[Subjective attitude of myocardial infarct patients to work and its objective occupational medical expert assessment].
The subjective attitude of 283 patients with myocardial infarction toward work was studied and 71.4% of them were found to be psychologically prepared to return to their professional occupation. Most of these patients were intellectuals with higher education. They motivated their wish to work with love for their profession and the attempt to avoid social isolation by working. Negative attitude toward labour showed 81 patients (28.6%) with the motivation that they could not cope with their professional obligations. The subjective attitude of the patients toward labour to a large extent corresponded to the objective evaluation of their fitness for work by the special medical committees.
