Effect of digoxin and diuretics on high altitude left ventricular dysfunction.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Right ventricular free wall (RVFW) ischemia impairs global RV performance and may result in acute hemodynamic compromise. However, RV function and hemodynamic performance typically improve spontaneously over time. This study was designed to determine whether reperfusion facilitates recovery of function in th...
