Abstract
Experiments on dogs showed that energostim, a directly acting antihypoxant, injected 15 min after occlusion of the upper one-third of the left descending branch of the interventricular coronary artery produced a pronounced cardioprotective effect. The effect was confirmed by electron microscopy (evaluation the necrotic focus), biochemical tests of the heart and blood, and changes in intracardiac hemodynamics (recovery of systolic and diastolic functions). The cardioprotective effect of energostim greatly surpasses that of routine therapy applied during acute myocardium infarction.
