title: [Occurrence of pathologies of the psychic sphere among the patients in the period of the angioplasty on coronary blood vessels].
abstract: The aim of our study was to reveal pathologies of the psychic sphere (symptomatology of alarm disorders, depression and sleep disturbance) in several days after the angioplasty on coronary blood vessels. There have been examined 70 patients (20 women and 50 men) at 3-5 days after the angioplasty on coronary blood vessels. Their age ranged from 40 to 75 years. The main cause of hospitalization of these patients was the acute coronary syndrome in 50% of the cases, non-stable stenocardia in 20% and acute myocardial infarction on 30% of the cases. There has been studied the percentage rates of alarm disorders, depression and sleep disturbance among these patients. It was revealed that alarm disorders in high level occurred in 54,28%, depression in 32,85% and sleep disturbance in 72,85%. Among the majority of these patients the degree of coronary occlusion was from 70 to 90%. On the basis of the above-mentioned indices there can be concluded that there exists a considerable correlation between the degree of coronary occlusion and the occurrence of pathologies of the psychic sphere.
