Return to work after acute myocardial infarction--listen to your doctor!
Predictors of return to work after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are not fully established. In multivariate analysis adjusted for sex, age and type of intervention, only doctor's advice remained associated with return to work (HR 47.6, 95% CI 4.7-500). This suggests that doctor's advice is a comprehensive integration of patient interview, clinical examination, evidence based medicine and clinical experience, and thus the key predictor of return to work after AMI.
