[Analysis of some exercise test parameters in patients 12 months after myocardial infarction].
This study comprised 102 patients (70 men--32 women) in mean age 57 +/- 7.8 year after noncomplicated myocardial infarction. Thirty five patients were after anterior infarction (group I), 36 after inferior infarction (group II) and 31 after subendocardial infarction (non Q wave) (group III). Exercise tests were performed always in morning, on ergometer Medicor. This study was continued until restriction symptoms appeared or until the limit of 85% of the pulse rate adequate to the age. Assessment of effort and load tolerance as well as ST segment depression on ECG and the kind of effort pain, was performed. The minimal tolerance of effort in patients after non Q infarction has been found. Coronary efficiency was the worst in patients after inferior and non Q myocardial infarction.
