[Evaluation of the risk of fatal outcome in patients with stable stenocardia over a 5-year period].
The results have been analyzed of the 5-year prospective observation over patients with associated coronary heart disease (CHD) and stable angina pectoris without grave concomitant diseases and heart failure signs. A rule of prediction has been elaborated enabling one to distinguish on the basis of the clinical data a group of patients in whom the disease runs a favourable course. It is unlikely that in the future such a group of patients would require any combined instrumental examination or surgical intervention. The use of the common therapeutic measures (long-acting nitrates, beta-blockers, and calcium antagonists) can be recognized as quite sufficient and effective. The clinical observation can be limited by the patient's attendance of the health center for repeated examination and specification of the further prognosis, which is to be made once a year. The above-said confirms the importance of defining CHD prognosis, since the properly chosen tactics of such patients' management makes it possible to attain the maximal efficacy of the diagnostic and treatment measures and to save costs as well.
