[Sanatorium rehabilitation of deep coal mine workers of Donetsk after myocardial infarction].
The article contains a study of 529 myocardial infarction cases in coal miners with provisional assessments of their health states after the rehabilitation course. Inadequacy of the resort treatment procedures was established, the clinico-functional examinations of the patients were irregular and limited to one or two procedures, which hampered the objective assessment of the measures taken. The drug treatment procedures were also inadequate both in respect of the patients' health conditions and with regard to specific drug prescriptions, dosages and frequency of administration. The results of the prolonged study revealed that 50% rehabilitation cases were unduly handled and returned to clinic with health complications after 6 months. The rehabilitation course did not include the psychotherapeutic rehabilitation component, which would be of paramount importance for the patients under the new health circumstances. Out-patient admission epicrises were not performed whatsoever, or were of a low quality, thus accounting for future rehabilitation failures.
