Predicting the coronary atherosclerosis severity in cardiac patients
Background. Coronary atherosclerosis is an ongoing pathological process, varying from asymptomatic forms to angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and even sudden cardiac death. Early identification of persons with an increased risk of the severe atherosclerosis will promote adequate diagnostic and...

Background. Coronary atherosclerosis is an ongoing pathological process, varying from asymptomatic forms to angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and even sudden cardiac death. Early identification of persons with an increased risk of the severe atherosclerosis will promote adequate diagnostic and therapeutic measures to prevent cardiovascular complications.
Aim. To make a prognostic model determining the probability of a severe coronary atherosclerosis in cardiac patients.
Material and methods. The actual study included 116 patients of cardiology departments with various degree of coronary atherosclerosis measured by coronary angiography: group I 70% coronary stenosis (50% in case of left main coronary artery), group II those with less severe atherosclerotic process. All patients underwent electrocardiography (ECG) at rest and Holter monitoring.
