The aim of the study was to assess the effect of 1-year captopril therapy initiated 1-4 days (mean: 21-24 h) after beginning of AMI on exercise performance and myocardial ischemia during cycle ergometer test. 93 pts with first documented Q-wave AMI, aged L 70 years were qualified for the study. 50 of the pts were randomly included to the captopril group, 43 to the control group. In both groups pts with inferior AMI (accordingly 66% and 72%) and normal LV function (EFor = 40% in ECHO) were prevailed in the study. Captopril therapy was initiated with the dose of 3.125 mg, then every 8 hours the dose of 6.25 mg was administered in Ist and IInd day, 12.5 mg--in III day and 25 mg from IV day on. Exercise cycle ergometer tests (ExT) were performed in every pt at 14 day, and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after AMI. The ExT began at 25 W of power and was increased at 2-minute intervals by 25 W until fatigue or other typical cause of termination of the test. In the captopril group duration of ExT lengthened significantly in comparison with initial test (on 14 day) after 3 (6.4 +/- 1.47 vs 5.3 +/- 1.54 min; p0.01), 6 (6.7 +/- 1.59 vs 5.3 +/- 1.54 min; p0.001) and 12 months (7.0 +/- 1.22 vs 5.3 +/- 1.54 min; p0.001). In the control group exercise time was longer after 6 and 12 months compared to initial examination (accordingly 6.4 +/- 1.43 and 6.5 +/- 1.26 vs 4.8 +/- 1.47 min; p0.001). However, the differences regarding this time between the captopril and control group were not significant on consecutive control stages. The final result of the test (positive, negative, doubtful) did not differ significantly in both groups on consecutive examination stages. Captopril administered during 1-year period after AMI slightly improved physical working capacity (accelerated the improvement) and had no effect on ischemia during estimated cycle ergometer test. These results may depend on inclusion to the study predominantly pts with normal LV function and interior MI. |
