Trimetazidine is a new metabolic antiischemic agent, which increases the tolerance of cardiomyocytes to ischemia. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of additional trimatazidine therapy in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICMP) in comparison with standard therapy of cardiac insufficiency. According to the results of the study, trimetazidine improves the clinical status, functional class of cardiac insufficiency, left ventricular ejection fraction, in ICMP patients. Trimetazidine increases physical exercise tolerance according to the results of six-minute walking test. Thus, the optimization of myocardial energetic metabolism may be a promising perspective in the treatment of coronary heart disease with systolic dysfunction. |
