EARLY CARDIAC REHABILITATION IN ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION PATIENTS AND ITS FEATURES

Patients that have undergone myocardial infarction require inclusion in the treatment program of cardiac rehabilitation as a component of secondary prevention. Rehabilitation potential in patients with myocardial infarction was investigated according to a mathematical model that included indicators of hospital mortality, myocardial reperfusion, anxiety and depression, myocardial contractility, comorbidity and prehospital physical activity. The individual rehabilitation program according to the level of rehabilitation potential contributed to the early expansion of the physical exercise mode to the ward mode in patients of the experimental group for 2.83 +/- 0.13 days compared with 3.57 +/- 0.14 days in the control group, the baseline heart rate was 73.2 +/- 1.72 beats per minute, and 78.4 +/- 1.13 beats per minute, respectively. According to the results of submaximal testing, the distance in the experimental group was 694.7 +/- 38.4 m, in the control group - 584.2 +/- 40.7 m (p<0.05). Assessment of rehabilitation potential provides determination of optimal terms and methods of cardiac rehabilitation.
