[Quality of life of patients in post-myocardial infarct period].
Relationships between the quality of life (QL), psychological status and severity of cardiovascular impairment were studied in 96 males after anterior large-focal myocardial infarction. A positive moderately strong correlation was found between GL and left ventricular ejection fraction. Alexitimia affects the response of the patients to basic limitations diminishing QL. Alexitimia patients have harmful behavioral habits (smoking, alcohol abuse) two times more frequently than patients free of alexitimia. Adequate methods of alexitimia psychotherapeutic correction should be introduced.
