[Role of hemodynamic factors and heart volume in the prognosis of acute cardiac insufficiency during the early postoperative period in patients with mitral valve stenosis]. / Znachenie gemodinamicheskikh faktorov i velichiny ob''ema serdtsa v prognozirovanii ostroi serdechnoi nedostatochnosti v rannem posleoperatsionnom periode u bol'nykh mitral'nym stenozom.

Investigations performed in 172 patients have shown that the state of the myocardium (such parameters as the heart volume, degree of lung hypertension, end-diastolic pressure in the right and left ventricles) is of great importance in pathogenesis of the development of acute heart failure in the early postoperative period in patients with mitral stenosis of the IIIrd and IVth stage of the blood circulation insufficiency.
