[Significance of clinical and functional diagnostic findings for the physical rehabilitation ability of the patients with heart infarct].

In 75 patients with condition after myocardial infarction or chronic ischaemic heart disease, respectively, was tested to what extent from clinical and functional-diagnostic findings prognostic estimations concerning the regaining of a cardiocirculatory functional capacity corresponding to age are possible by a complex rehabilitation programme. A daily ergometer training lasting eight weeks which was individually dosed was in the centre of rehabilitation. It was shown that from the findings of ergometry with permanent ECG-registration the effect of rehabilitation, as a rule, can be predicted.
