[Differentiated prophylaxis of recurrent myocardial infarction]
Abstract:
149 patients stated at primarily examination as healthy had subsequently myocardial infarction (MI) at the age of 28-55 years. Preinfarction mean level of the risk factors was 3.3 per a man. For 5 years after MI the patients received differentiated therapy oriented to individual features of ischemic heart disease (IHD). The response was achieved in the majority of patients. To the end of the trial repeated MI occurred in 12.8% of the patients. 80.1% of them had angina pectoris (89.2%-angina of class I and II). 89.3% of the patients were able to work, 87.2% have lowered their mean level of risk factors to 1.5. It is demonstrated that a favourable course of postmyocardial infarction IHD was determined by adequacy of prophylactic measures rather than by health status before MI.
