    Abstract:
    Short-term results of rehabilitation of 1046 CHD patients at a cardiological sanatorium in mountains at average altitude (1600 m above the sea level) were studied. Large focal myocardial infarction (MI) was found in 738 of them, small focal MI in 249, and acute focal myocardial dystrophy of ischemic genesis in 59. Of 1046 patients considerable improvement of the status after rehabilitation therapy at the sanatorium was noted in 27.6%, improvement in 64.5%, no changes in 6.1%, deterioration in 1.7%; one patient died. This type of therapy in a mountainous climate at average altitude yielded good immediate results in most of the patients (92.06%) with MI and could be recommended for rehabilitation of CHD patients at the 2nd stage of treatment at a sanatorium.
