METHOD OF RISK ANALYSIS OF RECURRENT ISCHEMIC ATTACKS FOLLOWING MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: patient is examined on the first day of myocardial infraction that involves routine applanation tonometry; pulse wave velocity (PWV) is determined, and an augmentation index (AI) is calculated. If the AI value is 29.4 % and higher, the PWV is 11 m/s and higher, a risk of recurrent ischemic attacks in the early and remote periods following MI is considered to be high. If the AI value is 16.2% to 29.3%, the PWV is 7.6 m/s to 10.9 m/s, a risk of recurrent ischemic attacks in the early and remote periods following MI is considered to be medium. If the AI value is -43.3% to -64.5%, the PWV is 5.8 m/s to 7.5 m/s, a risk of recurrent ischemic attacks in the early and remote periods following MI is considered to be low.;EFFECT: method provides higher reliability of risk analysis of recurrent ischemic attacks following myocardial infraction.;1 tbl, 1 ex
