Myocardial ischemia during sexual activity in patients with coronary artery disease

Ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring was used to detect the occurrence of ischemia during intercourse in patients with coronary artery disease. The pathogenic mechanism involved in spontaneous ischemia during coitus is similar to the mechanism responsible for ischemia produced in the exercise...

Zusammenfassung:	Ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring was used to detect the occurrence of ischemia during intercourse in patients with coronary artery disease. The pathogenic mechanism involved in spontaneous ischemia during coitus is similar to the mechanism responsible for ischemia produced in the exercise laboratory.
