Abstract
Modern methods of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treatment allow to avoid early postinfarction remodeling, but increase the number of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and preserved systolic heart function. The stiffness of the main arteries in patients with CHF and preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) after AMI has been found to be increased. The severity of CHF depends on the increase in pulse wave velocity. The relationship between increased arterial stiffness and BNP and NT-pro BNP levels in patients with CHF with preserved LV EF 1 year after AMI was revealed.
