise.--After operation a significant overall decrease of LVEDP with exercise was seen; exercise LVEF increased in cases with left main disease and in most cases with double vessel disease and double bypass. Inconsistant response was present in 3 vessel disease. Improvement of left ventricular dynamics with exercise in advanced coronary disease after complete revascularization can be expected mainly in 2 vessel disease and left main coronary disease.
