A study of total and segmental myocardial hemodynamics and contractility has demonstrated a close relationship between segmental disorders and the type and site of postinfarction left-ventricular aneurysms. A direct close correlation was established between total and segmental hemodynamic disorders, excepting the left-ventricular aneurysm area. A close correlation was also demonstrated between myocardial contractility and ejection fraction parameters in three left-ventricular segments. Standardized trisegmental hemodynamic and contractility analysis is shown to reflect left-ventricular myocardial condition in patients with postinfarction cardiosclerosis and aneurysms of the heart.
