[Effectiveness of combined use of kontrykal and nitroglycerin in the acute period of myocardial infarction].

The natural history and extension of myocardial infarction were studied from parameters of precordial ECG in 35 leads and central hemodynamic findings in 100 patients with acute myocardial infarction. The least extension of myocardial lesion areas and better central hemodynamic parameters and a sharp reduction in the frequency of complications and hospital mortality in patients receiving a combined therapy with contrykal and nitroglycerin as a continuous long-term infusion within the first 24 hours of myocardial infarction as compared with the controls and in those having these agents alone.
