Feasibility of physical training in post-infarct patients with left ventricular aneurysm: a haemodynamic study.

abstract：:Antiarrhythmic agents may depress cardiac contractility and worsen heart failure. Flecainide is an effective antiarrhythmic drug, but when administered orally in patients with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, its effect on LV function is unknown. To assess the effects of flecainide on cardiac function, LV ejection f...
