[Comparative characteristics of quality of life and physical status of patients with ischemic heart disease and aortic valve disease].
For comparison of physical status and quality of life of patients we analyzed 2 clinical groups: patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) and aortic valve disease. Using original methodology of bringing results of questionnaire " Nottingham Health Profile " to functional classification we had a possibility to compare quality of life of patients with functional classes of physical working capacity and NYHA classification. Subjective component inserted into NYHA classification and quality of life questionnaire leads to substantial discrepancy with objective data on physical working capacity. In most cases patients of both clinical groups subjectively overestimate functional capacity of their organism. In patients with IHD most significant limitations manifest in psychic sphere of life, while in patients with aortic valve disease - in physical sphere of life, what demonstrates great effect of psychosomatic factor in development of IHD.
