Abstract
The modern methods of treatment of acute myocardial infarction allow to avoid the early postinfarction remodelling but increase the number of patients with chronic heart failure and preserved systolic function of heart. According to the results of our study, the stiffness of the great arteries is increased among patients with chronic heart failure and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, developed after myocardial infarction. In addition the severity of heart failure depends on the increase of pulse wave velocity. The positive correlations between increased stiffness of the great arteries and the levels of BNP and NTproBNP are determined among chronic heart failure patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction in one year after myocardial infarction.
