[Effectiveness of physical rehabilitation in myocardial infarct taking into account long-term observation data].
The article discusses the results of a one-year follow-up of 439 persons who had suffered from macrofocal or transmural myocardial infarction; aneurysm of the heart was suspected in 128 of them. Four to six months after recovery, 60.1% of patients with suspected aneurysm of the heart and 69.1% of those with transmural or macrofocal myocardial infarction were engaged in work involving small physical exertion. Mortality in the follow-up period after the end of the acute period of the disease was 8.6%, the incidence of recurrent myocardial infarction, 9.3%. Persons who had resumed work one year after recovery endured physical exertion better. There was no statistically significant difference in the frequency of recurrent myocardial infarction and in mortality depending on the size of the infarct suffered, while incapacity for work was encountered more frequently among persons in whom cardiac aneurysm has bee suspected.
