Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate influence of atorvastin on the repolarisation phase of cardiomyocytes. If there is any, it could be a part of positive "non-lipid" effect of statins in therapy of ischaemic heart disease.

Study hypothesis: atorvastin will decrease heterogeneity of repolarisation of cardiomyocytes in comparison with placebo

Conditions

  • Heterogeneity of Cardiomyocytes Repolarisation
  • Autonomic Changes of Cardiomyocytes Repolarisation

Interventions
