An assessment of the indicators of the systolic and diastolic functions of the left ventricle was made in 52 patients against the background of electrostimulation with a dual chamber electro-cardiostimulator with different atrioventricular delays (185, 125 and 79 ms). Different variants of the reactions to electrostimulation with a shorter atrioventricular delay were detected: the positive dynamics of the diastolic indicators was registered in the hypertrophic type of the diastolic dysfunction, aggravation of the diastolic disorders--in the restrictive type.
