["Spontaneous" dynamics of mental condition of patients with myocardial infarct according to MMPI data]. 1975

V P Zaĭtsev

Dynamics of psychic status of patients with myocardial infarction was analysed on the basis of MMPI data on 587 investigations and clinical observations of 250 patients. There were observed acute stress reactions of first weeks of the disease, "joy of recovering" at the end of the 1st month of the disease; the period of some worsening of psychical status 3-11 months after the onset of myocardial infarction reflecting the difficulties of adaptation, the period of further psychical stabilization as a final stage of psychological readaptation. Comparing MMPI data of normal and pathological psychical reactions in patients with myocardial infarction the author has distinguished some differential diagnostic signs.
