Failure of Mannitol to Reduce Electrocardiographic Evidence of Myocardial Ischemia during Upright Exercise Despite Augmentation of Cardiac Output

摘要: 9 patients with clinically manifest ischemic heart disease underwent hemodynamic and electrocardiographic monitoring at rest, during several levels of submaximal near maximal exercise on a treadmill in recovery. The observations were repeated following infusion mannitol. Despite augmentation cardiac output exercise, the evidence ischemia worsened.
