Clinical-hemodynamic and anti-ischemic effects ivabradine and nebivolol ischemic heart disease with left ventricular dysfunction

The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of Ivabradine (available under the brandnames of Procoralan, Coralan, Corlentor, Coraxan, "Servier", France) and Nebivolol (Nebilet, "Berlin-Chemie", Germany) with combination of standard therapy in patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction. A total of 72 patients (mean age 57.3±4,5 years) have been observed during 6 months. Patients were divided into 3 groups (standard therapy; standard therapy and Nebilet; standard therapy and Coraxan). The results showed that Coraxan with combination therapy compared optimally reduced heart rate and ensure a proper anti-ischemic effect, expressed as reduced left ventricular dysfunction, improved the degree of congestive heart failure than the group Nebilet.
