A study was made of exercise tolerance and indices of central hemodynamics in 151 patients with "isolated" angina and its combination with cardialgia, arterial hypertension and postinfarctional cardiosclerosis. Daily attacks of angina of effort (III functional class) were noted in all the patients. In patients with "isolated" angina and angina in postinfarctional cardiosclerosis exercise tolerance was the lowest. It was the highest in angina combined with cardialgia. The lowest indices of cardiac output were observed in patients with "isolated" angina and angina in postinfarctional cardiosclerosis. The best effect of nitrate therapy was obtained in patients with typical angina.
