    Abstract:
    During the last decade, the relation between psychosocial factors and patient's personality in front of the risk of an acute myocardial infarction and his health progress after the infarction has fully been investigated. The patient's personality and a number of factors related to his job-carrier and family environment have been proved to be very important. The effect of patient's behaviour, educational level, social and psychological status in the progress of coronary heart disease have especially pointed out. The myocardial infarction is a serious disease which can alter the patient and his close family's way of life due to its financial among the other consequences. This influences the members of the family as an entity and alters their life in many ways. The present study aims to investigate how the myocardial infarction as an expected or unexpected event affects differently and at which degree the behaviour of patient's family.
