Established was the rate of interventricular septum asymmetrical hypertrophy and left auricle exstasia in vibration disease patients as a result of local vibration. The left ventricle myocardium contraction in major parameters (ventricular ejection, maximum ejection, ejection time and volume, the myocardium circular contraction rate and anterior-posterior contraction, systolic ejection rate) were not affected to a significant degree. The left ventricular systolic function was tending to decrease in vibration disease cases combined with IHD and AH. Desirability of using EchoCG in combination with load testing was proposed for the differential diagnosis of metabolic coronary lesions of the myocardium in vibration disease patients.
