Abstract. Background. … Aim. Assessment of metabolic therapy effects in patients with various forms of chronic ischemic heart disease based on trimetazidin study. The assessment of the clinical effect of treatment, influence of treatment on the condition of myocardium and its function, structural parameters of heart, and on dosed physical activity. Material and methods. Patients with the diagnosis confirmed according to clinical, technical and laboratory data, took part in the study. Patient’s characteristics varied from stable angina as an isolated form to its combination with other forms of chronic heart diseases. Research was conducted according to the following protocol. The first inspection included an assessment of clinical symptoms, standard electrocardiography, Holter monitoring, echocardiography under the standard protocol for left ventricle function assessment, and the 6-minute walking test. Frequency of angina attacks, breathlessness, and heart intermittence were assessed. The sizes of heart chambers, thickness of walls and integral function of left ventricle were defined along with arrhythmia, conductivity disorders, symptoms of myocardium ischemia were checked. During treatment control examinations were conducted. Results and discussion. Application of metabolic therapy in complex with standard drug treatment in patients with various forms of chronic ischemic heart disease leads to improvement in various functional indicators. Trimetazidin introduction decreased angina attacks and physical activity breathlessness episodes. The received results confirm validity of inclusion this treatment in complex therapy of patients with chronic ischemic heart disease. Conclusion. We demonstrated that even medium-term metabolic therapy in patients with various forms of chronic ischemic heart disease reduces the symptoms of the disease, improves a functional condition of a myocardium, and increases exercise tolerance.

Key words: metabolic therapy, chronic ischemic heart disease, echocardiography.
