[Character peculiarities in patients with various forms of ischemic heart disease and hypertension]. 1985

G V Kavtaradze

A total of 202 patients with coronary heart disease and 115 patients with hypertension were examined to study their specific and frustration characteristics. Isenk's questionnaire and Rosentsveig's test were used. In CHD and postinfarction cardiosclerosis extraversion prevailed, in hypertension intraversion was more common. The indicator of neuroticism was high among all the patients under study. The choleric temperament prevailed in angina pectoris. Choleric and melancholic peculiarities were typical of patients with postinfarction cardiosclerosis and hypertension. Extrapunitive reactions were clearly revealed by Rosenzweig's test in all the study groups.
