[The diagnosis of myocardial infarct at a young age in the prehospital stage].
A study is presented of 103 patients with myocardial infarction (age: from 23 to 41 years) and 100 patients over 55 years-old. The younger patients showed rarely stenocardia in the preinfarction period, macrofocal lesions prevailed, more pronounced were leucocytosis, hyperenzymemia, hyperlipidemia and hyperthermia, rarely cardiogenic shock, cardiac asthma, pulmonary edema and complex rhythm disorders. Diagnostic errors were observed in 48.5% at the prehospital stage in the younger patients. The most frequent causes of errors were awareness of the physician for coronary pathology in the young, inadequate anamnesis screening and examination of patients.
