[Cardiologic-psychosomatic primary prevention of coronary heart disease].
Although there exist many relevant data about the significant influence of psychosocial risk factors for coronary artery disease, there is no reliable concept for an integrated psycho-somato-social primary prevention for CAD. So this article is to be a first attempt on such a psycho-somatic primary prevention, based on the well known psycho-social risk factors. Referring to the pathological and psycho-physiological effects of these risk factors the need of equal assessment of all risk factors will be discussed. There will also be introduced a comprehensive risk evaluation and the possibility of a psychcardiological consultation.
