The effect of high-dose intravenous nitroglycerin on cardiovascular hemodynamic features and left ventricular function at rest and during exercise in patients with exertional angina

Intravascular pressures, cardiac output and left ventricular function were measured at rest and during exercise in 14 patients with stable angina pectoris before and during an intravenous nitroglycerin infusion. Nitroglycerin was infused at a rate sufficient to reduce mean arterial pressure at rest...
