Effect of digoxin on right ventricular function in severe chronic airflow obstruction. A controlled clinical trial.
Abstract
The effect of digoxin on the right and left ventricular ejection fractions in 15 patients with pulmonary heart disease caused by severe chronic airflow obstruction was studied in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. All patients were ambulatory and had clinical features of right but not left ventricular dysfunction.
