Hemodynamic effects of molsidomine in patients with heart failure following acute myocardial infarction.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Firm evidence exists for reduction in mortality and morbidity by lipid-lowering therapy in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), yet a significant proportion remain untreated. This prospective study determined the effectiveness of a planned strategy of management using a cardiac rehabilitation nurse i...
