[Sensitivity to the psycho-emotional test and the characteristics of the psychological status of ischemic heart disease patients].
Sixty-three coronary patients were subjected to mental testing, using the SMALL test and Kettell's 16 PF test. Positive test results were significantly more frequent in patients of the second and third functional classes with neurotic anxiety-depressive disturbances. In patients of the fourth functional class, the results of the tests were not dependent on their psychological status. Patients with the most marked neurotic disturbances may develop an anginal attack accompanied with ischemic ECG changes during the mental test.
