Abstract:
The article analyses the current state of the problem of cardiomyoplasty as a new method for the treatment of patients with myocardial cardiac insufficiency. The authors show the experimental and clinical material on the possibility and efficacy of using skeletal muscles for improving myocardial contractility and raising the cardiac index. Experience gained in our country (6 operations) in cardiomyoplasty in patients with severe form of ischemic heart disease is discussed. The authors used an original Soviet produced cardiosynchronized electroneurostimulator "Stiminak" for stimulation of the muscles. Analysis of personal experimental material allows new ways for the development of the problem to be planned.
