Aims Cardiac rehabilitation including exercise training is of proven value in ischaemic heart disease. However, elderly patients frequently are not encouraged to participate in such programmes. This...
Ståhle, A., Nordlander, R., Bergfeldt, L.
Aims Reduced heart rate variability is associated with an unfavourable prognosis in patients with ischaemic heart disease. Whether physical training can modify this risk factor is not definitely...

Aims This study evaluates the feasibility and safety of a completely implantable system for long-term ambulatory monitoring of important haemodynamic parameters in patients with severe...
Long-term recording of cardiac output via an implantable haemodynamic monitoring device (1996)
Ohlsson, Å, Bennett, T., Ottenhoff, F., Bitkover, C., Kjellström, B., Nordlander, R., ...
Long-term monitoring of central haemodynamics with implanted monitoring systems might be valuable in managing heart failure patients. Such systems offer an opportunity for repeated...
OHLSSON, Å, BECK, R., BENNETT, T., NORDLANDER, R., RYDÉN, J., ÅSTRÖM, H., ...
Right ventricle venous oxygen saturation was studied in 10 heart failure patients over 24 h using a lead equipped with an oxygen biosensor inserted temporarily. At the same time a pressure sensor,...
Thirty-seven patients with chronic, stable angina pectoris were included in a randomized, double-blind cross-over study to assess the efficacy of once- and twice-daily dosage regimens of 60 mg...
PERNOW, J., URIUDA, Y., WANG, Q-D., LI, X-S., NORDLANDER, R., RYDEÉN, L.
The protective effect of the nitric oxide (NO) substrate L-arginine on myocardial ischaemialreperfusion injury was studied in pigs. Four groups were subjected to 45 min ischaemia and 4 h reperfusion....
HAGA, Y., HATORI, N., NORDLANDER, M., NORDLANDER, R., SIÖQUIST, P. O., RYDÉN, L.
Effects on the ischaemic and reperfused myocardium of felodipine, a vasoselective calcium blocker, retrogradely infused into the coronary vein was investigated in a porcine model. Sixteen open-chest...
Atrial rate-responsive pacing in sinus node disease (1990)
ROSENQVIST, M., ARÉN, C., KRISTENSSON, B.E., NORDLANDER, R., SCHÜLLER, H.
Patients with sinus node disease (SND) who are unable to achieve an adequate increase in heart rate during exercise are candidates for atrial rate-responsive pacing (AAI-R). We have implanted 40...
HEDMAN, A., HJEMDAHL, P., NORDLANDER, R., ÅSTRÖM, H.
The effects of mental stress and dynamic exercise on central haemodynamic variables and cardiac sympathetic nerve activity were studied in 15 patients during both fixed rate ventricular-inhibited (...
Enzyme release after elective cardioversion (1990)
JAKOBSSON, J., ÖDMANSSON, I., NORDLANDER, R.
Electrical cardioversion is reported to be associated with some degree of skeletal muscle and myocardial damage. In the present study, total creatine kinase (S-CK) and the activity of the subunit...
BELLINDER, G., NORDLANDER, R., PEHRSSON, S K., ÅSTRÖM, H.
Atrial pacing (AAI) in sick sinus syndrome (SSS) has been questioned because of the risk of distal conduction disturbances (DCD) and atrial tachyarrhythmias. The authors studied the incidence of...
NYBERG, G., CARLENS, P., LINDSTRÖM, E., LUNDMAN, T., NORDLANDER, R., REHNQVIST, N., ...
Twenty-four patients with stable exercise-induced angina pectoris entered a double-blind cross-over study. Isosorbide-5-mononitrate (5-ISMN) 60 mg in a controlled release formulation (Durules®)...
Consecutive patients admitted to a coronary care unit (CCU) during one year were studied. The diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction was not substantiated by our criteria in 206 of the patients...
Pehrsson, S K, Hjemdahl, P, Nordlander, R, Aström, H
Cardiac sympathetic function was assessed by measuring the coronary sinus overflow of noradrenaline and dopamine at rest and during supine exercise in eight patients with high degree atrioventricular...
Serum digoxin determination in outpatients--need for standardization.
1 Blood samples were taken from 30 outpatients for serum digoxin analysis before and after 5 min-4 h of rest in the supine position. 2 The digoxin concentration increased significantly during rest...
Quinidine dosage, with special reference to an oral loading dose schedule.
1 Plasma concentrations of quinidine were analyzed in 52 cardiac patients after different oral loading doses and during different maintenance dosage intervals using both conventional and sustained...
